A question about roads.....

[Vampire1016]

I wonder if anyone could help me on roads, is it possible to edit/increase the movement speed bonus provided by them? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

That will be via this entry in the EDB:

            capability
            {
                road_level 1
            }

level 0 = regular road
level 1 = paced road
level 3 = highway

It is not known to me if the game engine accepts higher values then this.

level 6 = intercontinental trans rapid?

I'll try, thanks

It doesn't do anything changing it , you could however use the script (forgot where it is) which gives a movement bonus when an explorer guild is present and create a new script from it where the bonus is given when highways for example are present. The problem is that will not apply to leaderless armies.

This movement bonus applies only to named characters via the traits or ancillaries.
The road_level capability will lengthen the distance that can be traveled by characters when they are using a road.

Example trait (MovementPoints, 2 = 10% increase):

Trait Disciplinarian

    NoGoingBackLevel  2 
    AntiTraits BadDisciplinarian
