Create unit tags misfunction *FIXED*

There are two kinds of problems I am facing, one is where a string such as "Create Devourer" comes up as "eate Devourer". The other is that the part that shows the mineral, gas, and supply cost is not shown. I attached my mod if it helps find the problem.

Also, if you run it, and the custom tags aren't shown, please tell me.

Thanks! it works now :)

For anyone else who has the same problem, it seems that the cause is that hotkeys are necessary to proper function of a tag when applicable (not optional) and if you try to remove the hotkey, the game confuses it with a different kind of tag (such as a name of a unit)

I think this is because the opcodes of the tag aren't set up properly. The <> parts.



Show them your butt, and when you do, slap it so it creates a sound akin to a chorus of screaming spider monkeys flogging a chime with cacti. Only then can you find your destiny at the tip of the shaft.

<0> = Label Only, no Requirements
<1> = Minerals, Gas, Supply (Unit/Building)
<2> = Upgrade Research
<3> = Spell
<4> = Technology Research
<5> = Minerals, Gas (Guardian/Devourer Aspect)

Told you already.

The first character is the hotkey, followed by the label type. So, you'd probably want something like "d<1>Create <3>D<1>evourer<0>". (The <3> and the second <1> are color tags, not label types.)



None.

I tried both and for some reason both problems persist.

Attach your stat_txt.tbl file. Tell me what lines specifically are dysfunctional.

To name a few:

Create Mutalisk/Guardian/Devourer/Death Hybrid/Storm Hybrid/Blood Hybrid

and thanks for helping me :)

O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- below the minimap should be a thing that says "Overlay Settings" with a little + button in the corner, press the + to expand it, uncheck Use Defaults, then change "Tile Overlay" to "Height"
