so youre running your own supcom version - like 3599 - and not the faf version which has all this and more included?

That would be the Scathis. I read somewhere that it's named after a developer.

Got it.... Sheeo was close

The Sorian AI mod also uses a lobby mod that was over writing the stock lobby GUI.

After a fair amount of detective work I found the right lobby / unit restrictions file that the Sorian AI was actually using, added XSB2401 to the 'no nukes' list (where it should have been in the first place), and all is well.

You should modify the /lua/ui/lobby/restrictedUnitsData.lua file.

FAF version can be found here: https://github.com/FAForever/fa/blob/develop/lua/ui/lobby/restrictedUnitsData.lua

In the base game this file lives in the lua.scd zip.

A more granular unit restriction manager would indeed be very nice.

Right now the restrictions are not precise enough to restrict , let's say, hover t2.

Could it be possible to have a unit by unit restriction, possibly with templates ?

Restricting Yolona Oss

2015-03-31T04:07:01+02:00

Hey guys,

After taking several years off from SC/FA I'm back into the game, and have addicted several co-workers to it. We're running the lobby enhancement mod 4.4 and sorian AI 2.1.2. I realize things have progressed since then, but this build seems stable with little 'AI Lag' that previously dragged long games to a crawl, and works well.

At time I had a really granular unit restriction manager, but lost it, and I really don't have the time to get back into modding. If anything we just want to restrict the Yolona Oss from the build manager for everybody (including AI). Restricting game enders kills units we like.

Also, could you reply in a syntax for somebody who doesn't mod, but does know file structure? I've been all over google trying to solve this one and greeted with either dead links, links to dead links, and RAR files that don't work.

Much appreciated!
