Tau Empire Fix

I have been playing the Tau Empire for a while and I have also been keeping up with the updates for the army builder too. The one thing I have found that is a mistake is that the person who did the updat, which is good, didn't fix some of the problems that was in the Tau army list. One thing is that the Hammerheads have a Targeting array buildt in the vechical but the new update remover it altogethere. Also the limit size of the firewarriors is not limited to 12. 12 is the limit if they are in a devilfish and 20 if not in the devilfish. That is just a few things that I have noticed with the Tau Empire. If I knew how to edit the files myself, I would fix it and offer it to others so they don't have to explaine there armies.
 
Which language and version of the WH40K files are you using?
The current English version (1.11a updated with both patches) does not have any issues with the hammerhead.

Also, I think you may need to re-read your codex; Fire Warrior teams are limited to a maximum of 12 Fire Warriors* on page 36 of the English language edition of the Tau Empire codex, which is the starting reference point for all other translations, as well as the ab40k team's files.

*It is possible to add an extra two gun drones tot he team, but that's still nowhere near twenty models overall.
 
I do have the current english version and the current patch. Their is an issue because the program says it has a score of 3 for the BS and doesn't have the Target Array, but in the Codex the BS is 3/4 and the Target Array is free and built within the vechical. For the Fire Warriors the number 12 is the max when they are in a mounted, but the have a 20 for a squad when they are not mounted. I also noticed if you have 3 sqauds of Fire Warriors in the devilfish, the 3rd devilfish doesn't have any drones on the vechical.
 
OK, I don't know what the problem is with the hammerhead; as you can see it clearly has a BS of 3/4 in the list and has a targeting array (TA) noted on its line in the image below:

If that's not what you see something has definitely gone wrong with your files; I'd try deleting the wh40k folder and re-importing everything.

As for Fire Warriors; again, the error is not with the file. There is only one unit in the codex with a squad size of 20, and it's not Fire Warriors, nor is there anything in the FAQ which would indicate an alteration in squad size.
 
I'm sorry about the size of the squad. I was wrong and I thought it was 20. I will do that because that is not what I'm getting at all.
