currently on a caffeine binge and decided to look at the AOE2 DE map editor (it's pretty nostalgic). after a bit of googling I decided I'm going to make use of AI scripting to make some cool maps, hopefully we can try them out when they're done.
I'm going to start with a KOTH map where players can only create a certain type of unique unit, and the player with the monument can pay (an increasing) amount of gold to change each player's type of unique unit.
I'm hoping this is possible, going to go make a prototype. There's a bunch of hurdles like instantly changing all units to another type that idk if it's feasible.
As references I found these to be helpful so far:
AI scripting:

I have work the next three days but hopefully I'm not tired enough to get this done quick, lets see.
