ship tech tree modding

[Green_Ink]

hello. I've seen the submarines DD and very excited if i can modding the tech tree with this conditions!

"if i have more than 2 ships model in same research year (by modding and add one) so i can mod different spec. for each ship"

Probably

I'm sure we'll be able to add as many models and years as we like to the tech tree. Hopefully we'll be able to use things like models and variants to mix it up a bit. (so have things like cruiser and supply submarines (and even mine-laying subs, if we can get minefields to work in a mod) as sub-models of submarines, which then have a number of attributes that can be improved through experience.

As I did in Hoi3, you can mod a lot. The biggest problem after all is the AI. If you don't have the values and triggers to really seperate the use of this new ships, then unfortunately it doesn't make sense to include them.

F.e. I modded all smaller classes below DD's in, even MTB's (motor torpedo boats).
But...the AI never used them proberly, because it can't understand the task of them. AI started to mix MTB or corvettes with carriers or battleships....a.s.o.

Maybe this all can somehow be implemented in the lua's, but this is my weakest skill. Can't do this poperly. I just can tell the AI that they're in and that it should produce......nothing more

After all, I hope the new AI is way more modderfriendly, so that you can easily teach the AI the different purpose of all these additional ship classes. Same for new airplane types.

We know that the interface has a scroll bar (i.e. for the National Focus trees) so I suppose you could add as many models/years as you like, so long as you add artwork for them.

If it's in the LUAs, we'll get there . I'm kind of looking forward to the challenge.
