These two lines here may cause an issue as well...

#newmonster 2001
--Steals stats and sprite from the original draconian chief.

Any commenting should be done outside of the #newmonster (or #selectmonster) and #end commands.

As far as cleaning your scripts up. They look fine to me, they just don't look like mine lol.

I see something else that can be potentially buggy as well. You have a #selectnation at the top of your mod, you need to kill that, you have another #selectnation at the bottom of your mod so you will not need to redo it.

lol i didnt have any of the comments or anything like that when i originally made the mod, like i said i used the vaetti 1 as a template, but only after mine didnt work, so the draconian thing is all crap lol, and it still worked with the comments but using different units n stuff (the original vaetti mod), so i dont think its that but then im obviously ammature at this mod stuff so ill try fixing all 3 of those things u told me about then come back and say if it worked

While not commenting inside the script will make it cleaner, the comments should not cause problems with the mod.

It caused issues with the NI mod for some reason, that is why I suggested him taking them out.

Are you sure it was the comments that caused the issue? I got alot of comments in the unit scripts and I never had any problems caused by them. Maybe I just got lucky.

Yup, we deleted the comments and it actually would load the mod. That was not the only issue with the mod but just deleting the comments brought it to a point where you could actually load the mod.

sorry 4 double post, but I can load the mod no problem, I had problems loading it way back but I fixed those and even the original file I attached should still be able to load?

and other people use comments all the time, including the example mod that I got with the game so I dont think its the comments that are bugging it out...

I think its something to do with the tga's and paths
