anyway round BuildAt problems?

In my mod i use a separate helipad to produce helicopters instead of the war factory. The helipad uses ARES BuildAt and Factory.ExplicitOnly logic. All works fine exept for 2 annoying bugs

1: building a helipad increases production speed of all VehicleTypes, including the ones that are only allowed to be produced at the war factory. And vice versa

2: both the war factory and the helipad use the same Primary Building selection. which obviously causes issues (i hope you understand what i mean)

Does anyone know a workaround or something to fix these annoying issues?

1. I think that this can be corrected only this customizable function (Customizable ARES)
2. In turn leading building? If so, then my answer is the same as in paragraph 1.

PS: I do not exclude that there is a workaround, to me it seems unlikely.

thx, hopefully someone will know a workaround, but yes it is unlikely. Maybe i should do a Ares request

Do an bug fix request. No workaround for this.

I don't see any bugs here. This would be a feature request.

2 actually works as should. If you pick a new Primary which can't build everything possible, than the ones it can't build will try to pop out at the previous Primary first.

if you have, say 2 war factorys and a helipad. And you set a war factory to primary, and then set the helipad to primary. The vehicles that come out of the war factory, will come out of the last built war factory instead of the one set to primary. And vice versa

You can't make the game treat them as separate factories without Ares devs adding new types of factories to the game. There's nothing that can be changed with that, and it's not a bug either. It works exactly as it was designed to.

I know this, i was just hopeing there might be some sort of workaround, as unlikely as it may be. Also i never called it a bug. I'll file a Ares blueprint, if there isn't one already

lol, didn't notice that, it seems i did call it a bug. But you are right it isn't really a bug

EDIT: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ares/+spec/deglobalise-multiplefactory - Blueprint added, don't suppose it's worth doing one in the Ares forum here now
