How to use the Assembly kit (Starpos is now up!)

[Hizaku]

Okay never-mind the name not showing up part I finally got it to work, but I was still wondering if anyone could help me make my unit only usable by the Date Clan. Ty in advance~

You need to change cdir_unit_qualities to Date and same with units_to_exclusive_factions_permissions. Then you need to go into groupings_military and add in date so that that you can choose that for your unit in units_to_groupings_military positions. That last part is easier in PFM because you can just type it in.

Edit: nevermind

After some trials and tribulations, I may have made actual progress. Thank you.

Im not sure if they are Date only but the names dissapeared again, Also would it effect anything if I added two new units to one mod. Sorry for being a noob this is the first time ive attempted to create my own mod.

You need to extract and edit the units.loc file for your unit names. And no, unless you edit something that another unit uses, like a projectile. You can add as many as you want.

So like extract it with PFM? Oh and also I got the Units so only the date can use them, Thanks ^^

No extract it with BOB. It should be under working_data/text. At the same time also extract the units table. Otherwise you get an error.

I got the Assembly kit to finally work recently and created a unit but how do get it to keep its custom color? I've changed its color and I unchecked the "use faction colors" but it still keeps the faction color.

Okay, this may be a stupid question, but I looked at the first entry of this tutorial and clicked the Show spoiler and there is nothing in the spoiler window. Any idea what is occurring there?

As far as I know you need to make new textures in the colours you want in order for the unit to have that...

I didn't notice that, good that you told me! Apperantly I can't make them "visible", I believe it might have something to do with the recent upgrade of this site. I will try some more times and if I fail I will upload them as links.

@ Ygge, If you could do that, it would be great. I have the Assembly Kit downloaded and have used it for reference, but not used it for modding. I have modded extensively with the community modding tools, but I am still unsure of how to use the CA official tools. Look forward to you fixing that. Thanks!!!

[Ygge]

Yes, I have provided the links in op now.

Hi, first, thanks for giving us an opportunity to know better how to use Tweak. And second, i have a question: in the unit editor, for example, i click heads and there appears a laaaaaarge list of head parts. Then, you see that the problem is that each part is repeated 3 times. And i dont know where are those files.

Thanks

Ygge, I need your help, I fallowed all instructions from parts 1-5, but now when I use BOB and click start, the database export is orange and they all errors say, "There is no pack file to add a file to."

Where did you put your mod tools?
