I was just playing GC and I noticed this. Vader, at his once-upgraded stage (him with squadron of TIE Avengers), should have three powers: power to weapons, hunt for enemies and replenish squadron. However, only two can show up in the interface: hunt for enemies and power to weapons. I assume all non-shown abilities are put on auto fire. Is this true?

It if is, I think it is bugged. I just fought a battle where Vader lost his wing men and I could not for the life of me get him to replenish, and he had to sit out the rest of the battle. Very frustrating. Can you switch the positions of hunt for enemies and replenish wing men? It would be a much more useful ability to always have at your disposal.

Also, Vader lacks flares, which makes keeping his wing men alive very difficult.

As a quick fix until the next version, it's rather easy to switch it out yourself. Go into his hero file, locate both his TIE and the related squadron, and either delete the Hunt ability or move it's code to the bottom of the ability grouping. When I get home, I can do that and upload the file if you need me to.

EDIT: I edited in the necessary bits, I think. It should be first on the GUI, as well as supporting auto-fire now. Let me know if you need another one done.

Auto-fire for Replenish Wingmen didn't work in v1.1. It works now, although it's not on by default for some reason, so you'll have to activate it.

I apologize for not being very computer-savvy. When I went to download the xml file, it opened it instead of saving the file. How can I save the xml file?

Left click the link, right click the Download Now button, then click save link as.

EDIT: Whoops, earlier instructions were wrong.

Didn't know Filefront did that, my bad! You can either do as mentioned above, and 'Save Link As', or open it and do 'File->Save Page As'.

Like I said, that's the vanilla v1.1 Darth Vader file. If you use any mods or self-edits, let me know if case one, and send me the file for case two.
