Unit Groups Window

[crakerz]

Some of this is posted in "untitled error" thread, but I thought it might be better to consolidate with a new issue:

When using the Unit Groups Window:

Issue 1:
If you choose to modify an existing Action, the Modify Action Window appears, but the Action shows the default underlined values. If you click on one of those, the correct values then appear.

Issue 2:
Created several Unit Groups in my level, and when I exported the level, a group called "cauu#" is created (the # being a number that increments each time I export.) If I delete the group, the # resets the next time it is created. Multiple exports result in multiple creations of this group.

Further research shows that this "cauu#" group may be created as a result of a trigger action, where a building is spawned in an area if certain conditions are met. I've noticed that only mobile units are on the list for groups, but you can Spawn anything as an action to a trigger.

A possible "fix" to multiple creations of the cauu group:
A. Use the Spawn Action in the desired trigger to create units that aren't supported by the Unit Group window.
B. Export the level.
C. Open the Unit Group window and note the name given to the group.
D. Change the action in the trigger from Spawn to Create Unit Group, using the name noted in step C.
Subsequent exports won't create new groups as before.
(Sure would be nice to have the ability to NAME our own groups.....)

Issue 3:
More that one Unit Group window can be opened at a time. I created a group3 on one, and then clicked over to a second open window. Clicking on "new" created another group3 (two group3 in the list appeared) that was different from the first. This could cause a few problems, I'm thinking, during compile.

Regarding renaming the unit groups:

I finally did it, but not intentionally. I mena, I can highlight the name, right-click, left-click, move the cursor arround over it, roll the scroll, and nothing happens. Typing on the keyboard has no effect. But sometimes, for whatever reason, it will suddenly become editable !@#$%

(I need help.....)

Thanks to chiron, I can now do this easily. For those that may be experiencing the same frustration (and it may be just me ), but the trick is to click on the name, wait a few beats (so it isn't seen as a double click) and click again.

(Why is it the simple that eludes me?)

Thanks for the repro scenario to the "cauu" group problem, I'll be looking into it before next release.

crakerz, these 3 problems are fixed for the next release. Thanks for the bug report.
