Possible bug report: With some Spoilers

josh_f · #1 October 31st, 2003, 02:39 AM

I was playing around with the map files-- adding units not normally available in the demo. For some reason the ice devil Nycator did not have the fire susceptibility trait. I do hope that this is not by design. Even without hands Nycator is going to be a mean super combatent.

One more suggestion,

it would be nice to have a method of adding specific devils/demon lord/elemental kings to maps. As it is now I can only add the same king/devil over and over again.

Have you tried adding by number? It might take a long time to find the right one, but unit number is an unambiguous way of specifying the exact unit. At least in Dom I it was.

(How long will it take for someone to make an allunits.map for Dom II?)

5 mn I think, but it would spoil the fun of discovery for me, so I wont do that.

I just added a Fire Snake once, to check their stats. Cool being for a 2.25 fire gem cost (compared to 6 gems for a summer lion).

if somebody want such a .map file, ask here though.

He doesn�t have fire susceptibility but he does have icicle fists instead of arms. So he is missing 2 hand slots.

OK, I'm asking. Maybe that will let me guess how to tweak maps a bit...

ok, go to this directory

http://phmalacher.free.fr/Dominions/

you will find some files for dominions, one is named aranallunits.zip

feel free to take the others, one is named articlesdominion.zip, it can be of some use.

now, on with an interface question : how do we browse the leaders in a province (except by F1), where there is more than 25? I have not found the key.

Sure, but I don't think it'll be very useful for mercs unless you want some serious mouse finger exercise.

There is also the tax window which could benefit from the mouse wheel.

perhaps with a 5 or 10 increment for the merc window?
