I have just started adding units to generals. I am trying to add an apache to the game. I used the commanche's code but changed the model. I can get the tooltip and everything to show up in the game but it won't let me build my unit. The unit is in black and white. Anyone know why this is happening? Heres the code.

You have to script the AI in order to build a unit? I was just trying to allow me to use the unit, not the computer. Do you have to script the AI to use the unit?

[the_kid]

whats the name of your model and damaged model... you codes a bit confusing... because you have apache and longbow in quite a few places... and what do you mean by not buildable... can you not click on it or does it build but there is nothing there?

[f22]

The game will not let me click on the units button.

[Mastermind]

Where exactly are you trying to build it from? Sometimes the problem isn't the unit, it's the production structure.

[the_kid]

I've had this problem before... if it won't let you click it, then its a problem with commandbutton.ini be sure you did everything right in your commandbutton.ini entry for that building...

[NVShacker]

Make sure that in commandbutton.ini it references the right unit and is UNIT_BUILD. It's obvious but I've made that mistake enough...
