Did you include in the campaign? Like this?

Code: Select all

[+units]
    {~add-ons/data/[your_add-on_name]/units}
[/units]

I'm not seeing it there...

In the unit's file or in the campaign's file

Wait did you edit someone else's campaign or your own? That goes in the _main.cfg file.

Then create a folder called 'units' (if he doesn't already have one), place the unit in the folder, and add the code I gave you into the _main.cfg.

Sorry for the unclear wording, place it in the #DEFINE CAMPAIGN_[CAMPAIGN_NAME] definition.

No. You can edit your friends campaign directly. You can make an add-on if you want if you don't want to touch the campaign itself.

If I don't make a add on do i cut out the part about [your_add-on_name] in the code I put in.

Thank you so much for this help
