Upgrade Units

Description
Status Update: I don't have great plans with this mod since CA implemented the unit upgrading in the Champions of Chaos DLC. There are other mods that use that system instead and do the same thing. (That said this mod still works fine.)

Allows you to upgrade some of the units into other units if they have a high enough experience rank.

List of available upgrades[docs.google.com] for units of WH2 factions
WH3 units upgrade paths: https://pastebin.com/cRFYzxDu

We've avoided upgrades that make no lore sense or are a huge combat style jump (for example going from cavalry with bow to lance).
If you can recruit the unit you're upgrading to locally the rank requirement is lowered by 2, if you can recruit it globally it's lowered by 1. The upgrade cost is also scaled by this.
Units will now keep half of their rank (rounded down) when upgrading.

This is a script mod, so compatible with everything (yes, that means SFO etc.), submods just allow for upgrade paths for new units the mods add.
It can be added and removed in existing saves.
I tried to make it compatible with MP, but currently no idea if it actually is.
Thanks to crisord for the mod thumbnail.
Has some options via the Mod Configuration Tool (MCT). You can enable upgrades for AI factions with this.
You can disable unit upgrades that come with this mod, if you only want upgrades from another mod or from a submod.
The upgrades will check for unit caps, and will check the cap limits in the Tabletop Unit Caps mod if you have that mod enabled.

Q&A
Add/remove/change a unit upgrade?
All the possible unit upgrades are definitely subject to change, and it's something I can change easily. Use the discussion thread below for that.

Mod no worky?
If the mod doesn't work for you the most likely cause is your ingame scripts are broken because some other mod you have has a script error and that makes other script mods stop working as well. Try this mod by itself to make sure.

Anyone asking for an update should look in the workshop for "warband upgrade ultimate" that let's you upgrade most factions using the Chaos DLC warband mechanic.

Getting crashes at the bonerattlaz faction turn. Script says the faction is upgrading units. I shut the mod off and the issue is completely gone. Please advise.

Thank you I am still quite new when it comes to modding and scripting is something quite alien to me, so i have not doubt that i will get it wrong many times before I get it right....ish. Anyways thank you again mate.

Kind regards Boss

@RC 38 Boss
sure, but you should rename a lot of things so the mods don't conflict with each other, like the global PJ_UPGRADE_UNITS at the top and any pj_xyz in event names and script file names

Good afternoon, Ik you maybe busy so I shall keep this short. May I have your permission to use the script in your mod as I would also like to be able to promote my base units to custom units. If you do, I will thank you in my mod and direct people to your mods, to use in future.

Kindest regards Boss

I know you don't have plans to update, but considering most vassal units and allies aern't upgradable without significant modding that in of itself usually has lots of incompatability, something like this would be great if it didn't rely on the warband system
