Unit portrait not showing? [Solved]
I made a simple unit (it's not my first) which works as expected, except in dialogues I don't get the picture set under
I tried using another portrait picture, taken from another unit (which works normally), but no portrait image will show up in the new unit, no matter what I do. I'm going insane...
Here is what the unit .cfg looks like (I cut out the attack stuff to make it shorter):
The path to the portrait picture is correct (copy/pasted from another unit sheet), and as I said, even if I copy the whole "image=some.png" line from another unit, I still won't get anything else in dialogue than the unit sprite. I tried changing the unit sprite, so I'm sure the dialogue uses the unit sprite and not something else.
What is going on? I have already created 12 other hero units, and they all worked without a problem...
