Deleting units? (want to get rid of gunpowder units)

[Aranax]

Is there anyway to delete units from the mod or to restrict the use of gunpowder units?

I would remove the gunpower event or set it to fire at a ridiculous high number as say... 2010. Seems the easiest way.

Why? Units are tied to that event just the same.

Delete units file in unit_descr if you hate them (make sure you have backup file).If you want to reduce their effective just reduce their number to...16.This will make these men become Light skirmishers

But why you do that.Gunners is nice.I love them

Wait! What happen if I set unit number to...2010?

lol, I already asked this and there's apperently no way to get rid of some gundpowdered units. That or it's to complicated.

[bɑne]

Uhm.

That or it's to complicated.

Looking into your old topic shows a pretty nice answer.
Gunpowder?
Looks pretty much possible to me from the instructions.

Well from what I remember there's no way to get rid of gunners because they activate once plate armour does or something like that. And to get rid of them would cost alot of non gunpowder units. So in my eyes it's impossible. You could probly just go into the files and delete each unit but I'd rather not try.

My apologies but I simply have a problem with that. I understand if you don't want to attempt it but saying is impossible is just unnecessarily discouraging. Thats whats posted in your topic:

For handgunners, when you are in the EDB you can find what all handgunner entries look like (or the one with several faction names, i dont go in there often) and just use find to find an entry, and replace to add in the gunpowder requirement

The solution is the change the condition for them from plate_armor to gun_powder.
Thats notepad 1) open export_descr_building.txt 2) find "handgunner" 3) look a line beneath, replace eventname with gunpowder 4) repeat.

Oh. Forgot about step 0): Make a backup of the file(s) before you accidently screw something up.

Thats not really what he requested. He doesn't want to have gunners at all. And I'd imagine the game would crash if you set the unit number to 2010.

[Alpha Zeke]

Because. More swords = better

...but you can't make them use the search function.

Really, typing's hard enough for them, what with the hooves and everything. You should be happy that they can even use computers.
