Modding question: heroes?

[SalsaDoom]

Hello all... I've been playing with the modding bits. Nothing spectacular, but I was wondering how you mod heroes in?

I didn't see anything in the manual about it, or anywhere else... theoretically, you'd just throw in a tag like #hero or something and it would be added into the list of possible heros right?

I didn't see that either. I assume/hope it will be added in a later patch.

Meanwhile, you can replace (i.e., change) the existing heroes by finding out their number, and then modding them, but this is somewhat limited, also since #clear doesn't work yet. Rather like the dilemma with modding pretenders, with the added snag that you need a game where the heroes are visible to see what their unit number is, unless there is a file someone has already made with this info for all of the heroes.

Not a hero file specifically that I know of. But the AllView game does show them. It doesnt say which ones are heroes and to whom but if you have an idea who they are then you can scroll thru the units list to find them.
