Oh no Im not modding two at the same time. That first one is for chat I believe. Not sure why but when you download the nomads file from faf it has both of those. I don't know if deleting it would have any negative effects. I'll remove it and see what it does.

I didn't realize faf was loading my mods from my steam game data folder. I'll have to remove those too. Thanks for pointing that out.

sorry without debugging i cant help here

At least i can say the error is in line 251 but the original file only has 147 Lines.

Code:: medata\lua.nx2\lua\ui\game\layouts\unitview_mini.lua(251): attempt to call method `Destroy' (a nil value)

In this case the error should be inside the hook file around line 104

Code:: /nomadhook/lua/ui/game/layouts/unitview_mini.lua

There are some other issues inside the log:

These are all mods and some of them are hooking game files. Please delete those before you start debug something.

Okay, I've run into a problem that I can't seem to fix. I'm trying to line up the unitview_mini.lua files for the nomads. After doing some tweaking I find that one of the destroy methods is returning a nil value. I believe it has to do with the ninepatch in the faf version file as this is basically going over that. Not sure though. Here is my code.

Code:: do function SetLayout() local controls = import('/lua/ui/game/unitview.lua').controls controls.bg:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/build-over-back_bmp.dds')) LayoutHelpers.AtLeftIn(controls.bg, controls.parent) LayoutHelpers.AtBottomIn(controls.bg, controls.parent) controls.bracket:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/bracket-unit_bmp.dds')) LayoutHelpers.AtLeftTopIn(controls.bracket, controls.bg, -18, -2) if controls.bracketMid then controls.bracketMid:Destroy() controls.bracketMid = false end if controls.bracketMax then controls.bracketMax:Destroy() controls.bracketMax = false end LayoutHelpers.AtLeftTopIn(controls.name, controls.bg, 16, 14) LayoutHelpers.AtRightIn(controls.name, controls.bg, 16) controls.name:SetClipToWidth(true) controls.name:SetDropShadow(true) LayoutHelpers.AtLeftTopIn(controls.icon, controls.bg, 12, 34) controls.icon.Height:Set(48) controls.icon.Width:Set(48) LayoutHelpers.AtLeftTopIn(controls.stratIcon, controls.icon) LayoutHelpers.Below(controls.vetIcons[1], controls.icon, 5) LayoutHelpers.AtLeftIn(controls.vetIcons[1], controls.icon, -5) for index = 2, 5 do local i = index LayoutHelpers.RightOf(controls.vetIcons[i], controls.vetIcons[i-1], -3) end LayoutHelpers.AtLeftTopIn(controls.healthBar, controls.bg, 66, 35) controls.healthBar.Width:Set(188) controls.healthBar.Height:Set(16) controls.healthBar:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/healthbar_bg.dds')) controls.healthBar._bar:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/healthbar_green.dds')) LayoutHelpers.AtBottomIn(controls.shieldBar, controls.healthBar) LayoutHelpers.AtLeftIn(controls.shieldBar, controls.healthBar) controls.shieldBar.Width:Set(188) controls.shieldBar.Height:Set(2) controls.shieldBar:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/healthbar_bg.dds')) controls.shieldBar._bar:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/shieldbar.dds')) LayoutHelpers.Below(controls.fuelBar, controls.shieldBar) controls.fuelBar.Width:Set(188) controls.fuelBar.Height:Set(2) controls.fuelBar:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/healthbar_bg.dds')) controls.fuelBar._bar:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/fuelbar.dds')) LayoutHelpers.AtCenterIn(controls.health, controls.healthBar) controls.health:SetDropShadow(true) LayoutHelpers.Below(controls.capacitorBar, controls.fuelBar) controls.capacitorBar.Width:Set(188) controls.capacitorBar.Height:Set(2) controls.capacitorBar:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/healthbar_bg.dds')) controls.capacitorBar._bar:SetTexture(UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit-build-over-panel/capacitorbar.dds')) LayoutHelpers.AtCenterIn(controls.health, controls.healthBar) local iconPositions = { [1] = {Left = 70, Top = 60}, [2] = {Left = 70, Top = 80}, [3] = {Left = 190, Top = 60}, [4] = {Left = 130, Top = 60}, [5] = {Left = 130, Top = 80}, [6] = {Left = 130, Top = 80}, [7] = {Left = 190, Top = 80}, [8] = {Left = 130, Top = 80} # position capacitor icon at shield position } local iconTextures = { UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit_view_icons/mass.dds'), UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit_view_icons/energy.dds'), UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit_view_icons/kills.dds'), UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit_view_icons/kills.dds'), UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit_view_icons/missiles.dds'), UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit_view_icons/shield.dds'), UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit_view_icons/fuel.dds'), UIUtil.UIFile('/game/unit_view_icons/capacitor.dds'), } for index = 1, 7 do local i = index if iconPositions[i] then LayoutHelpers.AtLeftTopIn(controls.statGroups[i].icon, controls.bg, iconPositions[i].Left, iconPositions[i].Top) else LayoutHelpers.Below(controls.statGroups[i].icon, controls.statGroups[i-1].icon, 5) end controls.statGroups[i].icon:SetTexture(iconTextures[i]) LayoutHelpers.RightOf(controls.statGroups[i].value, controls.statGroups[i].icon, 5) LayoutHelpers.AtVerticalCenterIn(controls.statGroups[i].value, controls.statGroups[i].icon) controls.statGroups[i].value:SetDropShadow(true) end LayoutHelpers.AtLeftTopIn(controls.actionIcon, controls.bg, 261, 34) controls.actionIcon.Height:Set(48) controls.actionIcon.Width:Set(48) LayoutHelpers.Below(controls.actionText, controls.actionIcon) LayoutHelpers.AtHorizontalCenterIn(controls.actionText, controls.actionIcon) controls.abilities.Left:Set(function() return controls.bg.Right() + 19 end) controls.abilities.Bottom:Set(function() return controls.bg.Bottom() -

Oh yes, this is the most work at first.
After all scripts are running, its time to check the units.

Thanks a lot! This looks really useful. So far I seem to be see mostly issues where the scripts aren't hooking correctly. I'm trying to line them up with faf files they hook into to straighten them out.

Maybe this can help you a bit. Its my personal unit debugger and AI script builder:

http://faforever.uveso.de/UvesoDebuggerV4.2.zip

After installing the mod, the mainscript can be found in:
C:\Users\YOURNAME\Documents\My Games\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\Mods\Uveso Debugger\debug\UnitDebug.lua

Functions:

Code:: - Shift-H = Print KeyBindings -- Print Debugger keyBindings to the LOG Window - Shift-Q = ModUnitCheck -- Basic check for units with icons found in Mod folders - Shift-W = ValidateCategories -- Check Categories - Shift-E = ValidateUnitIcons -- Check UnitIcons - Shift-R = Validate Strategic Icons -- Check Strategic Icons - Shift-T = CheckDisplayAbilities -- Check Display Abilities - Shift-Z = Check Selection Size -- Check General selection size, size and skirt - Shift-U = Check Unit Enhancements -- Check Enhancements - Shift-A = CkeckWeaponAnimation -- Check Filepath of Weapons Animation - Shift-S = ModWeaponProjIDCheck -- Check Filepath of Weapons ProjectileID - Shift-D = ModDisplayMeshCheck -- Check LOD's and meshes from units - Shift-F = ModUnitSoundCheck -- Plays all Sounds inside unit Blueprint Audio. - Shift-G = ModWeaponSoundCheck -- Plays all Weaponsounds inside unit Blueprint Weapon. - Shift-Y = BuildAiScripts -- Build AI Scripts from mod units for the customunit folder - Shift-X = GetUnitList -- Print an array with all Units from a specified Mod. Only used for icon Support Mod script. - Shift-C = Game File Check -- Checks number and size of gamefiles (alpha state) - Shift-V = Execute function Check() -- Execute function UnitDebug.lua.check() - Shift-B = CheckBlacklistedUnits -- Checks blacklisted units - Shift-N = Check localisation -- Checks localisation (alpha state, only german)

The mod is higly alpha state, but maybe you will find it useful.

Good news everyone! I've gotten the nomads to load into a game. Unfortunately this was the easy part, but its a step in the right direction.

Yes, starting the game, and watch the logwindow.

The first Errorwarning is the only thing you shoud care. All lines behind can be related to the first error.

So always fix the first error in log, and see how it works then.

Well I ment the offline faf lobby not in the faf app. Right now when I try to play it the skirmish lobby just hangs. This would be the only way to check if it works wouldn't it?
