Additional supports - Raytwo/Cobalt GitHub Wiki

Cobalt allows for new supports to be defined in a new gamedata file made specifically for this purpose.

Important

This file cannot be bundled (as it does not exist in the base game).

It will be read the same way as a patched XML file, and should be placed at patches/xml/Support.xml in your Cobalt mod.

Here is an example of how the XML should look:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Book Count="1">
    <Sheet Name="Support" Count="1">
        <Header>
            <Param Name="Supporting Character" Ident="Condition" Type="PublicArray" Min="" Max="" Chg="" />
            <Param Name="Supported Character" Ident="Pid" Type="string" Min="" Max="" Chg="" />
            <Param Name="Experience Type ID" Ident="ExpType" Type="u8" Min="0" Max="255" Chg="" />
        </Header>
        <Data>
            <Param Condition="PID_PLAYABLELUMERA_γƒ«γƒŸγ‚¨γƒ«" Pid="" ExpType="" />
            <Param Condition="" Pid="PID_γƒͺγƒ₯ール" ExpType="0" />
            <Param Condition="" Pid="PID_PLAYABLE_MORION" ExpType="0" />
            <Param Condition="" Pid="PID_PLAYABLE_EVE" ExpType="1" />
            <Param Condition="PID_PLAYABLE_EVE" Pid="" ExpType="" />
            <Param Condition="" Pid="PID_PLAYABLE_SEFORIA" ExpType="0" />
            <Param Condition="" Pid="PID_PLAYABLELUMERA_γƒ«γƒŸγ‚¨γƒ«" ExpType="0" />
        </Data>
    </Sheet>
</Book>

The Condition field determines which character will have the supports added to their list. The following entries consist of Pid for which unit to support and ExpType for the experience curve (works the same as Reliance).

Note

  • You still need to add the units to Reliance.xml for the game to consider the supports as present
  • Defining the support in only one direction is acceptable.
  • The groups in Support.xml will be processed in the same order as Reliance.xml.
  • This means the ExpType for the unit defined first in Reliance.xml will prevail over the other unit if the support is defined in both directions. In the example, Lumera and Eve would use ExpType 1 because Lumera is defined before Eve in Reliance.xml
