I was making this mod see, and then I get stuck. Upgrades differ for different units, on attack, you can set the bonus, to see how much +n they get when an Upgrade is researched. So like Dragoons have a bonus of 2 so they get +2 attack when it is researched. And the weapons upgrade applies to all units under it.
Now, where I got stuck was on plasma shields.With the Plasma Shield upgrade, it gives a +1 to all units, but I couldn't find out how to make it +2 to all units, so when plasma shields are upgraded, they give +2 to all instead of +1.
Same thing with armor. How can I change this?
I am using Arsenal III.

He is saying that in order to change the sheild/armor bonus ammounts, you would have to edit the exe
(no current editors can change that in the exe)

Ah, what I feared the most..

Would I also have to modify the .exe in order to change Medic Heal Rate?

That or possibly the iscript, not sure which one controls the cooldown

i thought that cooldown makes a unit attack quicker

Cooldown is the time in between weapon or spell firings. Now I think that you'll be able to shave a little time off the Medic's healing rate by removing waits in the iscript, but keep in mind that it would affect all spells that the Medic casts unless you assign a seperate animation to Heal.

just a question: i thought the .iscript only controls how and when starcraft displays the sprites, not the actual cooldown time and everything. i thought .dat files were for that.

You're right, but if you remove wait commands in the iscript, it will execute faster.

Actually, heal has a seperate animation in Iscrpt.bin.
Anyway, he's right. Waits are very important. In fact, the time of a lot of things are controlled by the waits. Stuff like the time it takes to change from non-siege to siege, and how long a comsat scan is are just the waits.

You can think of it this way: Iscript controls the frequency and time distance between running specific attacks/spells. The cooldown etc, controls how fast will a single such attack/spell perform.
(More or less, that is
)
