I am using the tabl: command to give names and bonuses to characters
and champions in Warhammer. Works fine except for champions who are
activated as part of a unit. The table advances to the first name.
It is very irritating. Is there something I can do?

I'm not sure I understand the question, but I'll take a guess. Tables
always default to the first option. If you want to have the default option
do nothing, then create an option with the unique id "Nothing" and have the
first table entry be something like "None=Nothing".

Hope this helps,
Rob

No, I have that. I have a blank default. It only goes haywire when there
is a champion which is a unit brought in by an option. Then it
automatically advances to the 2nd option in the table.

The only way that should happen is if the first (default) option is invalid
for the unit for some reason. Is the first option devoid of validity
constraints (e.g. utyp)?

If you believe there is an bug in AB, please send me the complete data
files and detailed instructions on how to reproduce the problem. I will
take a look at it for you.

Thanks, Rob

It is valid because I can click backwards on it and make it go back to my
"none" default.
I am using both utyp and olgl, tho I tested all the combos and still
couldn't get rid of the advancing. Since then I have gotten rid of my
champions instead and don't have a separate output line for them.

I am also using the the glob: command for the tabl: option and limiting its
reference to certain unit types such as "champion" "Hero", etc. via the
olgl: command.

I will send you the paths from my programs tonight. Actually I was hoping
someone else had encountered this and there was something simple I was doing
or not doing.

Complete data files?

Jim K.

I need everything to fully load the files and recreate the problem on my
end. Given that most data files contain distributed references to records
in other files, it's usually very difficult to send just a portion of the
files. However, that's a valid option if you can send me files that
demonstrate the problem fully.

Thanks, Rob
