Transparent unit

[whoward69]

Is it possible to create a unit that has no world view animations or unit flag, and no strategic view flag? That is a unit that exists on the map, but is just not visible to the player?

When I forgot to set the fsxml VFS to true, the game did not crash, but the unit is invisible... But I suppose you want something less hacky.

For the flags, transparent DDS should do, no ?

The unit will be static (under something else) so "hacky" is good - I'll give it a go. Problem with all alpha DDS is you still get the borders from the standard FlagManager code - but I may be able to live with that - as it's the animations I really don't want.
