Hi, there's one thing that's been bothering me for some time. It's those ArmyMemberDefinitions in skirmishaidata.ini, something like this:

 

ArmyMemberDefinition GondorFighterHorde_Member

Unit = GondorFighterHorde ;infantry

PercentageOfArmyPhase1 = 45.0 ;;,;; 40.0

PercentageOfArmyPhase2 = 35.0 ;,; 40.0 ;;,;; 20.0 ;;,;; 40.0

PercentageOfArmyPhase3 = 20.0 ;;,;; 30.0

End

 

 

You see, there are those percentages of units in army in certain phases of the game. But when I summed it up with other Men unit percentages of phase 1, I got 187, not 100. It's similar with other factions and other phases. So, can someone explain it to me? I thought percentages work in different way.

 

And, most importantly, if I wanted to add a new unit, say RohanFighterHorde (just an example) to Men SkirmishAi, do I have to subtract some percentages from other hordes in order to keep this 187? Or can I just add some numbers without modifying the other units' parameters and It'll work just as well?

 

Thanks in advance for some explanation here, I wish you all good day

This is more like a priority to build each units than a real limit in their army,
their only limit are the CP, adding a new unit won't cause problems

So it's more like the higher number the unit has, the more likely the AI will produce it, rather than those numbers being real percentages of an army?

Yes

 

Thank you, this explained a lot to me.
