Making your own movement type

When making your own unit you can choose to use one of the predefined movement types to assing to your unit or make your own.

When choosing a movement type the movement cost is the amount of MP that it will cost your to move to that type of tyle, defence the amount of defence in that tyle, and the resistances are the default resistances it will have.

If what you want is to create your own movement types, it can be done by making a units.cfg file in your add-ons mod folder and adding the path to you _main.cfg file: {~add-ons/ModName/units.cfg}

The units.cfg file formating is like so:

[units] 

   [movetype]
       name=YourMovementType
       [movement_costs]
           shallow_water=3
           ...
       [/movement_costs]

       [defense]
           shallow_water=80
           ...
       [/defense]

       [resistance]
           blade=100
           ...
       [/resistance]
   [/movetype]

[/units] Races can also be declared within the units tag.
