Possibilities of retreating submarines
If submarine would have retreat, the same way as mobile land units, it would give this game more strategic dept.
Attack, dive, attack...
If you don't have subarines for yourself you are doomed.

I would like having something like this in future patches.

But, is it possbile in current editor?



P.S.

OT:
What happens when you give army unload flag. Do you get ability to unload unitas form army?

Am I dumb, or don't see any kind of retreat flag in editor?

I think that would be a great idea, and I am going to try it out for my self and see what happens. I have a gamed saved that I already won were I have all the techs so I could test this out very soon.

No your not dumb, there is no option. That ability is automaticaly included when a land unit has more than 1 movement point. As for unloading units from Armies, you can't, that's been hard coded. I've tried using the unload flag you mention, but it doesn't work.

BTW, I like that Submarine retreat idea, I think it would be very appropriate for that unit.

ARGH!

I HATE HARD CODED THINGS.

Makes me wonder why army unloading is made hard-coded?
To make impossibile to "unbalance game" by some smart MODers, who happen to know how to unload armies?

(I hope not)
