1a. Changing Population Capacity (without Building House…etc)

“Population Capacity” is the headroom of a player’s population supported by the houses / castles / town centers built by him / her. For example, if you build a house, your population capacity will go up by 5. However, with the help of AoKTS, a designer can change its amount without having the player own or lose any of these buildings:



Red: Select the player with altered population capacity.
Blue: Input the negative number of altered population capacity amount. For example, if you want to have 5 more population, you should enter -5; if you want to have 10 less population, you should enter 10.

Notes: The number of population capacity cannot exceed the maximum population.



1b.Changing Maximum Population

“Maximum Population” is one of the options you selected on the pre-game setting screen. It controls how many units a player can create throughout the game process. By implementing the following trigger effect with AoKTS in a scenario, a designer can overwhelm this pre-game setting:



Red: Select the player with altered maximum population.
Blue: Input the negative number of altered maximum population amount. For example, if you want to have 5 more population, you should enter -5; if you want to have 10 less population, you should enter 10.

Just like the normal maximum population, the player would not realize this limitation until they have reached it through building a certain number of house / castle / town center. Therefore, you may want to combine the above “Changing Population Capacity” trick with this one to achieve an instant increase or decrease in maximum population.

Notes: In the game, the player need to refresh the figure by either losing / training a unit, or building a house / castle / town center, to see the changes. Also, depending on the game setting, this trick sometimes won’t work on Huns.
