"Hack Internet" Mod. Tag Trouble

Berkut99 · 05-26-2003, 01:40 PM

I've been having a little bit of trouble with the Hacker's "hack internet" module tag. I attempted to add it to black lotus with a few small modifications to the amount of money recieved throughout the veteran status levels and nothing else. But after adding the tag and making no other changes to the FactionUnit.ini file, Black Lotus now no longer has the ability to move. She just stands there. I looked into the Locomotor.ini file and looked over the ChinaInfantryBlackLotus and Hacker again and again, but have yet to find the problem. Could somebody possibly tell me what I did wrong?

I'm posting the code here, just in case you need to look at it.

Code:

ok i found the problem. aperantly she cannot move.

Berkut99 · 05-26-2003, 08:01 PM

Yes, but what line or tag is causing this? I can't seem to figure it out.

Redattack3 · 05-28-2003, 08:37 PM

this is purely theoretical, but the hacker cant move while internet hacking can he? so somehow you must have got it set so that blackl otus hacks the internet all the time.

Berkut99 · 05-29-2003, 10:58 PM

Nope, I made it so that I have to press the Hack Internet Command Button so that she hacks. She can do just about everything normally, but walk. I removed the Hack Internet Module Tag, and it works fine, but I re-add it, and it doesn't. I'm really hangin' on a limb here as to what's wrong.
