unit is getting captured when i lose the battle, and i can't figure out why

[beelee]

@ff03k64 it's because it's isInfrastructure. Idk of a solution.

I guess you could have them destroyed when captured. Or at least I think you can

[ff03k64]

Maybe i should describe what i am going for and see if there are suggestions for another way to do it. I want this unit to support units in the battle (negative support enemies in this particular case), but i don't want it to be able to be picked as a casualty.

@ff03k64 what map? some maps give you an option for "destroy" or "capture" units.

[ff03k64]

@SilverBullet I am making a map

[SilverBullet]

@ff03k64 ahh, then another map maker needs to answer that, but the Napoleon map has that option.

[ff03k64]

@SilverBullet Do you know what unit has it?

[SilverBullet]

@ff03k64 in Napoleon you can set the option to either destroy or capture "generals" or "encampments", so i dont think it is a unit thing but an option thing.

[ff03k64]

@SilverBullet Okay, i will at least check those units out though. Thanks!

[SilverBullet]

@ff03k64 good luck!

[ff03k64]

Thanks you!

@ff03k64 yea I got a unit I don't want as a hitpoint either. I made it infrastructure like you have but it would get captured if a lost battle. It was a strategic bomber so the situation rarely occurred.

However, I'm noticing with 2.2 it's being offered as a hit point and I don't remember that with 13066. Unfortunately my OS is all jacked up and I can get 13066 to work anymore so I can't check to see if that is the actual case.

@ff03k64

Check this property:

<!-- if true, units with destroyedWhenCapturedBy will be destroyed instead of captured. only applies to non-combat units, since combat units die in combat -->
<property name="Units Can Be Destroyed Instead Of Captured" value="true" editable="false">
      <boolean/>
</property>

Cheers...

@wc_sumpton That was it, thanks!
