Need - Supply Wagon - Courier Command

Post by Davinci »

I don't think that this is possible as of now, but how much trouble would it be to add in a supply wagon - courier command?

Basically - the ability the move the supply wagons by courier .

Thanks,

No, that's the problem.
I can make this march and I will make Georgia howl.

Ok - probably not possible then.

Using the csv's could you give supply attributes to a unit? An officer?

Yes, they are in the game, but they do not show up in the Send Courier Menu screen, which is where it would have to be.

Basically, they now move with the divisional commander, but this doesn't work if the player decides to detach several brigades, and would like the ability to send a supply wagon with those brigades.

So, back to the original question, would this create a problem adding this command into the game?

Thanks,

Well I can certainly put it on the to-do list - however it is a big list and growing daily :)

Norb makes all final coding decisions though.

As a temporary workaround, using the csv's could you give supply attributes to a different unit, one that is in the OOB, make it a pseudo supply-wagon, then change that units skin back to the wagon sprite?

Yes, add it to the list, it would be a nice little feature to have, but it’s not a game-breaker, so I won’t complain about it if it’s not added!

Thanks, for the input into this!
