OpenRA

Hm, the only other thing that could be is if you use spaces for indentation. (You have to use tabs.) So double check that. Otherwise I'm out of ideas. :(


I copy pasted the code so no space or tab needed. I think the supply cargo ability isnt allowing it but i dont know how to removed it from ...

Code: Select all

Passenger:
	CargoType: Infantry

It's the default infantry, they can enter APCs.

I'd just remove the lines

DeliversCash:
Payload: 0
PlayerExperience: 0


What does the crash log say?


removed those lines but still crashes:

I tried modding my map to make the Supply Truck transport infantry like the APC instead of give money to allies. I set the cash to 0 but the game crashes. Here's what the change look like:



TRUK:
Inherits: ^Vehicle
Inherits@selection: ^SelectableSupportUnit
Buildable:

Nice, well then happy modding!

I didn't design it. Yaml is a standard data format like json or xml but requires you to use 4 spaces to indent. The OpenRA devs then allowed to use tab's instead of spaces, too.

Ok I'm just disappointed the OpenRa devs picked this finicky (yaml ...

Wow what a terrible design, never seen this in other games I modded.

I have already noticed, you are not the most polite guy.


Hold up, I'm not saying that to you unless you're the designer of the coding. I just gave a simple criticism.


Thanks for the help, I finally got my 3tnk.shp to ...

^^ You are making like every mistake possible... ^^

1st mistake:The editor you are using is replacing tabs with spaces automatically.
2nd mistake: The editor insers 2 spaces, not 4.

In OpenRA you can use either, indentation with tabs OR indentation wih 4 spaces. You did neither ^^
Using tabs is ...

V2RL:

also shame on me its actually V2RL!

Doesn't work, can't start the game.

Hey,

finally found some time to look at your map.
however I noticed that you copied the ENTIRE file for vehicles.yaml, infantry.yaml etc...
Fist off, you don't need to do that. For example it is enough for changing V2 health to add these lines:
V2:
Health:
HP: 5656789



Thanks I checked ...

Can you please post a link to your defect map on resource center or upload a .oramap zip of your map here pls so we have some context to help you?

Also, which version of OpenRA did you use last time your mod worked?

I recently updated a few of my older maps, and it can be non-trivial to get it ...

At second, upload your map to https://resource.openra.net

Do you know how to replace SHP in my map mod?

You can just copy the map folder into the release-20200503 folder in the maps/ra/ directory. If your map has custom rules, you might need to update those rules by either packing the map as oramap and using the resource center to update it, or by using the "--update-map" command of the utility that ...

My map is not in ORAMAP form or INI, its in a folder in this path AppData\Roaming\OpenRA\maps\ra\release-20200202\crossfiremod
it has .yaml files

I came back after months and saw that the menus have changed. I no longer have access to my custom modded map when I host a game. Wtf happened?! whats this downgrade?!

it doesnt work tho and it is in ts.
