In the creation thread I opened a forum about me wanting to bring the little red boats back from the dead !My goal is to create something along the line of frenzyAI and diplomod, a SLC file to put along with the rest ! Any suggestions to what YOU think should be in this mod would be more than welcome ! Any code/triggers etc. I'm happy to recieve !  Please support me on this one since it is my first programmaing in SLIC. Let me know what you think of it ! Greetinx |

This leads into something I'd like to do. The Corackles (whatever those first boats you build) should have combat values. Ships should be able to fight (you can have a fight between rowboats if you are desperate enough).I know where I can change the value to give these boats a 10 attack strength. The question is, what do I need to do to have the computer recognize them as combat vessles? Is there a list of "combat craft" I need to add them to? Any help is appriciated. ------------------

BlueVoss : Yeah I think there is a file floating around in which you can specify what a boat can and cannot do, like BombardLand etc.
My guess is that that same file holds the key to your combatant peddlin' boats !  It is a feature which you a apply to that unit, what the name is I dont know ! Try some ! Good luck ! |

Yeah, I know where that is. I think the Coracles are listed as Catamarans. When I screwed around with this about a month ago, I set boats to having ZOC and the ability to pillage. I just wasnt sure if the AI looked at its units to determine if they could attack, or some file that told it just what its combat units were.You know? ------------------

In the AIdata directory there is a file called UnitBuildList.txt and I would guess you would have to add the coracles into the SEA category instead of SEA_TRANSPORT, otherwise the AI won't use it as an attack ship. |

I'll put that in tonight. Question - can it exist in BOTH lists? Can the AI use those types as both transport and attack ships?Thanks in advance. ------------------
