ships question

**DAVIDE** · April 30, 2007, 11:08 AM

hi all! i ve seen in your mod u can build transport ships etc... Good job!
i wanna ask u if it's possible in txt, to disable the fact u can transport units in all the warships... i mean i wanna try to make transport ships just for human transportation (their attack = 0) and warships who cannot transport units at all! is it possible?

another question: what's the difference between flagship and warship?

No, the only attribute is sea_faring, which I guess controls all transporting. Also, I'm not sure how the AI would handles such a change, you might not see the Ai landing its troops by ships as it would build warships and not transports (transports are pointless from the AIs point of view).

i tried an alternative way 10 mins ago! i have edited the descr_cursor_actions setting the embark army off! in game the units cannot go into the ships but i dunno yet how to give the new information to embark armies just in some kind of ships

A flagship is wherever the admiral is flying his flag.

And a warship is a ship that is built and primarily intended for war.

The flagship is the ship that leads a flotilla/group/navy. The admiral commands from that ship. Usually, the best ship in the fleet is the flagship.

In RTW, the best ship in the fleet is automatically made the flagship.
