Please help me make "Turns till next avaliable company" to 1?

[Shuazoid]

With regards to : export_descr_buildings.txt

There are many lines with "recruit_pool" for many units with 4 numbers.

The second number is usually the one which is the waiting time for next avaliable company to be recruited.

Can someone help me make all the waiting times to 1?

I cant find an easy way to do it and using Excel bugs it such that it wont start.

Help me out and thanks!

The second number is how much it refills per turn.
Make it 1, and the pool will refill 1 unit per turn.

I know that, I was asking for either someone to do it for me
OR a already modded file
OR a much easier method to do it.

I use Notepad++
Using Excel is faster but doesnt work... sad.

Few would be willing to do something so extensive for a single person.

Why dont you just use 'control + h'.
recruit_pool "Unit" 0 0.05 9 0 requires factions { egypt, }
Just copy the Blue into the Find section and change the number before the decimal to 1.

rep for anyone willing dto do this and change recruitment numbers to 0

I use a short Python script to change recruit times. Here it is:

import re
from decimal import *

regex = re.compile('\.[0-9]{1,6}')
the_index = 0

getcontext().prec=10

new_edb = open("export_descr_buildings2.txt", 'w')

for line in open("export_descr_buildings.txt"):
    m = regex.search( line )
    if m is not None:
        match = m.group(0)
        new_replacement_rate = str(float(match)*1.5)
        new_replacement_rate = "{0}".format(Decimal(new_replacement_rate))
        new_line = line.replace(match, new_replacement_rate[1:])
        new_edb.write( new_line )
    else:
        new_edb.write(line)

It essentially replaces the current replacement rate with one that is 1.5 times faster. E.g., .025 becomes .05. To make it 1 for everyone, change new_replacement_rate to 1.0 in the format function call.

DISCLAIMER: I do not regularly use Windows, so I'm unsure about running Python programs on Windows machines. If you're unable I could run your file. It wouldn't take but a few milliseconds to run ;-)

Hm. I was sure the NoWaiting Mod already had a version that had "1 turn units"
