    Default Error message after adding a number of units

    While adding units I keep getting this error after adding a certain amount of new units (around 12), have I hit a hard-coded limit?


    Tried but didn't work:
    Removing/commenting out a unit from the same faction, that I won't use later.
    Setting the ownership to a different faction.
    Removing then re-entering all the code.

    I am just adding them to the julii faction, no modfolder, at the top of the document. I run Rome through the BI exe. This error always shows the first unit in EDU.

    Could you post the hla orc kinsmer warrior EDU entry here?

    Code:
    type             hla orc kinsmer warrior
    dictionary       hla_orc_kinsmer_warrior      ;
    category         infantry
    class            light
    voice_type       Heavy_1
    soldier          hla_orc_kinsmer_warrior, 16, 0, 1
    officer          hla_orc_kinsmer_warrior
    attributes       sea_faring, hide_improved_forest
    formation        1, 2, 2, 3, 4, square
    stat_health      1, 0
    stat_pri         9, 4, no, 0, 0, melee, simple, piercing, sword, 25 ,1
    stat_pri_attr    no
    stat_sec         0, 0, no, 0, 0, no, no, no, none, 25 ,1
    stat_sec_attr    no
    stat_pri_armour  5, 2, 0, metal
    stat_sec_armour  0, 1, flesh
    stat_heat        1
    stat_ground      2, 1, 0, -1
    stat_mental      8, normal, trained
    stat_charge_dist 30
    stat_fire_delay  0
    stat_food        60, 300
    stat_cost        1, 430, 140, 50, 70, 430
    ownership        greek
    The code is just copied and pasted from others, no changes apart from the names are made. I'm not doing unit stats yet just getting unit models into the game. I changed the faction from julii to greek to see if I had too many for one faction but same error message...

    Thanks for replying so quickly Aradan.

    It's one of those strange errors that doesn't really show you what the error is, I think.
    Originally the error showed another unit, that was the first in the EDU. If I change another unit to be the first one in EDU then it is reported as causing the error.

    You have the officer using the same DMB entry as the unit. Try removing the officer entry and see what happens.

    All the units I have added before have themselves as officers. I will try this however. Thanks for replying.

    Florin80, you are my god-like hero.
    It would appear there is a limited number of model slots for officers. Must have missed that one.
    Did you already know this or are you a registered RTW psychic?
    It's lucky for me I keep an open mind about suggestions that seem, by my (flawed, evidently) reasoning, to be unnecessary to test. Valuable lesson learned!
