I have modified some of the units in their attack and defense stats, in others I modified their obsolete or enable advance and in other units I modified or added bombardment ability.

When I start my game, it fails to start, and I get an error message that says -
units.txt: 3239: Expected struct

What does this mean? I went to the units text file and looked over my modifications and corrected one error but I'm still not allowed to start CTP II.

Thanks for any help.

Well, whatever the problem is, it's within a few lines of line # 3239. Why don't you copy and paste the 5 or so lines leading up to the line number. You're probably missing a "{" though.

You want me to count down to 3,329 lines!?

I wish there was a way to know WHERE line #3239 is!

What are you using as a text editor? Every text editor I use has a line counter in the bottom right hand corner, and even has a "goto line" function. If yours doesn't have this, I'd recommend downloading a shareware one that does. Because yes, counting would be painful.

Hooray! I found my error (without counting thousands of lines)!

I was missing one little bracket in the Abolition unit for my modifications. Now I can PLAY!
