Buildings not being built

[Death_bringer_2]

I imported unit data from a template map of mine, and now my peasants refuse to build anything. If I try to build a farm, for example, it'll plop but the peasant won't build it. How can I fix this?

I don't quite understand what you mean. Here's what I think I'm reading:

You try to build a farm. The farm is placed, but not built?

 

[supertoinkz]

Many reasons.

-The farm and the peasant have different race.
-The peasant doesn't have repair.

INcomplete Info can receive an incomplete answer, can you post screenshots?

Yes. Here's a screenshot I took: http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/2492/buildk.png


Race's are the same, and the Peasant has repair. Nothing will build.

I see you have 16 total food there.

Does building the incomplete farm actually increase your food count? And also, I noticed another completed farm on the edge of the screen.

Definitely the wrong Repair.

The other farm I put in the editor. Town Hall + Farm = 16 food, so no, the incomplete farm doesn't increase my food count. Also, I've switched the repair abilities out so many times but it still does it.

Can you send me the map to test it?

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Hm. Is it possible that I messed something up by editing the Techtree properties? When I imported the unit data into the map, I changed the techtree properties. I tested building a farm on the map from which I exported the unit data, and it works just fine, so it has to be the map.

Edit: Reset techtree properties, didn't work. Reimported Unit, Abilities and Upgrades data, didn't work.

Edit #2: I placed a melee Peasant and tried to build a farm, and it won't build anything either. I don't think it's the race or repair..

Eh, I haven't played a regular melee map in about 8 years. And when I did, never as Human. Sorry for mix up, just trying to help. Sometimes the simplest things are the answer. Apparently not one that I can see, however.

 

[Death_bringer_2]

No no, no mix up at all lol. Any help is better than no help

Is it possible that the unit data import corrupted the map somehow? I could build *before* the import, and the fact that melee won't build any structures either is...not good.

Edit: I just placed a Peon and tried to build a Burrow, and it works. So it's only for Humans

 

[Vizel]

Sounds like some human data was changed somewhere, then.

So all the other races can build, just not peasants.

Perhaps they finally realized that the selection of a King isn't a democracy, and they're on strike!

 

[Death_bringer_2]

Blah. Lemme go and delete all the custom units and abilities. Figures lol. Off with their heads!

Edit: I imported default object data back into the map, wiping everything custom and buildings can be built again. Figures, it's the import data from my template map. Guess I have to manually add the data unless we figure out what caused it to corrupt like that.

 

[Vizel]

Sounds about right. Wouldn't know myself, I don't mess with unit data too much. Mostly just doodads,

Glad the issue has been found, anyway. Have fun with all the input, test, input, test. I did something similar earlier with triggers.

 

[Death_bringer_2]

I made a copy of the map and tested the import again, and it works flawlessly. Must have been a fluke or something. As long as it works, lol. Thanks for the help, problem's been fixed

 

[Vizel]

Glad to hear it! Nasty fluke, though. Might want to remember the antidote in case it happens again. GL, mate.
