Cataph’s – UI: Ammunition shown for melee/spear infantry AND melee cavalry
Title says it all, pretty much. Same thing as the original version, but this one also shows the melee cavalry ammunition line.
Which should be almost always 0 or 2, with 40m precursor javelins.
Quoting from the previous version (spear and sword infantry only, which you can find HERE):
I thought this would come handy to instantly recognize which ones of the melee or spear guys we are about to face are going to shower us with javelins, like Iberians and Thureos Spears, which ones are sneaky guys that are neglecting to tell us how dangerous they are, like Royal Peltasts, or which ones are going to be the usual infantry with two precursor javelins.
I have also reduced the scale to 40 (down from 80) to make the green bar more noticeable. Slingers in particular can now really brag about their immense ammo reserves.
I was actually considering to swap the bonus versus X for this stat but I guess one more line in the stat panel is not that harmful.
Also, I didn’t put in a Range statline as well because all units with precursors only have 2 and we know they shoot at 40m, and those with more than two are either pesky iberians or light javelins carriers, either case they shoot at 80m.
Finally, a missile damage factor is even more negligible since they are all pretty similar in damage.
Compatible with everything that is not a stat panel overhaul I suppose, and maybe not with DEI but you may try, it shouldn’t loop but just make your tooltip even bigger.
