Can't figure out how to turn on Paradrop! (SO CLOSE!) Enter the AD-FREE zone

Well I turned on the CRAFT ability and the buttons show up (so does Treadblowing) but I'm supposed to research it in the fort- so I added the tech in the techrules.xml but now theg ame own't load saying # of techs doesn't match NUM_TECHS or something...

Any other modder out there help? Which files controls # of techs... oh why didn't BHG leave paradropping IN!?

Tired of ads?

I turned it on. It's truly taken out of the game, it crashed me everytime I tried it.

treadblowing: a unit that could blow the treads of a tank- killing it.

Treadblowing did nothng that I could tell- but I didn't attack tanks with EVERY UNIT possible...

The paradrop made the button show up and when I clicked it the cursor turned into a little parachute and the text below the age said: SELECT A SPOT TO PARAROP TO, but it crashed as as soon as I selcted a location. Maybe there's still some hope.

Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

i think i recall there were some talk of paratroopers in the game, but they took it out for some reason. the XML may just be showing the paradrop stuff from before, but the code inside is no longer supporting it.

I think parachuting spies and special forces would be fun...

Yup, it's a feature I'd like to see in the game- wonder how it made the balance off or the game not fun so they took it out?

German paratroopers are called "Fallschirmjaeger" btw, they wouldnt be called "Volkgrenadier" anymore.
