Hero Leadership, Time of Day and Terrain Woes.

Curious, if you have two heroes selected at once, how do you determine which of the two leads the group?

Also if I set time of day, how fast does in game time travel by default, and how fast when using melee game time?

Also when placing cliff caves, I noticed inconsitencies with my map in the editor and the actual game. In the editor it looks fine, but in the game, the terrain near my cave entrance is quite glitched out and looks bad.

You don't, it is decided by formation rank. If you mean order in the selected box, I can't remember, sorry.

Can't remember off the top of my head, may be 3600 seconds default, but it is in gameplay constants.

Try viewing on game view in the WE.

Caves sometimes have issues, very much so if your using WEU. Try remaking them.

Default 24 WCIII hours is 360 seconds.

Last I checked it was 480 real time seconds. 8 minutes.

You can change this however you want. even the dawn and Evening ones to.

EDIT: also with caves if you are unable to fix the terrain discrepencies then use doodads to cover the areas where the issues are.

Every hero/unit has a field called Priority (I hope that it's called like this in english editor) which can be from 0 to 12; campaign's heroes have normally 12 which means that they will always be the first icon in groups. If 2 heroes have same priority, then the first one created has the first icon in groups.
