	Errors in upgrading 'Units': Civ3X.bix (Editor) Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

I discovered in the Civ3X.bix (PtW, default gamescenario) the following errors in upgrading, please comment on this, especially when I'm talking nonsens here, and when it does'nt affect the game! (I'm not an editor-expert!):

Unit: Editor says: Should be:

Scout Conquistador Explorer
Archer Berserk Longbowman
Spearman Numidian Merc. Pikeman
Swordsman Gallic Swordsman Medieval Infantry
Horseman Mounted Warrior Knight
Musketman Musketeer Rifleman
Knight Keshik Cavalry
Cavalry Sipahi None (& Uncheck the box Upgrade Unit)
Catapult Hwach'a Cannon
Jet Fighter F-15 None (& Uncheck the box Upgrade Unit)
Legionary Immortals Medieval Infantry
Immortals Medieval Infantry Guerilla
Rider Samurai Cavalry
Samurai War Elephant Cavalry
Keshik Ansar Warrior Cavalry
Conquistador Explorer None (& Uncheck the box Upgrade Unit)
Berserk Longbowman Guerilla
Sipahi Cavalry None (& Uncheck the box Upgrade Unit)
Gallic Swordsman Legionary Medieval Infantry
Ansar Warrior Rider Cavalry
Numidian Merc. Pikeman Musketman
Hwach'a Cannon Artillery

In the 'civ3mod.bic' there were some errors to in the Editor/Units, I changed them, before I could check if it was necessary.

I did throw the patch (1.14) over PtW, so I cannot check if this is a patch-error, or it did exist already.

	Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

These are no errors, but the trick that makes upgrades work for upgrading to civ specific units.

When a unit in the chain is unavailable to the civ upgrading it will just skip it and move on to the next unit in the list for upgrades, so the chain
Scout-Conquistador-Explorer
Will allow Spain to upgrade Scouts to Conquistadors, but won't stop any other civs from upgrading them to Explorers.
Warrior-Swardsman-Gallic Swordsman-Legionary-Immortals-Medieval Infantry-Guerilla
Will allow upgrades from Warrior to Immortals for the Persions, to Legionary for the Romans and so on.

	Full PM-box? Change here!

Ah! So I should restore Default settings then! (I guess....)

What you explained is also very logical, because the Editor handles the parameters not just per Civ, but overall.

It just is not logical when you see this in the editor appearing, I was making an upgrade to my schedule for 'Upgrading Units' and that's why I was troubled in my own expactations how it should be.

(I don't know if this is correct English, ...hope you'll understand...)
