how to make a watch tower?

Hello all,
I had noticed that in some tuning mods there are two Watch towers, one with just a tower, the other with the tower and a circle of sandbags.

I had found the original Watch tower (just the tower one) but when I clone it, and renamed it to say aef_watchtower, I did add in a Construction_ext. All it does for me, when i add it to a squads engineer_ext is make a ghost building that will not go away or allow itself to be built by the squad I have added it to.

Can someone look over my code to see what might be wrong with it? I feel as if I'm missing something and I can't quite put my finger on it.

the new tower code as I have it...


thanks for any help you folks can help me with.

I noticed that you miss the 'cost_ext' which contains the buildtime.

Other suggestins which might improve your tower:
- In 'entity_blueprint_ext' set 'always_revealed_in_fow' to false
- In 'health_ext' set 'can_repair' to true

I hope this helps :)
