Problem with Ties buildable in GC.
 
As the titles says, I've got a problem with Tie Fighters and Bombers in the GC ships tab. I've got them set as buildable, thats no problem.. But they show up twice in the ships tab, taking valuable space. I'm just wondering if anyone would know why this is happening, and it how it can be fixed. Thanks.

Do you want me to take a wild guess at the error or can you post the code so i can take a look?

If you can spot it in the Tie Fighters code, then i can just fix it in the Bombers code also. Thanks.

I'm not even sure why you can build it... <Required_Star_Base_Level>8</Required_Star_Base_Level>

You don't have lvl 8 star bases... you shouldn't be able to build it...

Re: Problem with Ties buildable in GC.
 
Thats just in the fighters.xml. It was a test. I set it to 8 to see if having both the squadrons.xml Ties buildable, and the spaceunitsfighters.xml Ties buildable had created the double ship problem. Needless to say it didnt fix the problem.

Re: Problem with Ties buildable in GC.
 
K, Are you sure you dont have duplicated entries in your squadrons.xml file - this is the file which allows which ships are buildable. At least one of the TIE entries needs to be set to 'No' for not buildable.

Re: Problem with Ties buildable in GC.
 
Probably something to do with this:
Code:
<Squadron Name="TIE_Fighter_Squadron_E3">
  <Variant_Of_Existing_Type>TIE_Fighter_Squadron</Variant_Of_Existing_Type>
  <Squadron_Units>TIE_Fighter_E3, TIE_Fighter_E3, TIE_Fighter_E3,TIE_Fighter_E3</Squadron_Units>
  <Squadron_Units>TIE_Fighter_E3, TIE_Fighter_E3, TIE_Fighter_E3</Squadron_Units>
 </Squadron>

 <Squadron Name="TIE_Bomber_Squadron_E3">
  <Variant_Of_Existing_Type>TIE_Bomber_Squadron</Variant_Of_Existing_Type>
  <Squadron_Units>TIE_Bomber_E3, TIE_Bomber_E3</Squadron_Units>
  <Squadron_Units>TIE_Bomber_E3, TIE_Bomber_E3</Squadron_Units>
 </Squadron>
Add the <Build_Tab_Space_Units>No</Build_Tab_Space_Units> line to both of those entries, it SHOULD solve the problem.
