Hi,

I placed a mortar vehicle into the map and it brought 4 troops with it, I deleted the vehicle but the soldiers are still there. I have tried to select to the unit and tried to delete them but no luck.

In game they are still there, it's really annoying me.

If anyone knows any solution to this please let me know thanks!

Screenshot provided to show problem.

I managed to fix this problem shortly after posting this thread. I looked in older forum posts and Googled it and found a fairly simple solution.

For anyone else who has this problem in the future the solution is, In World Builder bring up the console by pressing the (') on your keyboard.

From there type "wb_orphan_nuke_entity", hover over the entity you want to delete and hit enter. This will delete the entity. I had to do it four times.

Shoutout to Srinidhalaya for first posting the solution, saved me a lot of stress haha

Glad it is fixed!

I'll leave this thread open to help anyone else with this problem, but if any admin wants to delete it they can do.

Just adding that the console word might be different depending on your language. Mine is ö

Mine too.

#a little suggestion to the mods: The topic should/could be changed into f.e. "Deleting undeletable objects/entities".

It was quite hard to get here.. ;)

Typing (') did not bring up console, so I dropped a pile of logs on the orphan soldiers.

Use the blueprint list in scenario properties. You can find the entity there and delete it.
