Staredit Network -> Modding Assistance -> my mod is CRASHING
Report, edit, etc...Posted by wingedcloud on 2006-10-13 at 09:18:31
when i was trying my mod, i gave the unit both air and ground weapon, but the unit is zealot, and i only want it to attack ground, but it looked at air units like overlords and freezed there unless i command it to do something. i got a feeling it was this bug that was causing the crashing. it happened after i insert the air attack for the unit in DE which was the random attack i wanted to show which the air attack box, but it caused crashing (i think) after looking at the air unit for too long.
i hope u guys can help me. first i thought it was the iscript, but theres nothing, so i researched, but i cant find anything. if i am need to show my mod so that my bug can be solved, please tell me.

ps. Voyager7456! how did you do the maelstorm effect for your chrongod in the incursion mod? please ignore this ps (<---) if you dont wanna answer.

I can answer both of those questions.

1) Did you change anything besides the Zealot? Please post either an MPQ or a list of all your changes, as described by DoA in the "To Modders" sticky thread.

2) In the iscript for the unit (this is ICE/ICECC again,) a line is added in that says, to put it plainly, "Display the active overlay x at the coordinates 0,0 from the unit's center" where x is the number for the Maelstrom overlay...if I'm not mistaken it's nine-hundred eighty something--wow, it's sad that I know even generally what some of the overlays are... pinch.gif

Yes, please tell us if you're using ICE or IceCC and post your iscript... I misunderstood your post on Warboards.

Lord is right, all I did was add a imgol08 command and change the palette used by Maelstrom in images.dat

@Lord: Heh, you think that's sad? I have all of the unit and weapon IDs used by Antithesis Rising memorized. blushing.gif

i solved both of the problem. the unit looked at the air units because it has air weapon, but does not have the animation, i wanted it to have the air weapon, so i can show u wan the random attack is, and i dont wan it to attack air. my maelstorm is abit of crappy... because everything it stops or moves, more maelstorms are added, and it blinded the unit.
