Default Is it possible to alter garrisoned units' stats?

Like, give them more range, damage, rate of fire, etc.

Also is it possible for room-clearing units (flashbangs, flame, toxin) to only clear one or two units at a time, or damage garrisoned units?

For instance, I want to make all units have a certain percentage of killing or injuring a garrisoned soldier, and make sniper units have a greater chance than others of killing garrisoned soldiers.

As of right now I have a pretty cool WWII mod on the drawing board, and if it gets totally completed I think the gameplay would be even better than that of Blitzkrieg II. I'm just trying to learn the limits and commands of the INI files before I begin some real work (I've been changing the stats of units in the Generals INI files to test out my realism ideas, and it is a bit more fun IMO, but they are just minor changes... no extra units or anything like that as of this moment).

Thanks for your help!

Check gamedata.ini for the stats bonuses. I'm not too sure about the garrison damage though.

Not a hint of arrogance do I see.

That's not arrogance, that's just a healthy dose of optimism.

Or setting high limits :P

And altough there have been discussions in the Blitz2 team to make it moddable, I doubt it will happen soon =\

What would others think of it anyways?

It's an opinion, but as it's the creator's own, it has no value.

Making Blitz II moddable sounds like a bad idea. Isn't it better to actually play with people than to play alone but with machine guns/Super Pershing/M1 Abrams? It's not as if the amount of online-playing people is enormous...

The garrison-clearing properties of a weapon are defined in its projectile's entry in \Object\WeaponObjects.ini. You can also use the KILL_GARRISONED damage type to make a garrison-clearing weapon with no projectile.

General garrison bonuses are controled in GameData.ini. I have no idea if you can tweak a weapon specifically with the WeaponBonus flag, so that might be worth experimenting.

As far as I know, there is no way to damage garrisoned units short of killing them or attaching a probability modifier to a garrison-clearing weapon or projectile.

If anybody wants, I can send them the technology table and manual for my game so they can see what I'll be implementing... Just say the word, I'll be happy to.

isnt there already something similar to this? I mean when you do a ranger chinook combat drop, the first ranger dont completely clear the building, and I have seen a toxin tractor shoot a garisoned building and not fully clear it for a shot or two.
