    Icon5 New Tutorial for adding units to the game?

    As the Title says, do we think a new tutorial is needed for adding/porting units to the game? I've spent most of the morning learning the battle_models file from various sources on here an other websites. I have successfully added 6 units to my barebones folder. It would be nice to have a one stop tutorial for this stuff.

    Thoughts please.

    If my notes and technique are needed, I'll bang a Tutorial out in the following week.

    there's pretty much at least 1 tutorial for all the major and specific/tricky stuff about modding, just search the tutorial & guide sections

    To me, a lot of those guides are super unclear as to where files go, how the actual modeldb is edited, and how to connect the export_desc_unit.txt and modeldb correctly so it finds the entries. I have tried and failed in most cases and its damned annoying.

    We all learned from them. A single read is more than enough if having doubts then ask them in those threads.

    I'll do it anyhow, if you read it and learn something all the better.
