Does anyone know if it would be possible to make the units encyclopedia of BK accessible via the menu so that one can browse through all units inside the game? I've searched tought the threads on the forum but could not find anything on this subject.

It can be done... however it would require extra code in the Interface... not an easy undertaking.
Perhaps the best place to place it would be in the Menu / Options. That is the least used location and has the least amount of code to rewrite.
From there it would launch the original Encyclopedia Interface.
One issue that I can forecast... Units that have not been updated for the Encyclopedia will not show up. Only about 20% of my work uses those files, so it would require a huge amount of work on my part... or some good natured helper.

The Options menu would indeed be the best place to get to the encyclopedia. Having direct access to the encyclopedia would be a game improvement I think. This community has some members that are like walking encyclopedia's when it comes to knowledge of WWII arms and vehicles, so unit descriptions should not be a problem I guess. Also reference to the original owner/creator of the owner could be placed inside the encyclopedia. What would be required for a unit to show up in the encyclopedia ?

With a small detour. For "Erkennungs-Handbuch" you can also enroll anywhere something else. mbkg Feldgrau
