You probably still need to edit the Units.dat , Weapons.dat , and give it a firing animation in the grp files

the unit.dat file i gave it 2 of the unused weapons, and i changed them in the weapon.dat file to lasers(ground) and missiles(air) and i used ice to make it use frame 0 as the attack frame etc, but when i play all it has is weapon, normal stuff, and attack button, but it wont fire, i think i did something wrong in ice

My best guess is that you forgot to put the Attack With 1(1=...) or the Attack With Appropriate Weapon scripts.

Yep, that's it. The attack with() command is the ICECC command that actually deals the damage. For better results, you might want to add frames to the shuttle GRP for its attack animation. That will make it look better from a graphical standpoint.

i found out how, after you have the frames and stuff you need, you have to edit units.dat and edit ai actions, and set the top 3 to guard, and the 4th to attack unit, and the 5th one to guard, that enables it to attack, and if you want ill send you the mpq if you wanna modify the scripts and use it in your own mod biggrin.gif

The AI actions should have been the first thing you modified...
I don't think anyone here needs pre-made modified AI's...

"Newbs might" need instructions to explain to them how to do it themselves.
