I'm just trying to mod the game a bit, similar to Panzer Corps. EG: If I wanted to change the War Supplies number what would be the console key to open it up? In Panzer Corps it's just control, alt, shift, c. and then change what you need. Is there anything similar to this to change the game a bit? Mahalo in advance.

the console key is what ever is on your keyboard under the escape key.

It's a bit more involved than that. The way I manipulate money, supplies, more units, is via events.

For example, I save the original Event file 1861 April Campaign. Then I change some data in my modded file to give USA more stuff.

So basically, I am keeping the CMN event, but adding the Actions I want to happen. There are better ways, I am sure.

ORIGINAL FILE, FROM TOP:

SelectFaction = CMN
SelectRegion = $Prince_George_MD

SelectFaction = CMN
SelectRegion = $Prince_George_MD
StartEvent = evt_nam_CMN_InitialDefensesCapitals1861|1|2|evt_txt_CMN_InitialDefensesCapitals1861|Opt-Img_Arsenal6|$Prince_George_MD|109

Conditions
MinDate = 1861/04/01

Actions

EndEvent

MY MODDED TEXT:

SelectFaction = CMN
SelectRegion = $Prince_George_MD

SelectFaction = CMN
SelectRegion = $Prince_George_MD
StartEvent = evt_nam_CMN_InitialDefensesCapitals1861|1|2|evt_txt_CMN_InitialDefensesCapitals1861|Opt-Img_Arsenal6|$Prince_George_MD|109

Conditions
MinDate = 1861/04/01

Actions
SelectFaction = USA
ChangeWSUPool = 550
ChangeConscriptPool = 330
ChangeLoyaltyFac = 15
ChangeFacMorale = 10
ChangeRailPool = 300
ChangeMoneyPool = 575

EndEvent

There has to be a simpler way! I guess we will have to wait until someone gives us a simple command formula?

Or...

And this is just a thought...

You - could - play the game the way it was meant to be played.

Then again it is your dime.
