Default Re: Dom III sitll gets some parental attention

I would have rather had #homesick and darkness in cave provinces than any of the new commands, but you don't look a gift horse in the mouth. I won't use any of them very often but no way I am going to be disappointed in any new modding capabilities.

I've seen several posts from modders looking for insanity mod commands; the shattered soul command is the closest we've got to that for "minor insanity", since all the basic insanity chassis are 50% or have other potentially undesirable attributes.

Also - it *could* be used by CBM type mods --> Tartarians could have 33% SS vs. current 25%, which would be a different way to tone them down without changing access costing.

Also - re: copystatting - personally, I find that to be a very non-intuitive way to go about things, and it does have a few buggy interactions (e.g. with the leadership commands, IIRC)

In any case, yay more modding commands :-)

#shattersoul and #popkill are both things I would find useful. I had to to quite a workaround to get access to popkill in my very-nearly-released SC mod.

What does #uwdamage do?

Anyway, I strongly approve of anything which brings the range of options available to modders closer to those available to KO.

To clarify, I'm not complaining about the commands we're getting. Anything is great. I'm just not doing cartwheels, as a modder. I can't think of a single unit I've made or am planning to make that I'd use any of these on. I guess maybe if popkill gives you specific values you can enter (same with shattered soul) but I wouldn't assume either of those does.

#uwdamage means the unit takes a percentage of total hit points worth of damage each turn it stays underwater. Presumably it also can't heal underwater.

The #uwdamage may make it easier to get underwater and not harder, as it may allow for more units to travel underwater. Instead of banning them outright from going underwater, it allows new units to go underwater for a limited period of time

But if #uwdamage is only given to units that already can go underwater, then this would hamper underwater expansion.
