[Solved] My leader cannot recruit

[TarwWik]

Hi everyone

First of all, as a French guy, I apologise for my english ^^'
I don't know where I should post my message, sorry if it's the wrong place.

It's the first time I'm developing a campaign, and there is one problem I don't know how to solve. I can't recruit with my human leader. Ctrl+R and right-click+Recruit do nothing at all, don't even display an error message.
After reading some other topics, I changed "controller=human" to "controller=ai". I have now an error message that I don't really understand. It says : "Unit-type "null" doesn't exist". But this is what my code looks like :

Code: Select all

[side]
    side=1
    x,y=4,18
    controller=human
    type=Peasant
    id=azerty
    team_name=azerty
    user_team_name="Azerty"
    save_id=Player
    canrecruit=yes
    recruit="Peasant,Woodsman"
    controller=ai
    fog=no
    shroud=no
    [/side]

I've tried to change what is after recruit= but it's all the same.

Thank you for your help.

This means that your recruit list includes unit with type that is not known.

I've just verified. Both Peasant and Woodsman are right. And when I tried to change the units on the recruit list, I got the same error.

Note that you have controller two times in the [side] tag. First is human, second is ai.

Savefile would be useful.

Controller means who commands the given side. Side 1 is typically the player, so it should be controller=human. You currently have defined the controller twice - this is causing the error. Delete controller= ai from the code, and it should work.
A note: it can lead to recall problems if save_id is not the same as id. If you' re not sure what save_id means, omit it, you don't need it.

I did just that. Now it works. I don't really know why, but thank you anyway
