Hi fellow modders and gamers, I have a basic question that I have not been able to find the answer to and would really appreciate assistance please :-)

 

How exactly does a leadership affect troops? Meaning if a leadership is +30% armour, is that calculation additive or multiplicative?

 

E.g. Below is the Lorien warrior armour set. Take the SPECIALIST armour rating of 40%, does that become 70% with the leadership (additive) or does it become 52% (multiplicative). 

 

Armor LorienWarriorArmor

  Armor = DEFAULT          100%   

  Armor = SLASH            100%   

  Armor = PIERCE          100%   

  Armor = SPECIALIST        40%   

  Armor = CRUSH            125%   

  Armor = SIEGE            100%   

  Armor = FLAME            100%   

  Armor = FROST          100%  

  Armor = MAGIC            100%   

  Armor = HERO            200%   

  Armor = HERO_RANGED  200%   

  Armor = CAVALRY   200%  

  Armor = STRUCTURAL      65%

  FlankedPenalty               = 50%      

End

 

I am attempting to create unique leaderships for heroes/units that can stack so wanting to ensure I don't make it too overpowered if they are additive ha. I am only a rooky modder, than only mod for my own personal use. I do apologise if this is an easy question, I just couldn't find an answer.

The ARMOR modifier is additive, but other modifiers, like SPEED, for example, are Multiplicitive. I believe that all of the modifiers are written at the start of attributemodifier.ini

Thank-you very much! I feel silly for not seeing on the attributemodifier.ini ha. I shall have a look there :-)
