Overview
Creating New Custom Battle Positions
The battle positions are pre-set according to the locations listed in custom_locations.txt. The co-ordinates relate to the map referenced from the main or imperial campaign folder - if map files are not included in those folders the map files in the base folder are used.
Advanced Condition Selections
The available options in the advanced conditions menu selection in BI are:
Season:
- Summer
- winter
Weather:
- Random
- Calm
- Hazy
- Heavy Rain
- Light Rain
- Light Fog
- Dense Fog
Time of Day:
- Sunrise
- Morning
- Midday
- Evening
- Sunset
- Night
Some of the above appear to tie up with weather conditions / timings mentioned in descr_daytypes.txt but others do not or are missing. For example Light Rain does not exist as a named weather condition in daytypes. Spring and Autumn settings which are in daytypes are not given as an option in custom battle selection. It might be that they are used randomly when selecting 'Summer' mode - NB. needs confirmation.
The 'Random' weather selection will use the conditions applied to that season and climate type in descr_daytypes.txt according to their probability values. Specifically selecting 'Calm' for instance will mean that weather type is used even if it is not listed for the relevant climate in daytypes.
