in the top ofthis forum at the sticky topics there is a topic that explanes it and how can u missed it the title is very clear? ("The Reason you cannot build some buildings!" )

I have some problems with Contra...

It is working cool and stuff, but it requires strategy center and then life stops... I build palace, strategy center or propaganda center and it still requires it this is very strange can you solve my problem please or any tipps?

OK... its clear you don't have a clean install OR you arn't BUILDING you strategy centers... are there onther mods your trying to use at the same time??? are you trying to use custom maps that have pre-exsisting buildings??? Are you trying to capture enemy buildings and use them???

If you have had other mods installed where you had to hand delete files to remove them try looking for this file:
ZeroHour/Data/Ini/Comandset.ini If it exsists in your ZeroHour folder, delete it. It might be overiding the commandset.ini from Contra. this COULD cause you to build the wrong buildings/units without instantly crashing the game.


When looking at a problem like this its important to know that the Strategy center is not "StrategyCenter" its "AirF_AmericaStrategyCenter" or "SupW_AmericaStrategyCenter" etc... In game both look the same, and are just called Strategy center. but in the code they are completely seperate structures and when a unit requires one as a pre-requisite no other strategy center will work. If you are playing AirF you NEED an AirF strategy center. you can't capture or use any pre-built structure from another general type. Propoganda centers and Palaces are the same. Flame and Tank Propoganda centers look the same, but because they offer different upgrades and have differnt armor values they are not the same unit in the code, and other centers do not work. this is true for every building in the game.
