Hi, I have been trying to add a purchasable upgrade to my new hero that changes its model and adds some attributes at level 5; however, for some reason I keep getting this message in the game "this unit cannot receive this upgrade"

upgrade.ini

Upgrade Upgrade_TrueAlphaWarg
Type = OBJECT
Tooltip = TOOLTIP:AlphaWarg
DisplayName = Upgrade:AlphaWargUpgrade
ButtonImage = BuildingNoArt
BuildCost = ALPHA_WARG_UPGRADE_BUILDCOST
BuildTime = ALPHA_WARG_UPGRADE_BUILDTIME
Cursor = WeaponUpgrade
;StrategicIcon = AptStrategicUnitUpgradeBannerCarrier
UpgradeFX = FX:EvilLevelUpFX
RequiredObjectFilter = NONE
End

commandbutton.ini

CommandButton Command_PurchaseUpgradeTrueAlphaWarg
Command = OBJECT_UPGRADE
Options = NEED_UPGRADE CANCELABLE OK_FOR_MULTI_SELECT
Upgrade = Upgrade_TrueAlphaWarg
NeededUpgrade = Upgrade_ObjectLevel5
TextLabel = CONTROLBAR:PurchaseUpgradeTrueAlphaWarg
ButtonImage = BGFortress_IvoryTower ;;,;; TEMPORARY
ButtonBorderType = UPGRADE
DescriptLabel = CONTROLBAR:ToolTipPurchaseUpgradeTrueAlphaWarg
InPalantir = Yes ;,; No
LacksPrerequisiteLabel = TOOLTIP:LackAlphaLevel5
End

  Here is where it should change the model, which it does if a remove the purchasable upgrade required:

  Behavior = ModelConditionUpgrade ModuleTag_ModelAlphaWarg
  TriggeredBy = Upgrade_ObjectLevel5 Upgrade_TrueAlphaWarg
  AddConditionFlags = USER_2
  Permanent = Yes
  RequiresAllTriggers = Yes
  End

  Behavior = AttributeModifierUpgrade ModuleTag_AlphaWargBonus
  StartsActive = No
  TriggeredBy = Upgrade_TrueAlphaWarg
  AttributeModifier = TrueAlphaWargBonus
  AttributeModifierAffectsSelf = Yes
  End

  Besides that i did not add anything to this hero's ini. I must be missing something. Somehow, I need to tell the game that this upgrade can be purchased by this unit/hero. I tried removing the required prerequisite in the commandbutton, but still the button is inactive in the game. I would really appreciate any suggestions on how to make that upgrade available to this unit.

Does the object ever get to level 5 ?

in experience file , does it get the upgrade Upgrade_ObjectLevel5 at level 5 ?

try removing the 

NeededUpgrade = Upgrade_ObjectLevel5 and 

NEED_UPGRADE

 

for testing to see if it can get it at level 1

Yes, it gets Uprade_ObjectLevel 5. Everything was working just fine until I tried adding another required upgrade that actually costs money. I also tried removing  NEED_UPGRADE and NeededUpgrade = Upgrade_ObjectLevel5.  It did not help. I feel like I did not add something to the hero ini that should have been added.

I think the hero code needs 

 

Behavior = ProductionUpdate  ProductionUpdateModuleTag

  GiveNoExp = Yes

End 

 

Try changing the upgrade to Upgrade_IsengardHeavyArmor instead of Upgrade_TrueAlphaWarg

Then purchase the Heavy Arnor and see if you can now upgrade your Hero

Thank you for the suggestions. I have tried using Upgrade_IsengardHeavyArmor instead and unfortunately it did not work either

I also added this; it did not have any effect.

 

 

Behavior = ProductionUpdate  ProductionUpdateModuleTag

  GiveNoExp = Yes

End

This helped me solve the issue. I added that piece of code and used the Upgrade_IsengardHeavyArmor template to create the new upgrade.
Now everything works properly: upgrade is available for purchase at level 5. After it is purchased, the model changes as well. Thank you very much!
