modding help

Hey guys got two questions

1. is there a way to add the surrender button from sp to mp battles?

2. On the DB table what do I edit to make the battalion in line be further apart?

Thanks any help would be wonderful.

1. is there a way to add the surrender button from sp to mp battles?

Use the UI - XML converted to export the sp UI, then the mp UI, find the button in the sp and try to copy it in the mp... No guarantee it would work.

2. On the DB table what do I edit to make the battalion in line be further apart?

I'm not sure of your question. Are you speaking about the distance between two soldiers in the same unit? Or the distance between two units?

In unit_stats_land, you have several columns with "file" and "rank" spacing. Change that to increase the distance between two soldiers in the same line, or between two lines.

@Steph, not the file and rank. I want the distance between the battalions to be greater. So if I have three battalions in line the gaps would be like this:

Now = XXX XXX SMALL space between battalions
want= XXX XXX BIG space between battalions.

If it's your army, you can place them as you want, if it's the AI army, you need to edit the groupformation.bin.

There's a tutorial for that in the workshop by The Hedge Knight.

I know I can place them as I want! I want to be able to grab three or four battalion and move them in line with a larger spacing between them. I have seen other mods that have almost no space between them and I want to know what i need to change to make this happen.

I answered that
