Unlimited ammo?!?!?!

[JCeasar_911]

ok so ive looked all over the data files but i couldnt find where to edit the text that says there is a limited amount of ammo. I remember from the previous TW's that it was located in the preferences folder with either true or false but now wit Medieval 2 the preference folder is almost completely empty. i have SS mod and checked there too but couldnt find the file. If anyone knows how to change the ammo count for archers and siege weapons from limited to unlimited please tell me.

You are not going to get unlimited but you can change the amount of ammo they get.

First open up the export_descr_unit.txt file in the Data folder and find the unit you want to adjust, then find the line that starts with "stat_pri" and in the following example change the 30 (in red) to a 90 and that will triple your ammo:

stat_pri         5, 1, arrow, 120, 30, missile, missile_mechanical, piercing,

You will of course have to do this for every unit you want to change (the 120 is range BTW.)

You have to unpack the game first. If it's a particular Kingdoms campaign, you'll have to unpack it.

Modding questions belong in the Mod Workshop, moved.

are the 5 , 1 stats the melee attacks as well? because if so i may be able to moddify sum pretty powerful musketeer troops by raising range and attack

[miccofl]

The 5, is the damage stat for the arrows, you would need to drop down to the "stat_sec" line for the melee stat on a missile unit.

Does anyone know if there is a maximum ammo? I've made several attempts of making a "real" monster ribault (launching 128 projectiles in one go) but they drain up ammo very fast, even when I give them ammo in the thousands.

There probably is one, but I have no idea what it is.
