Bases.inc file...what does it do?

[Herodotus]

The bases.inc file in the various scenarios...what does it do and why is it there in the first place?

I was just modding some naval and air bases for the various countries in the 1936 scenario...
By altering or adding naval and air bases to various country files in the scenario file could this conflict with the bases.inc file?

Here are some air/naval bases.
But some are in the country.inc. I think they add themselves.

File is not used. They probably started by having all bases in one file but somewhere down the line realised it would be easier to have those bases in the Inc files.

Oh well.

Makes sense that the file is not used...

Province 669 Augusta has a size 3 naval base in that file.
But that is a landlocked province, isn't it?

Maybe the file is just prepared for global climate change and rising sea levels :rofl:

Also thanks for the most spedient replies to my question!

...and also province 763 aka Fresno has a size 6 naval base in bases.inc file :rofl:

Once in the AI files i found a garrison priority for...a naval prov.

We use this file in the CORE mod (in our mod-dir install) - and we have actually put all the bases (air & naval) into this one file. It certainly makes the actual Country inc file a lot less crowded, in many ways. Similarly, we have stripped out the other province improvements (AA, Forts & supply pools) into the improvements.inc file. These files aren't used in vanilla, though, AFAIK - but the functionality is certainly there.
