Suggestions for modding

Hello, @CA_Duck @CA_TimM

I was wondering about a few things that could be useful for new features and mod debugging

- could the unit limitation property not be included into the land_units datatable in the future? Currently editing a unit disponibily is not compatible with any changes on the other parameters.

- could there be a functon to force army/settlement to be visible in scripts ? The current shortcut is to increase agent view range and to tag regions as revealed, because only removing the shroud doesn't achieve this.

- afaik you can abort a quest with scripts but you can't make it considered completed. Some quests have been broken for quite a long time, I understand it's difficult to foresee all cases, but it's not even possible to mod a solution that would let people "skip" steps that can't be completed.

- having the upkeep penalty value be culture based instead of just present or absent.

- finally victory conditions that could be modified through scripting would be a HUGE feature. It would avoid editing the ubiquitous start position file and allow the creation of dynamic campaigns with variables objectives.

what do you mean about unit liimitation?

Limited slots like in the Tomb King case. A unit must have a property set for this to be effective, but this property is in the same table than most of the other unit parameters . You can't have mod changing anything on the unit and another changing its limitation (to remove or apply it ) separately.

You mean a unit cap? Isn't that in main_table, not land_units?

Ha my bad, maybe, I may have misremembered and I can't check here.
