OK, I know what they do. I know how to use them. I just keep hitting the unit limits when adding two entire races to them. Is there some way I can increase the number of units that can fit into the Choose Vehicle box so they don't get cut off half-way down? I intend to get units from all four-and-a-half races into Deathmatch and Strategy as soon as possible.
Sounds like a 1.3 problem.
How many units can the lists have before they are cut off?
All version of bz2 has a limit of 32 vehicles. The impression I got was increasing this limit would be too difficult to change.
Oh dear. Going to have to cut out some of the units then, which is a shame. I'll have a look and see what's removable.
Or have various possible lists.
Archetypes perhaps and the DLL knows what race to start the user with via a civar/csvar?
So I pick scout archetype and set my starting race (if the span is set to random race) to the one I want. This requires some major overhaul of DLL code though.
I am waiting for BZRap to come out so I can optimize the hell of of it in this way, add a few more races, and put that out :-P (I plan to get a lot of races via DLL trickery)
