Spawn auto have my commander already selected so that I don't have to click on it at the start.

admit it, you all want it.

I don't have the hide for this I couldn't know where to start.
If there's any questions as to what I mean don't hesitate.

I'd love this.

Yeah this is something that would make me happy too! It would go well as a part of DeathByDenim's Favourite Colour mod.

Just need to call the following once the game starts:

api.select.commander();

Mod is on PAMM https://forums.uberent.com/threads/rel-favorite-commander-and-color-v1-0-0-62037.57278/

They mean automatically selecting your commander when the game starts after you choose your spawn point (I think)

right you are. and I'm going to do some tests with raven's code.

I totally suggested this already. I will continue hating on you once I can find my own topic with search.

EDIT: BOOM! Suck it, losers!

I tried everything that I could, I couldn't make use of that call.

Should work.
Just make sure you call it when the time is right in a live_game scene.

arg gonna try again.

The timeout is kind of a hack, but I'd have to read live_game in detail to look for a better signal.

Code:

 model.showLanding.subscribe(function(show) {
    if (show == false) {
      setTimeout(api.select.commander, 200)
    }
  })

OK, here's where I'm at :


why do both :

Code:

for (var k=0;k<1;k++) {
api.select.commander();
}

and

Code:

for (var k=2;k>1;k--) {
api.select.commander();
}

Keep the commander infinitely selected?

is that NOT a one time loop? WTF? (I place this at line 321 inside the SelectViewModel function)

not to mention @wondible is right, other than mimiking the game startup timeout duration we have no choice!

This has already been done here: https://forums.uberent.com/threads/rel-favorite-commander-v1-0-1-62037.57278/

no it hasn't he means that when you spawn your commander is automatically selected so you don't have to click on it at the start

The code gets run every time the selection changes, and then changes the selection. You've created an form of recursive function with a detour through the game engine event system. ;^)

I think you need to edit the title and/or OP, lots of people seem to be confused.

to what?

EDIT: changed title, we'll probably still have this issue anyways.

Won't this select all commanders in team games though ?
It used to be like this. Maybe Gamma fixed it ?

no. even if the UI makes it unclear as hell, you have one commander. that call selects YOUR commander

that was when you both had the same commander and double-clicked on one, since they were the same type of unit it just selected both.
