#(type)res needs to go above 100%
Currently units cannot be given more than 100% resistance. Since there are spells which can lower resistances there is a desire for creating units which start with a resistance over 100%.
Otherwise after a few spells no unit can be completely immune unless it's a commander with extra items.

Re: Mutations!
 

I just had an Air 3 mage cast Living Clouds. Living Clouds is 200 fatigue, 2 gems. The mage in question had 3 Air gems, total. He summoned 4, and only 4, Air Elementals, and because Living Clouds summons 4+ elementals, he would've had 5 if his skill was above 4. He has spellcasting encumberance 3. After casting the spell, he had 200 fatigue and had taken no damage.

If Living Clouds is modded to require Air 3 and take 3 gems (300 fatigue):
the caster can cast the spell with the same three gems; summons only as many elementals as the spell description states (curiously, 3, and description had changed to 3+, to match the #pathlevel 0 3!); and the caster ends up with 200 fatigue.

Further testing:
I changed Master Enslave to Thaumaturgy 0. I created an S9 Wyrm. I sent the Wyrm to fight against the biggest indeps I saw on second turn, after I had gotten enough pearls. I gave him *9* pearls. He cast Master Enslave and won the battle after the enemy routed. He had 200 fatigue after casting the spell, but didn't lose any hp.

This matches what I thought was stated on the forums: that no spell can kill the caster directly through fatigue.

If you copystats a unit that already has the resistances you want you can add those 100% on top of the already existing resistances.

Re: The Modder\'s Wishlist
 

Sorry if this is already in here. Just to get this logged into the wishlist...

increase the arrays so that a mod for slot xx can use unit, site, equipment slots xx times 100. So that a mod using slot 75 would have 7500-7599 available. It doesnt have to be locked down. I mean it doesnt have to force that mod to use only those slots.

But if the arrays would allow it, and we can get people doing it voluntarily, It would help avoid clashes. And it would make later changes easier. We could even create a thrid party program that shifts the entire mod over to a different slot easily.

Re: The Modder\'s Wishlist
 

The nation array itself also needs to be larger, right now there's only room for a dozen custom nations - there are already 14 floating around. I suppose I can segregate mods by era.....

Re: The Modder\'s Wishlist
 

I'd really like the ability to change, make new ones, and increase the number of, bless effects, since this is such a large area of strategy that currently only has 8 defined paths and 16 total effects. For instance, I'd like to be able to create a mod wherein water magic leads to ice weapons and fire magic leads to fire resistance, etc. This would ofcourse go hand-in-hand with being able to mod in more types of magic.

Re: The Modder\'s Wishlist
 

Allow more custom unit graphics.

I've been trying to pool all the custom nations together - and the game won't process more than about 300 (?) custom sprites. At least, that's what I think is going on. looky

Anyway, if we had enough nation #s and sprite slots to field 20 or 30 custom nations, I'd be happy.

Re: The Modder\'s Wishlist
 

I'm with DrPraetorious, 80 nations would be sweet.

Ok, actually I'd like more, like 120-150. But then I'm greedy.

Oh and while I'm being greedy, I'd really like to be able to add ages (for a maximum of 5-7) and rename ages.

Re: The Modder\'s Wishlist
 

There's a quick change to Nation Modding that would be nice. At the moment, when adding heroes to a nation, you're only allowed to specify which monster. You should really be able to give the hero an unchanging name as well, like in the normal nations. One can get around this by creating a new namelist, but that's a pain and you only get so many namelists to customize on your own.

Re: The Modder\'s Wishlist
 

Yes, I'm with you on that one too, Uninspired,

Names have Power.

Mythology is chalk full of the old clause that "a rose by any other name would not smell as sweet"

6,000 slaves, brothers-in-arms to 50,000 dead, strong men who had freed themselves and learned what it was to be proud, become warriors and soldiers in a great army, who terrorized, nearly conquered, the entire World that was Rome willingly died on the cross to the words,

"I, Spartacus!"
