Getting rid of the armour display.

Is there any way to get rid of the icon and text next that describes armour and movespeed on the unit panel?

I don't think there is.

But I maybe wrong

Yes and no. FDF editing can move it off the screen (So that it is not visible); however modified FDF's only work offline. As such this kind of editing is only meant for Total Conversions that have their own full MPQ, or Campaigns.

Thats a no then. I've started workign around it and I managed to remove all the text from the tooltip apart from the bit showing speed(Very Slow, Slow, Average, Fast, Very Fast). Can anyone point me to the string?

There is a different string for each of those and they are named "Text - General - 'Very Slow'" and so forth. I guess putting a " " (as in space) in each of those should do the trick.

Thanks, both of you.

Now, for my final question. What setting determines the time it takes for a Tavern to activate when a unit comes nearby?

Hmm, I'm not 100% sure about this, but my guess is that it cannot be changed. It's just like all the auras; they have a little activation delay and such.

Hmmm, guess it's time to make another selection system.

Possible take a look at the 'select ???' ability it has, probably something to do with cooldown/something. If that doesn't do anything, then it must be hard coded.

I think you can change it, but you must change all other auras. Try searching under Gameplay Constants.

Checked the Select Unit ability already, nothing.
I've searched all through the Gameplay Constants, couldn't find anything.
It doesn't matter because I remade the system anyway.

Thanks for making the effort.

Aura refresh rate is hardcoded into the WCIII game system.
