How to make the Chinese bunker buildable for the GLA

Hi all, New poster here, I have been lurking for a little while now. This forum is awesome: knowledgeable posters and great resources!  I have recently begun doing some modding to Generals but I am running into a problem and I was hoping to get some help. I have tried to make the Chinese bunkers buildable for the GLA. I altered the GLA worker command set to include the Chinese bunker. Of course the Chinese bunker has a pre-requisite which is the China Command Center. I changed the pre-requisite to the GLA Command Center. Now this did work, but the problem of course is that the Chinese are unable to build a GLA Command Center so are unable to build their own bunkers! I tried copying a large patch of code pertaining to the Chinese bunkers within factionbuilding.ini, and then renamed the object to GLABunker, changing the side to GLA and changing the applicable command set to CommandSet = GLABunkerCommandSet. I then added a GLABunker commandset to the commandset.ini and commented out the line about landmines. None of this worked though and resulted in crashes.  Any help would be greatly appreciated! Regards, My Feet Hurt

Welcome !! So What I understand from you is you want Chinese bunkers to be available for both GLA and China ? I think you should Change the Prerequestis and make it like America strategy center -Either a war factory or an airfield- Without all of your editing, just copy a command set for the GLA worker and change this to The Chinese bunker Code: Prerequisites
Object = GLACommandCenter ChinaCommandCenter
Hope it helps

Oh wow, you guys are quick! Quote:So What I understand from you is you want Chinese bunkers to be available for both GLA and China ? Yes that's right. Quote:I think you should Change the Prerequestis and make it like America strategy center -Either a war factory or an airfield- Wouldn't that make the bunker unbuildable for even the Chinese? If the prerequisite is an American strategy centre, which the Chinese cannot build, then the prerequisite for the bunker can never be satisfied? Or am I misunderstanding you? Quote:Without all of your editing, just copy a command set for the GLA worker and change this to The Chinese bunker
Code:
?
1
2
Prerequisites
Object = GLACommandCenter ChinaCommandCenter
Gah! My intuition was telling me to do this! I didn't do it though because I saw no other example of it within the code that I looked through. Okay, I will try this. Thank you again for the quick reply!

-commandset in Worker
-and command button , done. I think I've done all that except for the command button, I will give that a try. Could you please explain what you mean above when you say "suitable of gla's power"? Thanks for the fast reply!

Resist, thanks a lot! Your prerequisite code worked just fine!
If I wanted to increase the number of units that the bunker could garrison for the GLA ONLY, I am assuming that I would need to copy that huge pile of code and rename things as adrianemapmaker has suggested above?

Quote:okay you can change the contain max here : That's fine, I found that the other day. My question was specifically if I want to have different attributes for the GLA bunker and the Chinese bunker do I need to copy all of the code and make a unique block of code for the GLA bunker? Quote:I think you got what I meant by the American strategy center,, didnt you ? Aha yes, I see now. Thanks! Edited by user Friday, April 21, 2017 9:13:33 AM(UTC)

Aha yes, I see now. Thanks!
Yeah you have to make some unique blocks, Like removing the minefield upgrade, maybe adding auto-turret or a death-weapon ! it depends on what you actually want to make it.
