You need to edit the export_descr_buildings.txt and either add these units to the Americas, or remove the hidden resource requirements.

it seems simpler to remove the hidden resources requirements how i do that, i really dont understand many of EDB

1- but lets see if i know how to do: ererytime that in this file appears: and hidden_resource europe_m or and hidden_resource baltic and hidden_resource north or and hidden_resource asia

2-the file also says ;This file is generated from a spreadsheet
;Please do not modify by hand
so can i ignore that ?

3-supposing 1 is trut: the mercenary units and elephants, and all the local units i should not remove hidden resources right ? basicly i want to prevent all the units who arent local such elephants in europe, or knights in Africa...

4- in this line:
"French Light Lancers" 1 0.4 2 1 requires factions { all, } and hidden_resource europe and hidden_resource south
in order to make this unit just for france i need to remove all and enter here the factions i want right ?

5- did you used a program to play with the file (EDB) or have you modified 9000 lines by hand ?

6- if 1 is right: to make all unites of france recruitable everywhere i can search in EDU the units who should be just to france and remove hidden resources and make requires factions( france) ???

7- to end with royal and noble recruitment wat can i do ?

1) These are the hidden resources.

2) Yes you can ignore that.

3) That's correct.

4) '"French Light Lancers" 1 0.4 2 1 requires factions { all, } and hidden_resource europe and hidden_resource south' means that this unit can only be recruited in a region with the hidden resources 'europe' and 'south'. Only France has these hidden resources so they can only be recruited in France.

If you change it to '"French Light Lancers" 1 0.4 2 1 requires factions { all, } and hidden_resource europe' then the French Light Lancers will be recruitable in Germany, Italy, Iberia, and France.

If you change it to '"French Light Lancers" 1 0.4 2 1 requires factions { all, } and hidden_resource europe_m' then the French Light Lancers will be recruitable in Germany, Italy, Iberia, France, the UK and Scandinavia.

5) I modified it by hand.

6) That's correct.

7) You'd need to remove all the 'and building_present_min_level city_hall royal_town_hall', 'and building_present_min_level city_hall royal_council_chambers', 'and building_present_min_level city_hall royal_city_hall', and 'and building_present_min_level city_hall royal_mayors_palace' lines from all the unique barracks. Without this line you don't need the Royal buildings to build the unique Barracks.

ok i am almost done with the file
but now when i tested in-game i realised that i need to make arquebusiers,musketeers come earlier how i do that ? in EDB ?

In the EBD you need to remove the 'and event_counter ADV_MATCHLOCK 1' and 'and event_counter MATCHLOCK 1' code. This code tells M2TW that until this event occurs this unit cannot be recruited.
