Is it modable ?

**lequintal69** · April 25, 2018, 02:09 PM

Hey, looking forward to playing this mod!

2 questions regarding two features (or lack of) that really suck in attila. Wondering if it was changed in this mod, or if they are even modable

1- the lack of unit description: in attila, the unit's window just shows stats, but no historical description. Is it modable so we can have at least some info on the unit. Its imo even more important knowing that right click in attila still redirect you to an online encyclopedia (this was changed in rome 2 tho), so you really have no way of getting info

2- the campaign army banners, aka the horrible circles thingies. Really ugly if you ask me, and not really convenient to get instant info on the armys total force
Can it be changed to regular banners rome 2 style?

1 - that text was useless in rome 2. Its far more suited to be in the encyclopedia,and not in the stats bar to bloat it.

2 - I think the flags in Attila are far better than those like in Rome 2. They give far more info far more easier to the player to read - both on the battlefield and the campaign

it gave you quick basick info, on the encyclopedia you would have even more. Also you could have a quick description of ennemy units in battle with a single mouseover, which you cant in attila cuz you cant right click ennemy units in battle to have info

Also, is the online attila encyclopedia modded to fit those mod units ? (or is it even modable?)

about flag, well i guess everyone has its opinion

i find them ugly. They just add to the arcady feeling imo

we are internally discussing adding the warhammer unit info script to ours, of course with help and permission from the scripters. At the moment and for initial release we wont have it though

The mod UMC is talking about is this mod DrunkFlamingo and I made. http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...uitment-Events It doesn't work 100% though, and I'm not a scripter so I won't be much help with porting the script bits over.

Oh also, if you hover over a unit's name in the stats tab it shows you that units short description. However there's a limited space in the UI for it.
