.: I've been attempting to add a buildable V35Ox transport to the airfield, I have been able to add it to the airfields logic command set with no problem, icon even shows up in game, but even after building all tech structures it remains gray and unable to be built. I've edited the units cost and build time, even made the tech center a requirement for building it. I just can't seem to figure out what I'm missing, and why it wont become active for building.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

You need to create a Logic command for your logic command set to refer to. Every entry in a logic command set needs a corresponding logic command.

It would look something like this:

LogicCommand Type="UNIT_BUILD" id="Command_ConstructGDIV35Ox">    <Object>GDIV35Ox</Object>  </LogicCommand>

Hey Madin, log time no chat... Nice to see ya again....

Anywho, I already made the logic command and the logic command set, that's why this baffles me so much...

LogicCommand

	<LogicCommand
		Type="UNIT_BUILD"
		id="Command_ConstructGDIV35Ox">
		<Object>GDIV35Ox</Object>
	</LogicCommand>

LogicCommandSet

	<LogicCommandSet
		id="GDIAirTowerCommandSet">
		<Cmd>Command_ConstructGDIOrca</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_ConstructGDIFireHawk</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_ConstructGDIV35Ox</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_GDIRecallAllAircraft</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_CommandPostCallBloodhound</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_CommandPostBombingRun</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_TogglePower</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_SelfRepair</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_Sell</Cmd>
		<Cmd>Command_SetRallyPoint_Aircraft</Cmd>
	</LogicCommandSet>

... What I'm having trouble with is the unit is still grayed out and unable to be built, it shows up in the build list just fine.
I know I have to be missing something pretty blatantly obvious, I just can't seem to find it.

Here is my GDIV35Ox.xml as well..

I don't have much time for testing, but the issue appears to be in the 'KindOf' tags.

Copying the Orca 'KindOf' tags

PRELOAD CAN_CAST_REFLECTIONS CAN_ATTACK SELECTABLE SCORE AIRCRAFT VEHICLE ASSAULT_AIRCRAFT ATTACK_NEEDS_LINE_OF_SIGHT LINE_OF_SIGHT_IGNORES_BUILDINGS NO_COLLIDE CAN_BE_FAVORITE_UNIT

allows the unit to be build-able. Adding a transport tag on the end, will cause it to grey out again.

I have never added build-able air transports, but there are people who have, so you should be able to get answers, including the correct 'KindOf' tags to use.

---------------------------------------------------------------

In other news, I just realised they no longer have the [CODEBOX] code.

Hmm... well that's just a bit odd, anyway, currently still at work for another hour, but will give this another go when I get home and let ya know if I Figure anything out.

[Codiah]

So made a step int the right direction, not quite there though. I found that removing transport from the excluded types on the airfields landing pad now allows me to build the transport. I'm even able to load a unit into it, but I can not get it to move anywhere, it just sits on the pad, My cursor doesn't even change to the move cursor.

Any Ideas?
