Sorry if I am getting ennoying by posting too offen but I just have a lot of questions . So...how do I add a new building? I create it's ini and then what?

[Ridder Geel]

Make sure the object is unique... then make a commandbutton that constructs the building... then add that commandbutton in the porters' commandset Voila, you have a new structure

When you say unique do you mean that it has a unique name or unique name,commandset,display name,etc.

The object name like Object GondorBarracks or whatever it is Its pretty simple before my comp crashed I did that for all of Numenor, Arnors, Rohan, and Fellowship buildings. Blame it all on my brother

Post code?

[JUS_SAURON]

Post code?

Also know that porter radial buttons need to be at
7 = Porterbuild_newStructure

and beyond ...best to add it last on the list

[under-mountain]

here is the commandbutton;

CODE

CommandButton Command_PorterConstructBlueBarracks
Command = DOZER_CONSTRUCT
Object = BlueBarracks
TextLabel = CONTROLBAR:ConstructBlueBarracks
ButtonImage = BDHallWarriors
ButtonBorderType = BUILD
DescriptLabel = CONTROLBAR:ToolTipConstructBlueBarracks
Radial = Yes
End

The button / build codes look good
Try replacing the object with one already ingame
Object = BlueBarracks
for TESTING ...like the dwarven barracks

BTW do you actually see the button in the workers buildlist ???

no

I replaced the object with dwarfbarracks but the button still doesn't appear

I replaced the object with dwarfbarracks but the button still doesn't appear

Problem is with the button ...
or the alloted spaces to the right of screen for buildings

Try adding the commandbutton to a wildporter who has less buttons / buildings

Try using an existing button and changing what it builds eg farm TO new_barracks

you must debug to determine if the problem is the building or button

I just did this and it builds normal...Now is the problem that there isn't enouph space or is there something wrong with the commandbutton?If there is no solution I'll just add a new builder

that would depend on which one of the 'Try this ... ' you did

If it is a button problem just duplicate the button codes but change the name / art / descrition etc.

If it IS a space problem....
There is a way to get more buildings but it is a bit complex to describe here ...
I gave the worker a Double commandset Toggle
that allows for TWICE the alloted buildings ...more than enough space
the codes are in my mod so check my sig and download
look at a menporter or mordor porter codes / commandset
