Re: Editor
We will enable the editor fairly soon, but we want to make sure that we can get feedback on the game itself, as we know a lot of people will jump right in to the modding

Yes, it could be "irresistible"....
Re: Editor
Thanks for the Editor, i have a question about it:
using the "randon enemies plugin" i set 3 AI groups at 100/200/200 points... however when i start the scenario the AI did not purchase any units; there must something i did wrong using this plugin.
Anyone have some clues on this feature?
Thank you

Re: Editor
The random enemies plugin works by using the points set in the plugin to purchase units from the denoted teams randomly. So if you set up AI team 3 with 10 units you probably want to set the plugin with enough money to purchase say 5 or 6 on average - then each time the mission starts it will set up team 3 with units that cost no more than the value in the plugin.
So you need to both set a value in the plugin, and also allocate the AI units to appropriate teams.

Re: Editor
I believe you also need to set the units to chose from as unfixed using the F key.
Re: Editor
indeed, i tried and it works. In the editor i have to choose fixed units and unfix them with F key ... when i start the scenario i can choose from units selected and unfixed, thanks.AndrewGardner wrote:I believe you also need to set the units to chose from as unfixed using the F key.

I was comparing the editor last night with the BA editor. Wow you guys have really automated or simplified a lot. Reinforcements, On-map text, auto-edging, drag and drop roads and rivers. It looks really nice.

BA2 editor rocks!
A very small issue: I can't make a screenshot with F2 key when the UI of reinforcements is open.

I use the "Print Screen" key.

I think the best way to describe our operations to date is that they have violated every recognized principle of war.

Re: Editor
The advantage of the F2 key is that it automatically saves the screenshot into a file.

Re: Editor
The copy/paste tool is very great but :
- the hills aren't copied.
- the VPs defined by the plugin aren't copied also.
And can we have a 'cut' function in addition of copy/paste? Or an eraser to allow to erase a large zone (ideally by marking corner like copy/paste feature)?

Re: Editor
If you want to make your own custom versions of existing scenarios the simplest way is to make a copy in your local My Documents/My Games/BA2/CAMPAIGNS folder. Then they will be available to edit.

Re: Editor
If you've modified a scenario then anything could be broken and there isn't really anything we can do about it.
