I gave all my east german commanders camouflage.

I have no idea why but 4 commanders are showing camouflage when I have the ability set as -1 in the ui display.

They are: Assault support, Mechanized assault, Spearhead, Lightning war.

As soon as I typed them out I realized that means something is up with the Tiger tank.

How would I go about finding what the heck is causing this problem?

It's a new day with a new weapon related problem. Unlike regular CoH2 I'm making the armies very unequal in terms of manpwoer/fuel/etc. In short one army is quantity and one is quality (wonder where I got that idea).

I was wanting to make a HMG function one way when held by germans and another if it is captured by allies (would still be a good unit but not exactly the same). I have a regular mg42 that I cloned that has different stats.

I noticed in ebps for the HMG that I can go to the recrewable extension and under race data I can change the weapon to a diffrent file. Let's say I make a new entry in sbps (cap_hmg) and link that sbps to the race recrew extension.

What all do I need to do to make sure this works so that Axis units picking up the weapon get the mg_42 and Allies units picking it up get the cap_hmg)

1. I need to make a new entry in ebps/ sbps for cap_hmg
2. I need to make a weapon data entry for cap_hmg
3. I need to link the recrew extension for the new weapon to cap_hmg for allies and change the recrew extension for cap_hmg to go back to the mg_42 (for the germans)
4. I need to link the sbps to the new ebps for the cap_hmg (need to re-check the tutorial on that but it should not be a problem).

Is there a step 5-6 that I'm missing?

Changing the per unit scale to 1 is fantastic as now the AI just pumps out units nonstop. I definitely see it getting confused however when the Ostheer made 4 at guns in a row after losing some infantry units; this made little sense because they were definitely winning the vehicle war. Likewise the soviets at one point made 3 maxims in a row when they lost some infantry squads.

If we had the ability to tell the AI not to make more than 2-3 AT guns (unless it was totally desperate) it would really feel robust. I suppose I will have to fiddle with individual unit settings when I get everything more polished.

Thank you... I saw that but I didn't know if you could use that to force a soldier on spawn to have no weapon. I will give it a shot

I want to change a flamethrower weapon upgrade to instead add one soldier who is holding that flamethrower. Is that possible? (this would be for the sturmpioneer squad).

I look at the grenadier veteran squad leader upgrade (which adds 1 soldier and one rifle). It has 2 actions : slot_item_add (which I understand) and UI decorator action - which I assume changes the graphic on the grenadier squad to note it is now a 5 man unit.

I don't see anything about adding an extra soldier.

When I look at the pioneer veteran squad leader upgrade there isn't even an action!
