**crpcarrot** · November 09, 2007, 04:05 AM

Hi all sorry i just wanted to ask a few questions and would appreciate any help thanks

what is the point in SS of building racing tracks other than the happiness factor?

and have any modifications been done to the affects of weather and climate in SS 4.1

Just one question though: Why not try SS 5.1?

i dont have kingdoms

**kelvintyk** · November 09, 2007, 04:19 AM

Oh i see. Regarding your question, if i'm not wrong racing tracks give an experience bonus to cavalry units. Correct me if i'm wrong.

**crpcarrot** · November 09, 2007, 04:43 AM

so u have to retrain you cavalry units at a city with a track?

since u cannot train cavalry at a city (i beleive) and there are no tracks for castles

You can always check a file called export_descr_building.txt for details.

umm ok i'm probably dumb but i really have never ever unpacked or look at those files i just wait for great people like lusted and KK to make mods i can enjoy

**kelvintyk** · November 09, 2007, 05:34 AM

I'll go check the script out and see if i can find out anything.

well i guess this thread got pushed back too much still havent got a reply about the race tracks

i have another question and i put in here so as not to keep maing new threads

catapults seem very weak against walls in SS4.1
which seige equipment is effective in SS?

**kelvintyk** · November 13, 2007, 05:18 AM

They are basically almost the same. Even cannons do average damage, not that damaging.

some useful ancillarys and traits come from racing tracks

**crpcarrot** · November 13, 2007, 09:23 AM

ok so no training at tracks right? only ancilliaries and traits thanks

so how do u bring down walls if u want to assault a castle immediately?

is this not a feasible tactic in SS
