    I just started working on this, I will be multiplying every unit's health by 4 and seeing how it goes when I am done I would love to have some real people test it with me instead of having to play the AI all the time



    FIRST RELEASE:

    okay so you don't really need these files unless you are planning on hosting your own lobby but here they are, in order to add it to enabled mods you have to go to mods.json and add net.corang.AntiPaperUnits to the mount order, in quotes of course, but I will be hosting a lobby for people to join to help test it.

    I'm interested in trying it out! Shoot me the files when you have them!

    I'd tend to think that aircraft probably shouldn't have as much of a health increase as ground units though. Difficult to say without testing it.

    Actually I've already got the unit's health multiplied by three... I hope that's good enough, sending the files to him to mount them to the server.

    I also wouldn't mind helping you test it out, I can right when you get it mounted. Will you still be doing a separate four times health mod or will you leave it at the three times?

    seperate 4 times as I did a poll a while back and that was the most popular, and quick question, did you actually go in and change every individual unit's hp or is there a script of some kind I can use?

    I actually went into each and every .json file and changed the health. I couldn't remember what the most popular was and just guessed it was triple health, I was close.

    I voted for quad health myself, but I don't think that it's worth it to spend the effort getting both triple and quadruple health versions.

    I may have done it incorrectly from what I just read, I assumed I just had to change the unit's .json files, it took quite a while to change them all so I hope it wasn't wasted work... :p

    Do you guys edit all unit files by hand? For this kind of mod writing a program that reads in the json and throws out modified json would be probably best. Sort of like gw cards.
    Then you could make 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x etc health in a few seconds.

    Well I was silly and did it all by "hand", I changed all the unit.json files health values individually, took me quite a while.
