1. To just make it attack I'd say look at the other towers, how they do it. To make it only attack when there are soldiers garrisoned you might have to do some programming though.

2. Palisades should/will be available in all phases by default. So no need to mod that.

This is something I hope we can fix/change. A few buildings (like the Outpost) I'd like to not shoot arrows unless a dude is garrisoned inside. Currently, you cannot set DefaultArrowCount to 0.

r11697 fixes this. Every unit that has at least one of the classes 'Infantry' and 'Ranged' counts as an archer.

If you're talking about the projectile error, I've just committed a new model that will fix that.

The errors (and warnings) are saved to mainlog.html (and a more verbose version to interestinglog.html). The location of these files depends on your OS.

Idk, my outposts don't seem to attack unless they're garrisoned, but this could be due to something that was changed after you wrote that. If thats not the case the code for my outposts is :

That's what I was saying. In that outpost setup the outposts should only attack when they're garrisoned, when they're empty they just stand there as near as I can tell. mind you that setup also changes their territory bonus a bit so it's more in line with the units LOS and range which I reason would determine how much territory it can control.

I used to have their garrisons limited to one unit per outpost they didn't look to fire when not garrisoned then either. Are ou seeing them fire without being garrisoned using that setup?

Actually, if my code is correct you can set DefaultArrowCount to 0 by simply not declaring a DefaultArrowCount. In other words change ex:

  <BuildingAI>
	<DefaultArrowCount>1</DefaultArrowCount>
	<GarrisonArrowMultiplier>0.5</GarrisonArrowMultiplier>
  </BuildingAI>

to

  <BuildingAI>
	<GarrisonArrowMultiplier>0.5</GarrisonArrowMultiplier>
  </BuildingAI>

It was fixed after I said that.

Well darn, i was hoping I'd actually be saying something useful.
