Custom plague

How do you make a custom plague attack? I've tried many things but it never works, so how do you do it?

How do you make a custom plague attack? I've tried many things but it never works, so how do you do it?

For example with this:

Code: Select all

{WEAPON_SPECIAL_PLAGUE}
[+plague]
    type=Fire Dragon  # Or whatever type you want to create
[/plague]

While this works, it is unnecessary complicated. There is macro WEAPON_SPECIAL_PLAGUE_TYPE in core which has TYPE parameter.

Can some one show me a unit list that has a unit with the [PLAGUE] (not walking corpse) as their weapon special, also I'm new to code so can someone also explain a bit.

The Sire from the Vampire faction has a Plague attack, but I can't seem to put it on any other unit from another era/add on and change the replacement. It's kind of annoying in a good.

How and where do I place this block

{WEAPON_SPECIAL_PLAGUE}
[+plague]
type=Fire Dragon # Or whatever type you want to create
[/plague]

I'm kind of like, WOW.

put this inside the [specials] tag, which inside the [attack] tag in unit type files
also, you could use this for simplicity:

Code: Select all

{WEAPON_SPECIAL_PLAGUE_TYPE (insert a unit's id here) }
