"Custom" Call to Arms won't work

I have it all "set up" just like the normal one just with my new units. I added the correct abilities to both the Town Hall unit and the peasant unit. Somehow it won't detect that there is a Town Hall with peasants nearby, when I try to use the ability with either unit.

I tried using the classification for Town Hall for the town hall, and worker for the peasant unit, but it didn't help.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I don't really know what the problem could be, but I know that Call to Arms as well as Battle Stations don't seem to work with different units. I could never get them to work, anyway. You have the Normal and Alternate form units set correctly?

What does it say when you try to tell the peasant units to change instead of using the town hall building?

I believe you might have to give the unit a "Worker" classification to get it to work properly. I could be wrong on that though.

Already tried. I don't think it will work with custom units. AceHart might know a way, I suppose.

If all else fails, wild guesses still remains.
Like this one:
Add your custom Town Hall as "techtree - dependency equivalent" to the normal default human Town Hall.

I have found that, simply making new characters, or editing specificly, from the "peasant" and "militia" and "town hall" you can make this work. Give the Call to arms to the proper units as well as return to work. These should already be on the respective units so this will not be a problem.

Basicly, change the peasant, militia, and town hall units to what you want them. Shouldn't be harder then that. As for the burrows, I have got it to work by simply naming the unit "Peon". These were all with RoC and not TFT though, so I don't know if there will be any change of results.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
