Walking mortars - Figuring out Squads.csv?

[GottaLove88s]

Thanks Enric! I've "borrowed" your squads.csv from City River to add "walking mortars" to the Fast N Sneaky meeting engagement update...

I was wondering, I can see that you've decreased "AP" for US_mortar and german_mortar from 16 to 8, and increased "move cost" from 1 to 2. What else did you change, to switch on walking? Would they still walk if I pushed AP back up to 16 and also increased move cost up to 4?

My suspicion is that might then allow mortars to load into a transport when they're suppressed (which they can't do right now).

They can not load because to load they need 8 MP and when suppressed they have less. Try changing values.

Hi Enric, Solved it. If we assign 16 (the usual base value) into AP for mortars (in squads.csv) and increase the MoveCost to 4 (from 1 by default), then the mortar can "walk" one square per turn, but is still capable of loading into a transport when it is suppressed. Thanks
