Units of different subfactions do not select with E button

Open Madrageeeeee opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

When receiving / capturing another faction in multiplayer the E button to select multiple units of the same type (i.e. quad cannons / scorpions etc) do not select when using the E button for this.

E.g. you have some demo quads and some glav quads you want to select all quads but then you can by using the E button because it considers it different units.

Requires Thyme intervention. Related to this: vGLA Terrorists do not damage other friendly vGLA Terrorists, but they do damage other friendly Stealth Terrorists and vice versa etc pp.

I expect we need a feature such as

Object GLAInfantryRebel
  SelectAlike = GLAInfantryRebel
  ...
End

Object Demo_GLAInfantryRebel
  SelectAlike = GLAInfantryRebel
  ...
End

Object Chem_GLAInfantryRebel
  SelectAlike = GLAInfantryRebel
  ...
End

However, it poses a problem for units such as GLA Demo units, because their suicide button will not work across different faction variants.
