I've been trying to make a new(?) kind of map for a while now. Peasants are the main kind of unit, and are trained into soldiers at different buildings. They still have the Call to Arms skill, and have a custom skill based on it which transforms them into archers. When I use either skill in map testing, both ability cards show as used and the peasant becomes an archer. All I did was make a custom Call to Arms, a custom archer unit, set the new skill to turn the peasant into the new unit, and apply the skill to the peasant unit. What am I doing wrong, and how can I fix it?
Also, the map doesn't have buildings always be on set teams. I want to make it so all units can garrison all types of buildings, fire out of the buildings if equipped with a ranged weapon, and storm enemy buildings to take them over. I tried applying custom Orc Burrow abilities to each unit, but it's.. not working very well. The most salient problem is that only one unit type can be in a building at once. I can't have a conscripted archer, an axeman, and a crossbow bandit taking cover in the Town Hall at once. How can I get around that? I'd really like to do it in a way that still allows enemy swordsmen to storm the barracks and kill the defending archers, but I'd be more than pleased if I could just fit both the archer and the crossbowman in the Town Hall and have them both use their own attack.
Thanks for reading, and I'd greatly appreciate any advice.
