Description

  • Now you can add TechnoTypes in the three lists. They will appear at an elite initial level when produced, and cloned infantry will also be affected by this effect.

In rulesmd.ini:

[SOMECOUNTRYIES]        ; Countries
EliteInfantry=          ; List of InfantryTypes
EliteUnits=             ; List of UnitTypes
EliteAircraft=          ; List of AircraftTypes
  • For each TechnoType, you can define SpareCameo to specify the elite‑level icon. When a TechnoType is added to the initial elite list, it will preferentially use the SpareCameo as its icon. Supports SHP/PCX formats.

In artmd.ini:

[SOMETECHNO]        ; TechnoTypes
SpareCameo=         ; filename

The flag name design is somewhat unclear:

  • If not deliberately aligning with vanilla flags, there is no need to set 3 new flags.
  • If designed to align with vanilla flags, it should align with the dual-flag design of Cameo and CameoPCX, and only the PCX version needs to have the file extension filled in.
