New entry for "missile_weapons_to_projectiles_tables"

[Jaxal]

Hello

I want to add a new projectile for the rome_bow so that when i change the range, it does not affect any other faction.

Is it simply a matter of copying pasting the row and then changing the projectile type? from arrow_normal to arrow_normal2 for example?

Yes, making a new projectile is just that simple. However, to get the unit to use it, you'll also need a new missile weapon to assign to the unit you want to use the altered projectile (assuming you want to limit it to just 1 unit)

Good idea. so:

[1] in the "missile_weapons_table" i simply copy paste the "rome_bow" row and edit the name to "rome_bow2".

[2] then go to the "missile_weapons_to_projectiles_tables" table and copy paste the "arrow_normal" and rename it to "arrow_normal2".

[3] then go to "land_unit_table" and change the main_missile_weapon to "rome_bow2" for the particular archer unit.

Am i missing anything? or will that do the trick?

You probably don't need step 2, the default projectile (always selected upon entering a battle) is assigned in step 1.

Thank you bro for your help. i had to add the new projectile in the "projectile table" first.

Next, i will try to modify the archers to shoot the "exploding pot" lool lets see how that goes.
