Hey guys..

I am currently using the DH mod, and I was wondering if anyone would be able to point me in the right direction for trying to change the unit of measurement from 1 square = 5' to 1 square =1m in the map section under pointers?

So, in short. I draw a line that is 3 grid boxes long and it says 15 when I want it to say 3.

If this is something that is hard code? If so, is there any one out there able to provide a tutorial on how to create an extension to allow me to make the change?

Much like what is used for the Advanced Images extension used in the Savage Worlds ruleset.


Any guidance would be great!.. thanks!

Open gameelements.xml in the 40K Dark Heresy ruleset and modify the <distance> section as required.

Thank you!


Now, the very last thing I need out is how to change the angle of the cone to a 30degree spray...
