from factionbuilding.ini the modules for americacommandcenter

End


if there are any other files i need to post let me know.

SCIENCE_SpectreGunshipSolo buys SuperweaponSpectreGunship.

SCIENCE_SpectreGunship1, SCIENCE_SpectreGunship2 & SCIENCE_SpectreGunship3 buy AirF_SuperweaponSpectreGunship.

You need to buy SCIENCE_SpectreGunshipSolo to get the spectre gunship to work. Or you can start again and take the code from airforce general to get all three working.

ok i just tested it, with no luck. i went in the airforegeneral.ini and changed all three of the spectres sides to america and prerequisites to americaairfield

something im missing?

That's not what I meant.

8 = Command_SpectreGunship <---Here
should be:
8 = AirF_Command_SpectreGunship <---Here

8 = Command_SpectreGunshipFromShortcut should be:
8 = AirF_Command_SpectreGunshipFromShortcut
and:

Behavior = SpecialAbility ModuleTag_32
SpecialPowerTemplate = SuperweaponSpectreGunship
UpdateModuleStartsAttack = Yes
End
Behavior = SpectreGunshipDeploymentUpdate ModuleTag_33
SpecialPowerTemplate = SuperweaponSpectreGunship
GunshipTemplateName = AmericaJetSpectreGunship
AttackAreaRadius = 200
CreateLocation = CREATE_AT_EDGE_FARTHEST_FROM_TARGET
;other choices are: *NEAR_SOURCE *FARTHEST_FROM_SOURCE *NEAR_TARGET
End

should be:

Behavior = SpecialAbility ModuleTag_32
SpecialPowerTemplate = AirF_SuperweaponSpectreGunship
UpdateModuleStartsAttack = Yes
End

Behavior = SpectreGunshipDeploymentUpdate ModuleSpectre_3
SpecialPowerTemplate = AirF_SuperweaponSpectreGunship
RequiredScience = SCIENCE_SpectreGunship3
GunshipTemplateName = AirF_AmericaJetSpectreGunship3
AttackAreaRadius = 200
CreateLocation = CREATE_AT_EDGE_FARTHEST_FROM_TARGET
;other choices are: *NEAR_SOURCE *FARTHEST_FROM_SOURCE *NEAR_TARGET
End
Behavior = SpectreGunshipDeploymentUpdate ModuleSpectre_2
SpecialPowerTemplate = AirF_SuperweaponSpectreGunship
RequiredScience = SCIENCE_SpectreGunship2
GunshipTemplateName = AirF_AmericaJetSpectreGunship2
AttackAreaRadius = 200
CreateLocation = CREATE_AT_EDGE_FARTHEST_FROM_TARGET
;other choices are: *NEAR_SOURCE *FARTHEST_FROM_SOURCE *NEAR_TARGET
End
Behavior = SpectreGunshipDeploymentUpdate ModuleSpectre_1
SpecialPowerTemplate = AirF_SuperweaponSpectreGunship
RequiredScience = SCIENCE_SpectreGunship1

End



Sorry, I had to edit the final one, I screwed up the code.

If you need help, post in the forum. You'll get help a lot faster than if you send me a PM.

I reject all buddy requests. I don't think 'buddy' needs to be made official. It's not like you're marrying me.

you a wealth of knowledge my friend. thank you for all the help you have provided me over the last week.

it showed up on the shortcut and the commande center now, but... now it is flying upside down in the corner that it started from...

Catch the last part of my last post. I edited it because I completely forgot part of the code. Sorry about that.

nvm, my mistake
