The Arch-alchemist Mythic Commodore tired of simple transmutations, such as creating new units and investigated new & exciting elixir relating to the export_descr_buildings.txt file.
Mythic Commodore has kindly shared his secret recipe with us so that we too can understand some of the arcane text files that govern the behaviour of M2TW.

Because I used the "pre" tag, people viewing on a smaller screen resolution might have difficulty reading the blue code bits. If that is happening for you, can you let me know what screen resolution and size screen you are viewing it at?

Thank you SubRosa and Gaius for the support. I am having trouble viewing the article on my ancient Dell 15" 1024x768 monitor.

Good referance for begining modders, lacks syntax examples for some of the more advanced options that are not used in the vanilla file.
Please try my M2TW campaign AI mod and give me some feedback.
