Area and Launching

[fudoki]

Hi,

i'm dipping my toe into editing the export_descr_unit and was wondering if anyone could tell me how to achieve the following?

i want to give my varangian guard the ability to launch people into their while engaged in melee. I've tired adding 'launching' to the attacking attr but, so far, to know avail. to clarify i want this to happen while they actually fighting, not just charging.

If anyone could help that would be great.

Cheers!

Launching will usually only work when charging (see elephants and cavalry). Not sure if it works with infantry.

It would have to be in the stat_pri_attr line.

Increase their mass would work

soldier          Varangian_Guard, 60, 0, 1

increase to something like 15

Ability to resist charges, making soldiers fly, and I think that's it.

Just tink of it as weight

oh, then with a weight of 50 my guys are gonna be making cavalry fly as well...

thanks for the help

Nope. Cavalry can't fly
