Default Re: Settings.txt Group Amounts

These are IIRC the default values when in combat for those Groups.

i.e. when launched in combat fighters will default to stacks of twenty, sats will do the same, as will mines.

The thing is I don't think any of them except -maybe- the fighter one work.

Default Re: Settings.txt Group Amounts

If you launch the units in combat and not on the strategic map, it should be the default amount. Of course, all AIs have settings in their files that override this.

What? Gasp!!!! You mean the AI's may actually cheat?

So, let's see if I got this straight...

1) These values are only used in combat.
2) Only the fighter group amount works. Y/N?
