Move the 'veterancy_action' from sbps to ebps and use a 'change_target_action' with 'change_target_type' is 'squad'. The ebps action will not be runned again upon recrewing.
Or put the 'veterancy_action' in a requirement_action and add an upgrade to the entity (set 'apply_to_entities_in_squad' to 'true'). Then check in the requirement to not have that entity_upgrade so it will only run once.
Disabling disembark is also do-able.
Clone abilities\aef\timed_ability\vehicle_decrew_generic_mp and add the requirement 'not' and in there 'required_unit_type' with 'unit_type' is 'tiger_ace'. There are 3 other decrew abilities, you have to edit them all:
abilities\aef\timed_ability\vehicle_decrew_m20_crew_mp
abilities\aef\timed_ability\vehicle_decrew_medics_mp
abilities\aef\timed_ability\vehicle_decrew_vehicle_crew_mp
Sadly it seems that no matter what I do, 280x280 .tga image or not, the workshop won't get an icon from uploading the mod. Every single time. I'm going *exactly* what the guide says, word for word.
This a bug from the 64bit version of the game. Change your game to 32bit and update the mod will add the thumbnail. Future updates from 64bit will keep the thumbnail.
Right Click Company of Heroes 2 on Steam
Select Properties
Navigate to the Betas Tab
Select “legacy_32bit” from the drop town
Close the Properties window
Your game should now patch to the legacy version

By the way, now that you can modify the unit models, wouldn't it be possible to fix the AT tommies Boys rifle that has buggy magazine? It's floating in the air below the gun instead of being attached to the top of the gun (sniper is fine tho). It's a tiny detail, but for some reason it has bothered me for quite soem time now.
Yes it is possible to fix the Boys magazine. I sent this to the patch team 1,5 years ago, but it was ignored for unknown reasons:
