    Default 2 units same model?

    Is it possible to make 2 units that have the exact same model? If sodo they have to have differnet internal names, or can those be the same.

    -Mod Leader for Shogun 2: Foreign Invasion if you want a mod with alot of units this is for you, not only is there the 40 units CA made theres planned to be atleast 177 NEW units when its done.
    -Modder in the World War I and Shogun II project. The only full scale mod for FOTS and it plays nothing like FOTS. FOTS may have Gatling guns, WW1&S2 has tekidanto samurai, SNLF, MGs, kisho snipers, assault infantry(shotguns) just to name a few.

    Of course this is possible, you only need to have 2 seperate entries in bmmdb and edu for each unit.
    You basically can have as much units using the same moddel until you reach the hardcoded unit limitation.

    Also you can assign each model different skins per faction, so you can have
    500 (models) x 30 (playable factions) = 15.000 different units.

    But the same model will have always the same in-game name.

    tought I never seen a mod with so many, and also lots of models are linked to only 1 faction anyway
