Hi all,
Its been a while since I updated my scripts, but I had an idea for one a
couple of days ago so I've added it. I've added in a stack_into flag.
Stack_into allows you to use a skill to combine a given number of a
particular type of unit present on the same tile into another unit. This
one is possibly best illustrated by an example skill:
Skill
10
|flags
description Combines 3 conscripts into a conscript squad. Conscripts
must be present on the same tile.
self
friendly_name=Form Army
range=0
key=f
|script_flags
stack_into conscript squad // the name of the new type of unit
stack_number 3 // how many must be present
The intention is to allow you to form armies and such, similar to
Civilization type games pre-Civ 5 for those who have played or heard of
it. This should hopefully mean you can make less moves to take down
bigger enemies using small ones. Its essentially just to save time for
the player, but there's no reason not to give squads bonuses beyond just
3x health and damage.
I've put the scripts in my dropbox: To get the newest ones, you can use
this link: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/5405418/Craig%20Brett.zip
And the documentation is available from here:

Ian, I don't know how you put newer versions of scripts in the
deployment, but if its alright, could you update the version that ships
with the game? Providing no one finds any bad stuff, that is.
I hope you all like!
Craig
