also my team spawns 2 commanders

any ideas?

BA750 includes a new gadget for spawning initial commanders. game_initial_spawn.lua by Niobium. Chickens also includes the old spawn gadget ending up in spawning two commanders.
You will probably want to modify chickens to also use Nio's new spawn gadget. Just my guess though...

Keep up the job with trying to fix CD for BA7.50, I've missed it but been to lazy to do anything myself...

Can someone tell me if ba/ba chickens is using a modified unitdefs parsing lua? because that could explain why he is getting no errors with the chickens unit defs. IIRC chickens should not have any gamedata/unitdefs*.lua

There is no such file inside bachickens215ba720.sdz
In BA720.sdz (dependency of bachickens215) there is gamedata/unitdefs_post.lua.

thanks bad_soldier that worked it fixed player resources too :]

i have fixed the bad units and everything seems to be working, the only thing is the chicken commander self destroying at the start if we can fix that think it will be ready for testing

[dcore221]

any suggestions im totally stuck

[dcore221]

the error has been fixed with some help, it is now possible to play but i get this error mid-game

when you want to destroy a unit when an other unit was destroyed, i think you have to set a flag, and actually delete it the next time update is called (or something like that).

Didn't realise the changes to BA would make updating this a pain in the ass however I have spent this afternoon fixing it (plus a few small changes), see OP for download link.

Updated with a load of tweaks and changes
http://springfiles.com/spring/games/ba- ... -defense-1

Changelog 2.25 (BA750)
- Bit more variation in chicken size / colour
- A few new chicken types!
- Rebalanced most waves with various tweaks to squads/types
- Queen is larger, more effective against Air (2.20 failed to include BA's new air classes on her weapons)
- Queen behaviour & squad spawning altered
- Possibly more changes I forgot (also added an easter egg..!)
