I think it might have to do with the acklays. Acklays are always glitchy. I'm gonna try using Jango fett just to test it.

Then check yourself by switching the local team from one of acklays to one of one of your units that you know go ingame. If that also doesn't work, then you might have an error in ZE; just doublecheck. If it's not that, then there's probably some stipulation about the hero assault mode not having locals.

........... Yup.


It was the acklays. Well, thanks peeps.

Sorry to bump, but I too, am having local-related problems.

I have been trying to add Tuskens. Everything is dandy ingame, except that they don't spawn.
I did place an invisible cp (local_cp) and spawn path (local_spawn)

Did you assign the CP to team 3?

Yes, it's assigned to Team 3. Everything appears to be in order. I just did it like a normal cp without capture regions except using 'local_cp' and 'local_spawn' etc

what would i put if i wanted acklays instead of jawas? would it be something like "all_inf_acklays"?

Look at the odf for acklays in the geo side, so no it wouldn't be that, but rather geo_inf_acklay.

ok thanks

Wow, sorry to bump this old thread, but I have problem. This occured after I added the locals in. You probably won't beleave me. But here I go...... I ran the map, got to the spawning screen only to find NO CPS! Like, all the cps were GONE, POOF! Not even the AI could spawn. What in the world is going on here!?

maybe you should have foloowed the tutorial more exactly....
i suppose you didnt add the new commandopst to the lua

Contrary to popular belief, CPs work fine WITHOUT being added to the lua script. Putting them in the script ONLY adds them to the objective, meaning that they are now counted toward bleed rates, ai goals, and winning. There are no script changes required for adding a CP to a map.

So if you comment out (put -- in front of the lines) the locals related lines you added in, do the CPs show up again? Did you review your error log? If you don't know how to do that, check The FAQ / Everything You Need... sticky topic to learn how.

Edit for Tourny's Post: Well, at least I've never heard of that happening before. In theory, it shouldn't happen.

Hey, Zerted, I know what you're talking about with the ONLY ADDS TO THE OBJECTIVE thing, but sometimes the game doesn't like it when there is a discrepency between the two CP sections and ZE. Then it will just kill all the CPs and sulk until the modder in question learns how to count... (that last part is a joke, btw, lol)

is there a way to add locals NOT useing zero editor?(just on stock maps)

Sure, all the important stuff is script work anyway. You'll either want to reassign a CP to them or just have them spawn from one team's CP's spawn points, though.

Ok thx mav i will look at some luas that have them.

Now before you start saying don't bump topics FAQ topics are allowed to be bumped!

I have 3 custom local units I am adding for my map UW1, I followed the steps, however, no droids are spawning in the game.
