This is a completely optional feature allowing to assign any unit up to two
attachments. All attachments settings are defined by .CFG files
(see ConfigFiles for details
on how to configure)
Attachment cost can be optionally include in ArmyCost, by defining the proper Var en .CFG file
Each attachments implies a fixed hard-code behaviour ruled by two customizable
parameters, one of them being a penalty . When parameter is a number it is customizable. Second parameter is always a
number so designer can set as zero to disable any penalty. Negative numbers are converted, so no parameter can be reversed from bonus to penalty or reverse.
Cost of parameters is made by a fixed number plus a percentage of the unit cost
receiving the attachment.
There are the hard-coded behaviors of attachments:
Attachment | Bonus | Default Penalty |
Recon |
Increase Spot according first param |
Reduce Movement according second param |
Air Defense |
Increase AA/AD according first param |
Reduce Inititiative according second param |
