What does Import Module... do?

General Discussion

Hi folks, what does “Import Module…” in the menu do? For a normal player/user, is “Open Module…” all we care about?

“Import” is for converting modules from other programs’ formats, such
as ADC2. “Open” is for opening VASSAL modules.

Nice - thanks for the info.
I hadn’t heard of Aide de Camp 2 before.

It’s kind of a strange generic item to have on a main menu haha.

It’s not, really. Import has historically been in the File menu and
is for converting foreign file types, across a diverse range of
programs.
