Which file sets food limits?

Most of the game constants come from units\miscdata.txt or units\miscgame.txt, but the supply limits and upkeep amounts are not there. What file are they set in?

if you are using tft, then use the game constants editor in the WE

if you are using RoC, i thought it was miscdata.txt.... isnt there a miscdata.slk as well? i really dont know, it may even have been hardcoded in RoC

wrong no file sets food limit.

There must be a file that sets it somewhere. Perhaps I could just set its value in blizzard.j or something (perhaps someone knows the name of the global variable that holds this number?). I'm not making a map, so I can't use game constants.

You could make the changes in the Game Constants then export the file.

u need food constants but u'r not making a map ?
well, u could edit miscdata.slk in war3.mpq and that would theoreticaly make u cheat, but i think that u couldn't play on B.net then...
or u could make changes in the gameplay constants and try exporting it somehow...if that can be done ?
can it ? :)

Thanks, problem solved.

I extracted the war3mapmisc.txt from a test map and learned that you can just insert lines such as this:

FoodCeiling=300
UpkeepUsage=40,50,60,70,80,90,100,120,150,10000
UpkeepGoldTax=0.00,0.10,0.20,0.30,0.40,0.50,0.60,0.70,0.80,0.90
UpkeepLumberTax=0.00,0.10,0.20,0.30,0.40,0.50,0.60,0.70,0.80,0.90

into units\miscdata.txt to change food limits for a mod rather than a map.

You owe me man. :-)

Elfis I did exactly what you said you did. I pulled out the war3mapmisc.txt from the map. I then copied the foodceling info from the war3mapmisc.txt into the miscdata.txt. I then plugged in the miscdata.txt to the units\miscdata.txt dir. When I open up a map I still see the default war3 values.

I did the exact steps you mentioned and because there was no success I can't believe that what you said works. Did you actually test this? If so what am I doing wrong?
