restricting movement into village (to full mv cost)
Hi the unit below can travel on land (flat) with 1 mv cost, but on trying to enter a vila I want the cost to be the full mv of the unit, so it takes their whole movement that turn, this is the "docking" idea in conquest, the new unit is land based, old conquest transports were just boats. I have set the movement cost of village=10 and a variable to try to impose this later down the wml, but can't seem to force the cost of entering villages to be 10, it seems stuck at 1 due to the flat movement cost, any ideas?

Re: restricting movement into village (to full mv cost)
You can probably use village=-10 instead of village=10 to allow a minimum of 10 movement on any village.
EDIT: Nevermind, doesn't seem to work.

Re: restricting movement into village (to full mv cost)
I guess you can always write a variable into those units and use it as filter in a moveto event wich reduces movement to zero.
Edit: Maybe I understood bad your idea: If you want a 10mp unit be unable to enter village once he has already moved 1 hex, then you need "harder" solutions. One would be create a custom terrain type and use it as base for villages overlays. Other solution (a little dirty) would be use the moveto event to send unit back to hex from wich entered village and restore 1mp (for player it woild look like his unit rebound against an invisible forcefield surronding village)
