yes, i did change it so that it should work... but one question: why do you say you need to have factionbuilding.ini yet its never edited?

EDIT: After using the world editor as a debugger and getting rid of tons of bugs (mostly my fault ) i've gotten to the point where i can actually play the game, but i cant build dozers... i've made it have no science prerequisites, made SCIENCE_DozerDrop intrinsic (in playertemplate.ini) and some other stuff but i still cant build it! any thoughts? >.<

any ideas?

The problem is not with any of the Dozer code, it's with your side. Look for misspellings, or check to see if you're refering to something in another file that doesn't exist. :-)

I just realized that, fixed now. :lol: As for your problems, try using the science, I know it works with it.

try using the science? how???
ok, ive checked literally everything that could be wrong and it still wont work. all it does is give me the button grayed out, like i require something-or-other to build a dozer but i dont require anything...

Check for these tags:

SpecialPower.ini: (in the superweapon)

RequiredScience = SCIENCE_DozerDrop


and from Science.ini:

Science SCIENCE_DozerDrop
PrerequisiteSciences = None
SciencePurchasePointCost = 0 ; note that this means "not purchasable", NOT "free"!
IsGrantable = Yes
DisplayName = SCIENCE:TempName
Description = SCIENCE:TempDescription
End

yep, thats what i have, yet i still cant build dozers... >.<

[Slye_Fox]

Can I post the code, and you tell me whats wrong with it?
I've look through it and there dosen't seem to be anything wroung with it.

[EvilViking]

I'd be glad to try to help.

grr... this is pissing me off... so heres what i have (tell me whats wrong please!!! )

PutInContainer = LargeParachute ; Because the unit needs a large parachute, after all, it?s a bulldozer! 
Payload = AmericaVehicleDozer 1 ; What unit is being dropped off 
DeliveryDistance = -45 
DeliveryDecalRadius = 100 
;This is what you normally see for a superweapon. I?m trying to get it to go away, as it paints a red circle around the building that the unit is being built from:

;OpacityMax = 50% 
;OpacityThrobTime = 500 
;Color = R:255 G:0 B:0 A:255 
;OnlyVisibleToOwningPlayer = Yes 
End 
End

there... thats everything... so why doesnt it work? any clues?
