Can you set the stat line to display correctly in the available units then in the prelink script set them to preset value (-1??), in the stat in the def set the value of -1 to display blank - that may achieve the effect as an interim measure?

Well, I created a method to work, but it involved scripting in the stats for the def file to convert a predefined value from that value to display a @text value of "". This works, but is less than ideal since it means extra script processing for every stat display.

Yeah, that's unfortunately the only way to achieve the effect you want at the moment.

Another (slightly better) way of doing it would be having a procedure to simply set all the stats for a unit to 0, and then have the stats change that to "". That way you can re-use the procedure to reset the stats for any team you want.
