Hi everyone,

I created a new add-on based on Ravana's XP Modification ( It provides a right-click menu that allows you to spend unit experience for upgrades. The costs in XP can be changed during game creation.

It also adds a Noob upgrade option that provides 100 hitpoints, 10 movement and 2 strikes for a...

Since and can be mentioned on the _main.cfg, why not letting them accessible on the server and so we can see them before downloading an add-on?
