Modifying CO stats
This Reference Page assumes you have followed or understand the basics of Custom CO creation. In case you do not, check out that tutorial first.
This page can serve as a reference on how to modify the stats of COs during the day to day, Power and Super Power. The return values of the functions in this Reference can be conditioned with the help of the function co.getPowerMode(), which has several return values, among them:
- GameEnums.PowerMode_Tagpower
- GameEnums.PowerMode_Superpower
- GameEnums.PowerMode_Power
And a default value, which can be used to set the day to day abilities.
The following functions modify the general stats of a CO. For specific Units and Unit Types modifications, check out the info on Category:Units
Common Parameters
Before we get to the functions, it's important to familiarize yourself with some of these parameters. Many of the functions use them, and most of the time they serve the same purpose. Therefore, instead of repeatedly explaining what they do every time they show up in a function, they will be explained here.
- The co parameter refers to the CO object. You will find this in practically every function here. We use this to reference data related to the CO itself, such as the aforementioned co.getPowerMode() which is used to check the current state of the CO power.
- The action parameter refers to the action object. Typically found in functions called just before or after moving a unit, you can use this to grab data related to the act of moving the unit itself. For example, action.getMovePath().length returns a number corresponding to the number of spaces moved.
- The map parameter refers to the map object. It is often used to reference data related to the game map, such as map.getCurrentDay() which returns the current day count as an integer.
- The posX and posY parameters are integers containing coordinates. They usually refer to the selected unit's position.
Offensive Bonus Modifier
This function is called when calculating how much damage the CO's units do in battle. In addition to being called during a battle, the game calls it just before a battle to display the estimated damage percentage.
this.getOffensiveBonus = function (co, attacker, atkPosX, atkPosY,
defender, defPosX, defPosY, isDefender, action, luckMode, map)
{
return 0;
};
The function takes an integer as the return type.
Parameters
- attacker refers to the attacking unit (your unit).
- atkPosX and atkPosY are integers referring to the attacker's position. This is the actual attacking position, not the attacker's starting position (if the attacker has moved before attacking).
- defender refers to the defending unit (the enemy).
- defPosX and defPosY are integers referring to the defender's position.
- isDefender is a boolean. It is false if the CO started the battle, and true otherwise.
- The luckMode parameter appears to serve a technical purpose. The game uses it to calculate the maximum and minimum luck damage in order to display them before a battle (if the "detailed battle info" option is enabled in the settings). When the function is called during the actual battle, luckMode will always be equal to GameEnums.LuckDamageMode_On, so it should have no gameplay effect.
Defensive Bonus Modifier
This function is called when calculating how much defense the CO's units have. Like getOffensiveBonus, outside of the actual battle, the game also calls this to display the estimated damage percentage.
this.getDeffensiveBonus = function (co, attacker, atkPosX, atkPosY,
defender, defPosX, defPosY, isAttacker, action, luckMode, map)
{
return 0;
};
The function takes an integer as the return type.
Do not correct the typo in the function's name ("Deffensive" instead of "Defensive"), as it won't work if you do.
Parameters
- attacker refers to the attacking unit (the enemy).
- atkPosX and atkPosY are integers referring to the attacker's position. This is the actual attacking position, not the attacker's starting position (if the attacker has moved before attacking).
- defender refers to the defending unit (your unit).
- defPosX and defPosY are integers referring to the defender's position.
- isAttacker is a boolean. It is true if the CO started the battle, and false otherwise.
- The luckMode parameter appears to serve a technical purpose. The game uses it to calculate the maximum and minimum luck damage in order to display them before a battle (if the "detailed battle info" option is enabled in the settings). When the function is called during the actual battle, luckMode will always be equal to GameEnums.LuckDamageMode_On, so it should have no gameplay effect.
Cost Modifier
This function can change the costs of all the units of a CO.
this.getCostModifier = function (co, id, baseCost, posX, posY, map)
{
return 0;
};
This function takes an integer as the return type.
Parameters
- id is a string containing the unit's ID. For example, the infantry unit's ID is "INFANTRY". Note that the IDs don't always match the unit's name, so please take a look at these pages for a list of unit IDs.
- baseCost is an integer containing the unit's default price. You can use this to manipulate how much a given unit costs for your CO.
- Since the function is called before the unit itself is even built, the posX and posY parameters here instead refer to the position where the unit will be produced.
Full example
this.getCostModifier = function(co, id, baseCost, posX, posY, map)
{
if (id === "INFANTRY") //If the unit is Infantry
{
return baseCost; //By returning the baseCost itself, the baseCost will be added to the default price, effectively doubling it.
}
if (id === "LIGHT_TANK") //If the unit is a Light Tank
{
return -baseCost * 0.2; //This returns a negative value that is 20% of baseCost. In this case, 20% of the Light Tank's default price is 1400. 7000 - 1400 = 5600, therefore, your CO's Light Tanks will cost 5600.
}
return 0; //If none of the above conditions are met, then the cost will be unmodified.
};
The above example makes your CO's Infantry cost 2000 and Light Tanks cost 5600, while everything else is unchanged.
Movement Points Modifier
This function allows you to modify a unit's movement points.
Function structure:
this.getMovementpointModifier = function (co, unit, posX, posY, map)
{
return 0;
};
Return type of the function is an Integer
Full example
this.getMovementpointModifier = function (co, unit, posX, posY, map)
{
if (co.getPowerMode() === GameEnums.PowerMode_Superpower ||
co.getPowerMode() === GameEnums.PowerMode_Tagpower)
{
return 2;
}
else if (co.getPowerMode() === GameEnums.PowerMode_Power)
{
return 1;
}
return 0;
};
The above example is exactly like Adder, where your CO's Super Power allows all units to move two additional spaces, and one space if it's the normal CO Power.

};
Repair Cost Modifier
Lets you change the repair costs.
this.getRepairCostModifier = function (co, id, repairCost)
{
return 0;
};
If you set the return value to -1 makes it so repair costs are free, -2 or less will give you funds back, 1 and more will increase the repair costs.
Parameters
- co will work on your co's
- id will work on certain units type
- repaircost will work all your unit & depends on the value you put in
Example
No repairs funds
this.getRepairCostModifier = function (co, id, repairCost)
{
return -1;
};
Receive repair funds
this.getRepairCostModifier = function (co, id, repairCost)
{
return -5;
};
How does it work? Here the value works, -1 will not drain your funds (think of it a freebie repair), -1 or beyond than -1 will receive funds e.g -10 (you gain funds when repairing a unit), if you set the value outside -1 e.g 30 you have to pay more repair funds depends on the value you put in (you have to pay more repair funds)
this.getRepairCostModifier = function (co, id, repairCost)
{
return repaircost; //By returning the repairCost itself, the repairCost will be added to the default repairprice, effectively doubling it or make it as freebie
};
{
return repaircost; /*This return to cut the repaircost e.g fighter 4k repairs (10%) if you add +20% (0.2) that will make 30% the fighter will repair about 12K worth of your own funds for that repairs, if you want the funds back e.g fighter usually it 4k for repairs if you set like -5 you receive 16K funds for it, how that work is this 10% -50% that will go toward negative -40% so you received 40% repair funds back, for the freebie you have to set it -1 so an infantry usually repair about 200 funds for it during the next turn your funds won't drop or you could say not spending 200 funds on the infantry repairs.
Note: this code if you set it -1 and this code can be negated EnemyRepairCostModifier but not -5 or beyond*/
}
- Sidenote this also effect Caulder's CO zone effects
Enemy Repair Cost Modifier
Lets you modify your opponent's repair costs.
this.getEnemyRepairCostModifier = function(co, id, repairCost, posX, posY, map)
{
return 0;
};
This allow you just modifier your opponent (enemy) repair cost
Parameters
- co will work on your co
- id will work on certain units type
- repaircost will modifier your repair cost
- posX will work on units position X
- posY will work on units position Y
- map will work on map
Example
this.getEnemyRepairCostModifier = function(co, id, repairCost, posX, posY, map)
{
switch (co.getPowerMode())
{
case GameEnums.PowerMode_Tagpower:
case GameEnums.PowerMode_Superpower:
return 9000;
break
case GameEnums.PowerMode_Power:
return 30;
break
return 0;
}
};
How does it work? If you set the value like 30 the opponent will pay extra 300% of repairs funds, if you set like 9000 value that mean opponent (enemy) no longer repairs
this.getEnemyRepairCostModifier = function(co, id, repairCost, posX, posY, map)
{
return repaircost; //This allow you to effect against your opponents repaircost, the normal repair cost an infantry 200 funds for that repairs it will increase the repair cost on opponents turns by how much the value is.
};
Income Bonus
Let you modified Income gains
this.getBonusIncome = function(co, building, income, map)
{
if (CO.isActive(co))
{
return income * CO_TEST.d2dPercentIncomeBonus + CO_TEST.d2dFlatIncomeBonus;
}
return 0;
};
d2dPercentIncomeBonus//This allow you to put the value whatever number you want it like this 0.1 or 0.whatever the value you wanted.
d2dFlatIncomeBonus//This allow you to gain additional funds as a extra income
How does it work?
Since this is only affect on your co income gain per props you own, e.g City (Town) usually give you 1000 per turn but with the bonus income you gain what ever amount of income value you put in the income code
The FlatIncomeBonus will set it self as a permanent itself so you have a city if you put the D2Dflatincome bonus let just say 50 you gain 1050 fund per turns
