Upgrade your transport planes
Now you are able to upgrade your transport planes to fly faster, further, armor and reliability.
Build for game version 1.15+, where 2 new transport planes techs where added to the game.
You can insert this mod safely in an ongoing game. However if you use(d) the prior mod, UTP or BTP (see below) AND you have already researched 1 or both of the upgraded techs, you will need to alter your savegame. This is because the game does not add the newer planes in the crafting menu of air equipment. You will need to re-research the techs.
1)Locate your savegame in your user document folder (C:UsersUsernameDocumentsParadox InteractiveHearts of Iron IVsave games with a text editor (Notepad++ recommended).
FIRST make a copy of the file!!
2) Open the savegame with a text editor, Notepad++ is recommended.
3) Search for the following textline
improved_transport_plane={
And remove that plus the 4 lines below, for example:
bba_improved_transport_plane={
level=1
date="1941.8.9.1"
locked_design_team=""}
And, if you have researched lvl 3 tech, search for:
strategic_airlifter_plane={
Example
bba_strategic_airlifter_plane={
level=1
date="1941.8.9.1"
locked_design_team=""}
4)Remove the lines and search again to be sure, normally the AI does not research these techs but still. Afterwards save the file.
5) When you are back in the game, you can either normally research the techs again or use the console command "Research_on_icon_click" to quickly re-research.
This mod is a continuation of 1230James (Upgradeable Transport Planes) and ConfidencialNivelHF4 (Buffed Transport Planes) mods.
You will have to unsubscribe/remove their mods or the game/techs remains broken!
The mod has no compatibility issues with other mods, unless they change the Transport section in the Air tech file.
No DLC requirements.
