Templates Tranfser

Hey to all

If I create a carrier battle group can I make it template and transfer it from a map to another?

Thanx!

One thing you can do is pressing Ctrl+C, open a new mission and then pressing Ctrl+V. 

As an alternative, you can also save a group as a template. 

But both of these methods only work on a single group. If you have any individual units or static units in that template, then it will not be possible to save and import all of them together.

The only type of template that can be used with ships is the Static Template, but they are map-specific. However, it is possible to edit the LUA code of a MIZ file to set it on a different map, but then you would have to manually adjust each unit position, as each map has a different coordinate origin, which is almost as much work as re-editing the template from scratch.

I edited a few, if you want to check how they work:

I don't know from the top of my head, but its probably described how to do it in the User Manual 2020 in the docs folder. 

But then again maybe Rudel is right and it doesn't work with ships.

So then that would leave you with copy and pasting them to the various maps and save the mission as your template.
