Hello there. I was wondering if you can help me out. How do you
create or edit definition files?!?

Thanks for your time

You can edit them simply using Notepad, or another text editor. To create
them, we recommend that you take another definition file as a starting
point (for example, the tutorial game system definition file) and base
yours off that.

The ABCreator tutorial has some short instructions for how to review the
contents of a definition file.

Uh... ok, that's really weird. I'm not sure why that's happening... is
there anything strange in the datadef file that would prevent more than one
of a single item being taken? Anyone else have any ideas?

Subject: Runtime modifying of Composition Groups...

Hi, i'm making some datafile for Warhammer 40K Codex Chaos and i found
some problems...




1) How can i change only 1 composition group leaving the others
intact?


Ex. For Iron Warriors, I want an option to give me +1 Heavy support,
-2 Fast attack, leaving other composition groups as they are.




2) It is possible to iclude some sort of condition?


Ex. As above, I want +1 H.S., -2 F.A. but only if there are at least 2
F.A.




I need this also for Word Bearers, where i have to put 3 options


- Swap 1 Elite for Troop


- Swap 1 Fast Attack for Troop


- Swap 1 Heavy Support for Troop




So I need some sort of script that let me change these without
modifying the others comp. groups.




Any ideas? even other solutions for these are welcome...


Thanks
