Adding grenades to melee troops
Sry in advance if there is a thread about this or sth similar, I haven't managed to find it.
I had the idea after playing with my romans in RTW this morning and thought about modding a melee unit (like Sikh Warriors or sth) to give them the ability to throw grenades and follow up with a charge (just for fun, to see if I can... please don't tell me about it being/not being used in history or how it might unbalance the game.. I really don't care)
I gave the ability to throw grenades to ranged units before (simply changed Can Throw Grenades in unit_stats_land and it worked) but for melee troops it doesn't work.. they just stand dumbly when you enable grenades in battle and order them to attack
I need someone to point me in the right direction cause I tried to give them a reloading skill value, ammo, accuracy... well I guess all the stats which ranged units have and these guys don't and I gave them the abilities of grenadiers in unit_to_unit_abilities_junctions (chevaux_de_frise etc.)
They have the proper animations cause the grenade throwing animation is in man_common_fragment so everybody has it (correct me if I'm wrong)
Anyway, after all that it still doesn't work so if anyone knows ho to do it your advice and help will be much appreciated

Re: Adding grenades to melee troops
Have you tried changing the unit class to unit_infantry_grenadier (or whatever it is)? It's one of the last columns in the unit_stats_land I think. What I'm saying is rather than making melee troops with grenades, make them grenadiers who can only use melee. No idea if it will work, but good luck
