Landwehr and Insurrecto modding question

Mon Jul 14, 2008 9:46 pm

I'd like most Landwehr and Insurecto to refuse or be reluctant (fight very poorly outside home areas) to leave their home areas.
How can I mod this?

Create a new ability that would correspond to their own area (see ability Northerner in BOA for instance)...the unit would move and fight at half strength outside the said home area....areas are listed in the Area.ini file of the game...
Beware of keeping a sound progression of UID values (i.e add them to the bottom of the list) :indien:

I found these area ability listings in the BoA Abilities xls file:


Column B Col C ... Column Y
Name Alias ... Area
$abi_nam_AreaBound1 Canadian ... $Canada
$abi_nam_AreaBound2 Westerner ... $West
$abi_nam_AreaBound3 Southerner ... $Abi_Southerner $abi_nam_AreaBound4 Northerner ... $Abi_Northerner

As I remember some could not leave their area and others could at a penalty. Which is which in column Y?
What is the penalty and how/where is it coded?
I cannot deciper the Param columns.
