How to change the class of the unit? That the animal was considered infantry

at the unit's techtree entry, there's a line that says class = 'ANML' and if you change ANML to CHTR it counts as infantry. it won't display as infantry in its description though, for that you also need to alter the line ANML at its description entry to CHTR

What should be done to rhino transporter could transport animals?

both of those requires serious usl scripting
to begin with even if you 'convert' any animal into an infantry unit the unit would have serious bugs (e.g. because of common links and animations infantry units use)
for the rhino transporter to transport animal units too would need both client and server sided scripting (hell lot of it...)

Why not try?

But I do not understand how to do it (

DryFun wrote:Why not try?

i won't do it because:
1) ton of work
2) lots of possible bugs (errors)
3) i don't like the idea to be honest (whats the point in having animals in open transporters? imagine having a wild boar or mammth on a rhino basket...)

i don't know all the details either, but i can assure you: its complicated

I almost did what I wanted.It was not as hard as you said,It was only necessary to replace classname = 'CWoolly_Rhino' to classname = 'CHu'

hmm.. basically if you mount a rhino transporter onto another one, and that one into another one, it will look like a staircase of rhinos

this is a bad workaround if i may add. with replacing simply its classname to CHu (norsemen infantry base class) is taking away everything from it that made the battle rhino special (the defense bonus aura, the shake ability, etc)
the endproduct looks funny though, i must admit

please make this with the rhino transporters, then transport a rhino transporter with another rhino transporter, then mount the transporting transporter onto another transporter and so on, and make a screenshot, I really wanna see that

Will that work? Doesn't work with transport ships. Apart from that, I belive the transporter is a special class. Making it a CHu will likely break the transporter-behaviour. Could be wrong though.

When replacing classname,rhino transporter becoming rhino

you are correct, with CHu all the transporter things are lost, like base rider. which also means it won't have any basket on its back to begin with

Pity, it would have looked awesome for sure

Especially when you consider that it is working in multiplayer
