Grant multiple prerequisites?

[thebestwes]

Is it possible to make a building provide multiple prerequisites? Specifically I'm trying to make it so that the construction yard grants a prerequisite to the GDI race and another to the Nod race, thereby allowing me to use the same HQ building to give different airstrikes to the two races. Is this possible, and if not is there a better way to do it?

You can use

Code: Select all

ProvidesPrerequisite@one:
    Prerequisite: one
ProvidesPrerequisite@two:
    Prerequisite: two
...

You can use the "Race: nod/gdi" property on ProvidesPrerequisite (see https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/wiki/T ... erequisite).

Thanks! I did that and it works perfectly for the GDI. The airstrike ability just doesn't show up for Nod, though.

Here's what I'm working with:

Code: Select all

I took out the Race attribute, and it still only gives me the GDI airstrike ability. Is it just that you can't have a structure give more than one type of airstrike?

What does --check-yaml say about it?
