Squirrel5555 task3: making a brand new unit

Post by Stratego (dev) »

The next one is making a brand new unit

steps:

make a new AOD ship unit, select the next ship from AOD design posts.

1. search a unit that is fairly close to your needs (this case from AOG assets), this case look for a "ship" from AOG and use that.
2. copy that file and with/in that file
- rename the file to the name fits the AOD unit names you decided (eg. similar than tas2 name)
- rename the unitTypeNAme to the new one (as in task2
- open id/units_id_list.txt
- make a new "section at the end of the file, lets call it "AOD units"
- start your first id from 40100 this will be id of you new unit.
- set the allocated unit id in the json.
- now modify any properties so your ship will fit the ship design (as in task2)
- set the image too (as in task2)
2. open the buildlist.json and place your new unit into the buildables list (eg. beside the unit in task2)


i think you have your first new unit
(it is easier than task 2 i think :))

Thanks :D

Can you give me a couple units I can try making jsons for, so that we don't end up making the same one twice? Also for now would you like the technology to be set to false since we don't have them planned out yet.

And which line is used to give the unit accuracy?
