Veteran Level during combat - default rule set

[Moke]

Hi,

I notice with the versions 3.X military units don't achieve any promotion of their status to veteran, hardened or elite anymore. This is
even more frustrating, since the AI players military units don't have this restriction. Can someone please shed some light on this? I like
to play on 'cheating' difficulty level and get often, also for this reason, beaten by the AI.

There are new ruleset settings in 3.1 that might affect you:

Code: Select all

; With some rules it`s possible that neither side of a combat dies.
; Set this to TRUE if unit should never gain veterancy from such a combat.
only_killing_makes_veteran = FALSE

; If either side of the fight is completely powerless, i.e., has
; zero attack/defense power after modifiers, fight is not considered
; a real fight. If this setting is enabled, nobody gets made veteran after
; such a fight.
only_real_fight_makes_veteran = TRUE

; When this setting is enabled, chance of getting veterancy from a combat
; gets modified by the strength of the opponent relative to the strength
; of unit that might gain the veterancy.
; When this setting is disabled, the modifier is always simply considered
; to be 100%, i.e, the base veterancy chance from units.ruleset is used as is.
; This affects both regular and diplomat combat.
combat_odds_scaled_veterancy = TRUE

Thanks a lot cazfi, for the quick response. I'll give it a try and report back.
