Scar error when building sand bags and tank trap.

Both objects have a workaround to prevent ghosting which involves scar. This consists of two files,
the original: ending on _mp
and a new one: ending on __construction__mp

When the __construction__mp is constructed it will be replaced by the _mp version. This functioncall is located in construction_ext/on_construction_actions/3.scar_function_call. I think if you cloned the entity which ends on __construction__mp while there is no matching file without the __construction__ part this can happen.

So to fix it I think either remove the scar_function_call or create a second file without __construction__ in the name.

The Bren gun is part of the CompleteMotionTree.abp and will work by default.
The PPSh is not, therefor you need to add this line to the .abp of the Osttruppen:

"..\\..\\..\\soviet\\weapons\\smg_ppsh41\\smg_ppsh41",

That is strange, when I try this identical .abp it still works.

Is the folder structure of the .abp correct?
armies\german\soldiers\ostruppen\ostruppen.abp (ostruppen spelled with one t at both places?)

This can be tested by putting an invalid path in the .abp and see if a blue box appears.

In impass_ext, set cant_build, land and light_crush to True

Could you post your .xml file?

Also, did you remove the scar function call or add a second file without __construction__?
