Hi, everyone-

I've been working on an emplacement made from the Pack Howitzer and the Small (Bofors) Pit. Started with the 17lbr, and everything works great except for the crew: there isn't one.

Currently, I have them set up in crew_ext, using attach_gunner_pack_howitzer and attach_loader_pack_howitzer in the sync_action_name field. The crew is also enabled upon construction.

Is there anything tricky to look for when setting this up? (.abp edit, more actions, etc.)

OR, should I be using team_weapon_ext instead for this model?

Check if you have apply_crew_actions under "construction_ext" > "on_construction_actions". This is where your crew is applyed.

Thanks for the response! I checked there and it looks how it should.

Maybe something else? I noticed that the attach_gunner_pack_howitzer action is actually part of m1_75mm_pack_howitzer_sync, a different model.

The sync_target_name is the key :)
Somehow it is different for many models.

sync_target_name: pack_howitzer_target

Role1:
sync_action_name: attach_loader_pack_howitzer
Role2:
sync_action_name: attach_gunner_pack_howitzer
Role3:
sync_action_name: attach_crew_pack_howitzer

sync_target_name: pack_howitzer_target


That did it! Thank you very much
