    Sorting order within Available Allies Window?

    Is anything responsible for the order within the available allies window? When used within the 40K files, the races are just spit out in a haphazard order which doesn't obey nominal alphabetical sorting. Does there have to be a priority number set or anything else which can allow an order to be...

    Problem with Link starts selected and saved rosters

    If anyone can check out the following thread from our bug tracker forum over at www.ab40k.org: http://www.ab40k.org/tracker.php?p=32&t=3979 Involves a entity which has options which originally start out as selected and need to be deselected if other options are to be taken. The problem seems...

    showing a split cost?

    Is it possible that a split cost be shown on the display, e.g.: Parent unit ----stats ----- 40/80 child unit ----stats------ 40 Where in the above example the parent unit costs 40 points on it's own but the total (including child is 40) is 80. I know that currently it would be done as...

    Tryin to "identify" a unit dragged into another unit

    Question: In the 40K files we started to make use of the drag-and-drop mechanic. The problem that we are facing at the moment is the need of a unit to take on either a tag or stat which can be used to identify that it has been dropped into a specific unit, so then that unit can be modified. At...

    Can Categories change their name?

    Wondering if categories can have their name changed based on tagging? Problem: Have category of Relics, and have several races (factions) that use relics but have different names for them (e.g., Relics of the Wolf, Relics of Saturn's Moon, etc.). Would like to have only one Relics category and...

    Requesting ability to override All Units.

    I would like to know if in a future update/verison the All Units can be overriden and hidden from view? Or if a unit could be made so that it would NOT show in the all Units tab? There are certain units which should nominally be hidden from view or purchase as they are informational only, or a...

    Deselecting or "hiding" option when selected

    Planning on something for an upcoming release and having problems in trying to make something look nice. You have an option, say flamethrower and once that choice is chosen a second option is made available "Mastercraft this weapon" which shows just underneath it (via chained option with...

    Are rulesets inherited on an import update?

    Just wondering something after all the updates that I have made and a slew of users slowly posting with strange things. When I make an export copy of the local files (in this case, AB40K5) do the rulesets that I have had selected (or de-selected) in my local files get turned into a default...

    Important Message for users of AB & 40K files

    Just wanted to get this stated here so that hopefully it will get read. The AB40K files are generally updated on the order of once a month or once every other month, depending on the need to update (new releases, bugfixes, etc). This update will generally be made available using the "Automatic...

    Descending Points Cost?

    I don't see anything within the program that would facilitate this so it might require AB program update - had a request for a descendng points cost. Obviously this would only make sense if the roster limit is set. Any thought of making this an option in this situation?

    Exclusions across a multiple unit squad?

    Currently trying to figure out something on using a stat for exclusion purposes accross a squad which consists of multiple units. For example, we have a squad which can have up to 1 special weapon for every ten models. A stat is used to keep track of this. The problem occurs when a "sergeant"...

    Changing option description text like option name

    Just wondering if the description text of an option can be changed from within a script like its name can (e.g., option[this].name = "This name instead")?

    Request for a modified form of text summary

    Saw this: http://www.yesthetruthhurts.com/2010/03/space-marines-ard-boyz-fast-nslow.html where a text summary list of a Space Marine army (AB40K files) was posted and would like to know if a modified or hybrid textsummary/model list could be developed. For example, this is the text summary of...

    Another problem with latest AB version...

    Just discovered another problem with the 40K datafiles and the latest version AB3.2. A rule which is located in the general5Dat.dat file called gnTpt02 is supposed to be used to validate squads and transports taken by that squad. If the number of models in that squad exceed the transports...

    Concerning "Re-Classifying Units When They Are Allies"

    I have read this section in the docs and exactly what you describe as the rare occurance is what I am trying to simulate. A unit is common to two different races, but each race has this unit in a different group category (one HQ and one Legendary). Another race can ally with either of the above...

    Problem with AB3.2b & 40K files

    Have an interesting item in the 40K files. If you use the Imperial Guard 5E codex, and select the Scout Sentinel Squadron. When added to the roster, add in the maximum number of models to the squad (2 additional), you will notice that one of them will have an option called camo-net added to it...

    AB3.1 limit on tabs shown?

    Just wondering if AB3.1 and prior had a limit on the amount of tabs shown at once. I have noticed, as well as a user that tabs are cut short if the total tabs exceeds 6. The last tab only shows partially, but if selected will expand out to the full text in that tab. Obviously the size of the...

    LW: Effect on Eldar Exarchs and unit duplication

    Have an outstanding issue with the Eldar files. The squad can have up to ten models and nominally can have an Exarch (sergeant type model which is effective). Now this model is added via an option in the squad, however there are two entires one with an an auto nature and the other with a cost...

    Drag 'n' Drop and questions regarding new Space Wolves for 40K files

    Trying to make something work and it doesn't look like the files will cooperate as well as I would like it. Setup: Space Wolves have a unit known as Wolf Guard, veterans who can either form a squad, or be moved and used as leaders for other squads. I would like to useDrag and Drop to simulate...

    Internal AB3.2 Update doesn't like the 40K files

    Just noted this myself and reported by a user. 3.2 doesn't want to download the current iteration of the 40K files [ http://www.datafilecentral.com/a3/AB40Kv5103b.ab ] 3.1 doesn't have the same problem, and downloading from the link above works as well.
