Default Re: Modding tips and tricks

That said, if you want to farsummon say 20 of 'Infantry A' with a leader of 'Commander C' and that's /all/ you want, there is a relatively easy workaround (In fact there's a workaround for almost any modding problem in dom3, it's just they aren't all particularly clean).

You make a monster for infantry A and give it shapechange to monster for commander B (commander C clone). Then you give commander B the #firstshape command pointing to commander C - at the end of any given turn Commander B will turn into C. Of course you make sure commander C doesn't have any command to turn him into either commander B or infantry A. So after summoning you can turn the commanderised infantry A into commander B, then wait a turn for him to turn into C and lose that whole 'shapechanging into the infantry guy' thing.

Messy but it works.
