Title: multi resource supply crawlers
Post by: fuze2100 on January 21, 2017, 07:34:33 pm

i just started a new game, and found out after i could make supply crawlers that this one lets me use all resources on a square.
all my other games do not do that and even a new one i started after doesn't do that.

any idea what made the crawler use all resources and how i can have it happen again?

Apparently you are using Yitzi's Patch 3.5c?

There are editable settings in your alphax.txt, including some for allowing exactly what you described.
Take a careful look down through alphax.txt for these two lines (or search (Ctrl+F) for "convoy"):

Disable, ; Technology to convoy all three resources
Disable, ; Technology to convoy all three resources outside of base radius

If you are able to collect all three resources, there will be a technology code instead of "Disable".

i downloaded the patch a couple month ago or one. tell you the truth, I'm not sure if I got it running, I installed it like it was suppose to. but if I did why do some games not allow the crawling of all resources but a few do? what did I do wrong or not do?
