Native Archers won't appear for the British...

[IGdood]

I've followed Plenom's(sp?) unit-adding guide to try and make Native Archer Auxiliaries available for the British and it just won't work.

I've followed all the instructions...and created a "native_american_archers_auxiliary_br" line for the required .tsv files.

I've also edited the area of recruitment tables....so the unit can be recruited.




But I also have something to ask. All that specifies what faction can recruit the Native Archer Aux seems to be the units_to_exclusive_faction_permissions file. However, when I look up the "native_american_archers_auxiliary" row, it only says "Crimean Khanate" = False.

So...judging by that one line, this means that only the Crimean Khanate can't recruit them...? Am I missing something here?

[Flobulon]

Yeah, I feel sorry for the Crimean Khanate, they can recruit hardly anything :*(
Have you edited the units_to_groupings_military_permissions? Also, are you exporting them as .tsv and then editing them or editing them from within the Pack file manager?

Check;

units_to_groupings_military_permissions_tables

and put an entry in for native archers - see if that works. Copy the one from the french and change name of group to great_britain. The more I check I think this controls what factions have access to generic units.

[Tancredii]

In fact all you need to do to allow a faction to recruit a generic unit is to add their group id (great_britain_group france_group etc) to the:

units_to_groupings_military_permissions_tables

So to add native archers to the British roster just add the line to the above table

native_american_archers_auxiliary and great_britain_group

Be careful in copying another countries line as if you don't make sure the save takes place you'll get a duplicate line and the game will crash.

[Tancredii]

So if you want to change British Grenadiers from bearskins (ahistorical) to mitres then you remove the line saying:

euro_grenadiers_bearskin and great_britain_group

then add a line saying

euro_grenadiers and great_britain_group

You could have both lines and be able to recruit either if you wanted.............

@Flobulon I've edited using the Pack Manager. No exporting.

@Tancredii Ok, thanks, I'll be testing that out on a fresh campaign...

[Tancredii]

To add archer to the British roster I made just this change. It allows brits to recruit the generic aux archer.

[IGdood]

Wow thanks! I hope that file works, because I did the changes you asked me to, and it didn't work out...

Edit: Nevermind, the file didn't work...thanks for helping me though!
