This is my first time using Specialize and I really enjoy what I can do with it. I have 3 buttons set to activate different weapons. I have the button requirements set so you can activate the weapon as long as the unit does not have the behavior (which activates the weapon and disables the others).
It works perfectly as you can easily choose between 1 of the 3 weapons at any time, with a cooldown of course.
The problem, and I didn't foresee this happening, is there is also a research ability on the same unit which can do upgrades while moving around and doing your stuff. When you go to research your upgrades, and if an upgrade is in queue and you try to change your weapon, it throws it down into the (queue 5).
Very pesky and annoying and sort of defeats the whole purpose of the specialize ability, which I want to use. Don't suppose there is a hidden flag somewhere that would allow me to bypass throwing it into the queue 5?
Did some reading. I guess I'm probably using the wrong ability for what I want to do. I wanted a toggle for 3 weapons, since the behavior ability only does 2. Might as well make 3 effect instants.

Tried the Transient flag?
