No seleucid katoikoi phalangites

[Nick was already in use]

So i started my first campaign as the seleucid empire, but i can´t recruit the katoikoi phalangites anywhere (even not in my most developed cities). Is this a bug, or are they only recruitable in some certain areas, that don´t belong to the seleucid starting regions?

They are available in level 3 barracks upwards.

The coding is correct in the EDB file with no rectriction on the AOR.

Take a look in Antioch and Seleucia - you'll see them there.

No, unfortunatly not. Antioch and Seleucia are both huge cities and i just used the process_cq cheat to build everything possbile and take a look, but they are still not in my recruitment-options for both cities.
I can see the katoikoi-units, i start with, but can´t recruit or retrain them...

I just checked a macedon campaign and they aren´t recruitable there too!

Sorry for the double post, but thats intresting. I just changed the "export_descr_buildings.txt in the "play_seleucid"-folder

Under "successor_order5" the entry "recruit "seleucid katakoi phalangites" 0 requires factions { seleucid, }" was missing. I added it and now they are recruitable from the beginning. Is this normal?

Strange!! I loaded up the campaign and there they are.
They should be present in level 3 and 4 barracks but not 5 (sorry I got that bit wrong)....the reason is (I think) that the list of Seleucid units that can be recruited can get too long and start causing CTDs, something DVK was very careful to check out....so by doing that you might end up with some CTDs

Well i made a backup off this file, in case it causes problems, but i don´t know, why they don´t show up from the beginning.

Edit:

I really should have known this. Of course the first upgrades i made to the barracks, and wondered: "What, i can recruit levy phalangites but no katoikoi? This must be an error!" I should have checked the recruitment list from carefully from the beginning
My mistake... i reinstalled the old file and there they are.
Sorry, to waste your time, but thanks for your help
