uadd and multiple model units

[shawn at electricstitch.c]

Rob,

I used the uadd:UnitBeta@1 for item Foo.

UnitBeta has a size of 1:2, but because of uadd I must set the unit size, I
can't make it adjustable.

What am I doing wrong. Is their something else I can put with uadd? I tried
uadd:UnitBeta@1:2 and few others, but it appears uadd. It appears I can only
have a specific, unadjustable amount of models in UnitBeta.

Is their a better way to do this?

ItemFoo allows UnitAlpha to take 1-2 UnitBeta's.

It looks like I might have to go back to my original plan of putting an
OptionUnitBeta on UnitAlpha that gives validation message if ItemFoo isn't
used. (using lcmp).

I had this working, I just really liked the way uadd worked and hoped I
could do something.

Thanks for your help,
-Shawn

The "uadd" attribute attaches a child unit of a fixed size. If you need a
variable size, then you can't use "uadd". Instead, use the method I
suggested in my previous response (where I also suggested "uadd"). This is
quite easy to do WITHOUT needing to resort to using stat comparisons and
without forcing the user to add the child unit. You can do it all
automatically with an auto-based option and "utyp". If you have questions
after reading my earlier post, let me know.

Thanks, Rob
