Editor: Unit editor

In unity version i plan to make an eaier way to send in new unit suggestions.

so by sending it it will contain unit stats, and required assets (eg. images)

At first i think we can start with the basic unit possibility
- adding a custom unit image (or anymated image)
- setting the basic stats
- you can reference existing abilities too (but you can not make new ones)
- you can reference other units with eg. terrain movements and bonuses and such.

when ready you can save it as a unit drawt
you can try the drawfts in mapeditor (when we will also have mapeditor)

you can send in in email/or by posting to server to offer to publish.

but i have no really idea how the UI should look like, if anyone have idea please share.
also good if u can make a screenshot from other games how that looks

EXTRA:
so the basics: you make a new unit with image and you also can try in game before submitting to me (any player)
and the extra: but after submitting others could also see and vote for it - to which new unit to put in game sooner,
and extra extra: others can also post your own images for that unit giving alternative to chose (and maybe even voting on these alternatives too) - all less voted images can go to skins too.


thanks!

Oh, that would be wonderful... though I also lack in the arts of UI-designing :sweat_smile:
