Using the new Upgrade System

Minimal version: 1.08 SE

Using new upgrade system

Version 1.08 SE of the RockPatch allows you to use new upgrade system.

tags which are used with this: UseNewUpgradeSystem=yes
NextStage=[unit, infantry, building, aircraft] type

The Code

 [E1]
 ...
 Primary=M60
 UseNewUpgradeSystem=yes
 NextStage=E1_VET
 Trainable=yes
 Cost=200
 ...
 [E1_VET]
 ...
 Primary=120mmxE ; :)
 TechLevel=-1
 Cost=2000 ; most bonus

Now when E1 will be promoted he will have 120mmxE weapon instead M60 weapon. NextStage must be the same type as the current unit. so if you specify this tag in VehicleType you must specify vehicle unit, not infantry or aircraft.

Please remember what you can not change all parameters: for example Locomotor can not be changed using new upgrade system. if you use it on building, Foundation tag must the same as original building. in opposite case you will have a very strange building. However nobody stop you to research it so you can try to create interesting effects.

NOTE: in revision 0027, infantry upgrade is not working properly
