Modding

  • Units got postAction callback gets called after an action for this unit has been performed. This allows you to create units which autohide in forest or similar stuff.
  • Units getBonusOffensive callback. Here you can modify the attack boost for a unit based on position or defender etc. Similar to the CO callback.
  • Units getBonusDefensivecallback. Here you can modify the defence boost for a unit based on position or attcker etc. Similar to the CO callback.
  • Units postBattleActions callback. Here you can do unit specific things after a unit attacked or got attacked based on damage or the defender/attacker stats.
  • renames ACTION_REPAR -> ACTION_SUPPORTSINGLE_REPAIR
  • renames ACTION_RATION -> ACTION_SUPPORTALL_RATION
  • AI now uses ACTIONS which start with ACTION_PLACE, ACTION_SUPPORTSINGLE and ACTION_SUPPORTALL for more Information see https://github.com/Robosturm/Commander_Wars/wiki/Modding
  • made menu backgrounds, fonts and music moddable.
  • added script variables to player object
  • added csv support for weapon and movement tables see https://github.com/Robosturm/Commander_Wars/wiki/Modding for details
  • removed tons of string lists from co's and replaced them with generic calls. So new units are easily supported by co's. E.g. giving a buff to air units for Eagle or Waylon
  • added two new unit types Infantry and Hovercraft to the unit types list.
  • added cloaking to units -> similar to hidding a unit with the difference that the unit auto unstealths after the given number of turns. Allows units to hide for a turn etc. Will be used for some special CO-Units in upcoming releases. A unit can be cloaked and hidden stealthed at the same time e.g- submarines etc.
