<![CDATA[Need help for a trigger, even possible?]]>I have 2 units:

  1. War chariot (isLandTransport, canScramble)
  2. Elite unit as charioteer (isLandTransportable)

Together they get stronger (supportAttachment)

Now i want to give the Elite charioteer unit canScramble ability but only if a war chariot is in the same territory.

Is there a chance to work somehow?

I think i have to explain to myself that the charioteer is just too much additional weight to be able to scramble together with the chariot then. Because the chariot unit is not empty to begin with. lol

I think i can live with that. Sounds reasonable. Dont you think?

The problem is that i have also horsemen/cavalry units which i also want to be able to scramble by themselves.

Thank you both. I think i just would have to get rid of isAirBase from the charioteer then. Because i have always set isAirBase to all scramble units. Even in a WW2 scenario i set all air units as isAirBase themselves intentionally, to have much more air battles in general.

Edit: The problem is that i have also horsemen units that also can scramble because of their own isAirBase setting which i cannot disable if i dont want to lose them as scramble units.

So to conclude i only can have all horse type units be able to scramble except the charioteer on foot unit then.

In other words, either all horse type units can scramble by themselves except the charioteer
or only the chariots and the charioteer are able to scramble.

I hope i dont miss any point here?

If I'm reading correctly, a unit with 'canScramble' can only scramble from a unit that is 'isAirBase'.

So the war chariot would be 'isAirBase' to allow elite charioteer to scramble.

Cheers...

Air battles (airAttack, airDefense, canAirBattle) (isAir NOT needed !)

Scramble (canScramble, maxScrambleDistance, isAirBase (isAir NOT needed !)

Eventually you want to read my post about isAir and scramble mechanics.

My first thought is that only air units can scramble and isLandTransport won't work with isAir units.

But yea not much help here as Idk
