How do I make the ai charge their elephants into melee

[SirDestroyer]

I'm a noob at modding so go easy on me.

First: post in the Q&A forum not in the tutorial one
Second: It might require some tinkling with the AI files. But remember: most elephants are missile units, they are not meant to charge into a melee. Same is true for horses: the missile ones don't charge.

Gigantus is right, you will need to change their class to heavy cavalry in export_descr_units.txt.

Find this bit of the entry for the elephant:

category         cavalry
class            missile

and change it to this:

category         cavalry
class            heavy

They should now act as heavy cavalry.

Thanks.

So simple and yet effective. +rep

On another note, since I have tried that in the past with partial success, I would also suggest adding prec in the attack attributes
