Mod Description

Made to work for both WW1 & WW2 alt history, these panzer walkers are designed to work along side standard wheeled and tracked vehicles, not replace them. A walker vehicle can be more or less capable then a tracked vehicle depending on battlefield conditions / the terrain. For example it has increased survivability in minefields and under artillery fire, and are better suited for combat in urban, mountain, & shallow water environments like rivers and beaches compared to their tracked counterparts. However it is only capable of much slower speeds, provides less cover for infantry, less capable of laying ambushes, and have higher ground pressure making them less suited for combat in swamps, snow, and deserts . Though they carry a greater amount of firepower, they are still just as easy to destroy as a standard panzer 4 so are still able to be destroyed by interwar & WW1 cannons.
NOTE: The "driver" of the pazner 4 has control of the fixed hull mounted cannon & its vision slit can be used for aiming it.

How To Modify

All scripts (codes) to make them work can be found in the objects or units init box. Also, all units & objects called upon by the scripts have a name. If you wish to change somethings name you must make sure you also change the name in any script that uses it. If you wish to make a minor change like replacing one unit or object for another, all you need to do is copy & paste the scripts and name from the object you with to replace into the object your replacing it with. The same goes for major changes that could possibly replace every object. If you want to make multiple of the same type of walker, you will also need to change the names of any object with a name and any name in its scripts relating to it.

Known Bugs & Issues

– I cant seem to change the textures of the ADSD so the walker has purple legs
– the vehical will come apart if rotated in the editor
– Added actions to get into the driver, hull gunner, turret gunner, & commander spots from the ground, however was not able to add actions for the machine gunner & loader spots so players will have to do some shuffling around once inside
