Elephants

[MyNameIsGreat]

Hello, great mod..

Just thought I would post some issues with elephants, most are minor.

Major:
-The Rajput have elephant bodyguards, which I thought was a great idea at first. However, the bodyguard has only the ability to rally troops, and cannot kill his elephant. So when they run amok, there isn't anything you can do.

Minor:
-Elephants seem to use horse foot sounds instead of elephant ones
-Elephant riders (the ones driving) tend to float above the elephants

VERY minor :
-Elephant archers change hats at different distances (they wear different hats at different levels of zoom)

Thanks... great mod (sorry if I spelled any of these Persian/Indian names wrong :p )


Edit- On an unrelated note, naffatun (sp?) charge into h2h combat at random, usually after two or three tosses (with ammunition left)
Edit 2 (to avoid another post)- Are the rajputs the only factions to get elephants? It says Ghorids get them in custom battle, but I can't recruit them in any building, so I'm guessing they were left out? (Like armored sergeants in England vanilla)

kill elephant = kill bodyguard = kill general. Pretty bad idea. Maybe decreasing number of elephants in general bodyguard and adding lock_morale will help(that should stop them from running amok). Just my suggestion.

Additionally:

Killing elephants that run amok doesn't do anything many times. Usually only one elephant will die, and the rest will remain frozen. Sometimes it works properly, however.

i have encountered this problem too. i tried to kill an elephant that was running amok and it seemed immortal..even when 200 archers and 30 elephants were attacking it for more than 5 mins!


Ps: but i love the elephants though.
