Strange archery

I don't know the precise distance between my units, but visually seemed very close and I was on top of a hill looking down. It would seem there would be some additional advantage for that as well.

Go for changing yourself. They might patch it, but if you prefer a quick fix of it, go for the scripts
I will absolutely do that myself. Thank you very much Goblin Wizard for the scripts!

Goblin Wizard, I was wondering, as you seem to know about scripts and stuff: Do you possibly know how to change camera strafing? You've probably read what I said in other posts, (Camera wont strafe oblique, so it takes way longer time to get where you want, it's ineffective.. and so on), It'd be really grateful.

I've tried to do this but till now no success. If I figure it out I let you know.

I can just open them in notepad. Not sure if that is right or not.

aix files are just common txt files so you can edit them even in notepad. But I suggest "editoraix" from the modding tools (link posted by mitra here). It has syntax highlightening and divides rather long file into subsections. btw "editoraix" is built in editor you've got with the game.

mitra would you be so kind to ask devs about this variable:

[*] = ;var ZoneType                 : Integer = 0; // 34) Тип зоны расположения отряда [0..9]

This is only info I've found. AFAIK it's about terrain type where a unit stands. It has an influence on all ranged units and their targets. I'd like to know which number in 0-9 range represents which terrain?

I have it in russian (google translator after but is not clear what is the better translation of second word), perhaps Sneaksie can give us the better translation

I am staying strong to see if the developers correct, unless somehow this is really historically accurate Let me know how things work out for you.

Does anybody know which tools are needed in order to open the files? (Aix files)
I've no idea, already been looking around but I cant find them
