Predator for special hard point add-ons but for squad magic I believe it was the command squads.

...how can I see it implemented?

To put it in your project, simply use/put addons in the entity you want to have them, and then you will see in game, that the squad that contains this entity has a button that contains the addons. :thumbsuphappy:

... Just use the UM profile for your race as well. Nothing else is needed.

I got my race to load up the UMprofile by copying the if race clause, still blank req/power and no squad UI. This is proving tricky!

 

Ah, that needs the UMrace as a required mod! Now have a menu but the add-ons are not showing up in it.

... Did you change the appropriate line in FreeUI scar? There is no need to to use UM mod as a required one!

Just go at the line:

...elseif player_race == "ultra_marine_race" then ShowSpecificUI_Ultramarines(show)

And replace the ultra_marine_race with your race for now. :twisted:

 

IMPORTANT!!!!

Also remember, in the scarutil of YOU race, you MUST import FreeUI!

import("FreeUI.scar")

... Otherwise the code will not start, and you will have a ... black UI.

I have done the above and it was black until I added ultramarines. My unit has a build button, but nothing in the menu.

Your entity has the addon ext, but are requirements of the addon in there, met?

Also, is it UI position 1?

Winning! Turns out if you don't have a requisites folder at all then the mod cannot see it exists and causes CTD - awesome.

 

How do I turn off advanced build menu on my builders? It's currently a pink square. I copy/pasted the UM code so it must be in there somewhere? 

 

Also I could really do with Admech alfa1... anyone?

You must make a different profile for your race, using the UM one forces you to use their adv_build menu as well...

I will have to edit the taskbar lua and the freeui scar to do it...

What race are we talking about?

I'll flesh it out a bit first, still recovering from the squad_hold failure. You got admech 1? maybe admech 2?

I need an add-on to unlock that units ability to get weapon upgrades. There are multiple of this squad, so you can't set the weapon pre-requisite as local add-on, as that unlocks it for all that type of unit globally.

I've tried using enable upgrade UI to -1, enabled by add-on, but no deal. I've tried setting squad heavy weapons to 0, increased by add-on, but no deal. Any other ideas?

You can create an ability that requires the local addon to enable weapon.

THIS WILL NOT WORK!!!

You MUST set the original squad weapon upgrades to at least 1, otherwise they will NEVER be available, even if you set a modifier that allows more.

The best workaround:

1] Set the max weapon upgrades to 1

2] Put a modifier addition -1 to the modifiers_ext of the entity to max squad weapon upgrades.
