What Filetype do MOD's use
This might sound dumb, but what do I need to make a MOD into. Previously, I would play on my own, so it wouldn't matter just slapping the Raw files (Rules.INI) into the directory of my game. I know ...

So it would be impossible to give the unit a Locomotion Type that had Amphibious capability without coding in the Locomotor from scratch.
While I know that it's impossible to give a single unit two Locomotion Types, could an IF Statement be included to provide one of two different Locomotors depending on what Ground Type it's moving on.
If that wasn't possible maybe changing the passage types (adding a new type). Currently in the base game there are:
-Foot
-Track
-Wheel
-Float
Would it be possible to add an additional 'Amphibious' Movement Type, if so, how would I begin about doing that? (where should I start).
If that wasn't possible, would forcing every single vehicle to use Tracked Movement, and then giving Wheeled Movement to anything I want o be Amphibious, then changing Water Passage so Wheeled units can move on it. Would that work properly as a work-around?

I was going to say, you're mad, but you might actually have a method of pulling it off. LUNATIC!
Moving around using Wheeled movement as the Amphibious Movement would be a lot easier to code in though, all be it long-winded. Since you'd need to change every Wheeled Unit, and every Water and Shore piece most likely.
Though I will say: "You're insane" - Quoting Lizbeth SAO
Edit: Also, wouldn't that actually speed up all Wheeled Vehicles, since if you change them to use Tracked movement, they will move as good as a Tracked unit. Since Tracked Units don't have the same penitently as Wheeled Units on Shorelines and on Ore.
