Subject: Re: Data File help
If I am reading this right, you want B to select 4 if A selects 3
You can do this with the local attribute mirr in the child
mirr
ption
The specified option, given by its unique id, must always maintain
the same selection state (selected or not) for this unit as is
currently the state in the parent regiment. This attribute is only
applicable if there is a parent unit that can be mirrored.

Graham T.

I could not figure out how to do the race part. However, using the code you gave as an external attribute, ABC will not let you save it. I think that "xcmp:" is a local attribute only.

Subject: Re: Changing a units Comp
May apologoes, it is a local attribute.
The ! should have worked, as you would save use it
xcmp:Supp-race=!(two letters of normal race) Ie: the race designation
there would be the race that it is defined in.
As a matter of fact, if you have ever looked at the Warhammer 40k
files, that is exactly how the Harlequins are done. They also define
a type based on the same rule (!ha) and use that type to limit
composition.
Anyhow, glad I could be of a little assistance.

Subject: Re: Re: Changing a units Comp
If usually the exclamation mark is used to denote
not in most programming languages. Army builder
has a fairly distinct base in C, does it not?
as in 'a != b' would be the value of a not equal
the value of b. i still haven't dinked around
with AB that much on that level yet though, so i
could be wrong.

Subject: "over:" attribute
Me again. I've got a Combat Platoon (parent unit) that has to be four tanks (four separate child units) strong. The user can chose between 3 different tanks and tank X is add to make the Combat Platoon four strong. The first 3 tanks are added via an option with "list:" and are selected via "dflt:" This makes the user pick his first 3 tanks. Tank X is added via "Auto". Now, the user can chose to add tank Y. Tank Y is added via "Cost" and the option that adds tank Y has "over:" which de-selects the last tank picked via the "list:" from above. What I now need is for the 3rd tank (actually, the list of tanks to choose form) to be automatically selected again so the user can re-chose his 3rd tank if he un-selects the option for tank Y. I've got every thing working but can't make AB reapply the "dflt:" that adds the 3rd tank.
Thanks,
Keith

May apologoes, it is a local attribute.
The ! should have worked, as you would save use it
xcmp:Supp-race=!(two letters of normal race) Ie: the race designation
there would be the race that it is defined in.
As a matter of fact, if you have ever looked at the Warhammer 40k
files, that is exactly how the Harlequins are done. They also define
a type based on the same rule (!ha) and use that type to limit
composition.
Anyhow, glad I could be of a little assistance.
Cheers,
Graham T.

race it belongs to. It does not even show up in the allied race.
Any ideas? I do appreciate the help!

If usually the exclamation mark is used to denote
not in most programming languages. Army builder
has a fairly distinct base in C, does it not?
as in 'a != b' would be the value of a not equal
the value of b. i still haven't dinked around
with AB that much on that level yet though, so i
could be wrong.

Normally, I think it's !race=xx, rather than race=!xx (that's mixed me
up a few times)

Subject: "over:" attribute
Me again. I've got a Combat Platoon (parent unit) that has to be four tanks (four separate child units) strong. The user can chose between 3 different tanks and tank X is add to make the Combat Platoon four strong. The first 3 tanks are added via an option with "list:" and are selected via "dflt:" This makes the user pick his first 3 tanks. Tank X is added via "Auto". Now, the user can chose to add tank Y. Tank Y is added via "Cost" and the option that adds tank Y has "over:" which de-selects the last tank picked via the "list:" from above. What I now need is for the 3rd tank (actually, the list of tanks to choose form) to be automatically selected again so the user can re-chose his 3rd tank if he un-selects the option for tank Y. I've got every thing working but can't make AB reapply the "dflt:" that adds the 3rd tank.
Thanks,
Keith
