Default Informationtext
Enable AI Debugging Window
(possible cheating)
Description
If you enable this addon, you can debug some AI functions, like current jobs the AI creates. This also allows you to check mountain resources.
Options
- Maximum strength
- Medium strength(default)(s2-like)
- Minimum strength
Default Informationtext
Allows you to modify the strength increase of military ranks.
Description
Maximum strength: One General kills ca. eleven Privates (11.5).
Medium strength: One General kills ca. six Privates (6.25).
Minimum strenth: Each soldier gets one Hit Points for a rank up. Privates have three Hit Points so a Private First Class has four Hit Points. All other settings also increase hit chances for higher ranks, resulting in more hits for a higher rank fighting a lower rank, when set to Minimum strenght each soldier rank has the same chance for hitting.
Options
- No Change(default)(s2)
- Disallow change
- Reduce reoccupying troops accordingly
Default Informationtext
Allows to change the military setting 'defender'. You can choose to disallow any changes to that setting or you can limit the amount of reoccupying troops (during an attack) according to the defender setting.
Description
If you disallow change, then ingame the bar is invisible and stays at the Settlers II default (60%). If you set this addon to 'Reduce reoccupying troops accordingly', you get as much reoccupying troops as you set defenders. Means if you set to 100% you get infinite soldier support, if you set it to 0% you get 0 soldiers as support during an attack.

- No Change(default)(s2)
- Remove gold completely
- Convert to iron ore
- Convert to coal
- Convert to granite
Default Informationtext
You can remove gold resources completely or convert them into iron ore, coal or granite.
You'll probably want to convert gold to iron ore, as this (on most maps) allows you to utilize the additional coal not needed for minting anymore.

##Sea attack settings Options
- enemy harbors don't block
- enemy harbors block (default)
- no sea attacks (s2)
Default Informationtext
Set restriction level for sea attacks
Description
In Return to the Roots the seafaring differs from the original. Harbor spots are considered in military settings and affect building flags.
If "enemy harbors don't block" is enabled, you can attack any enemy military building close to harbor spot. If "enemy harbors block", you have to first destroy the enemy harbor building, then you can attack any building clos to that harbor spot. Setting "no sea attacks" will prohibig any attack by ship. To attack an enemy building or harbor, you have to spot it first, either by lookouttower or with an exploration expedition. If you did so, just click on the enemy's military building, select the anchor tab and attack it like you would normally do.
