    Well I tried it again and I am receiving the same error. I noticed a few other things when going through the tutorial a second time and I think that some of the issues I am having may be related to editor updates.

    1. Weapons tab - Effect field requires the weapon to be a legacy weapon.
    2. Name the building's Actor Attachment Bunker - Couldn't find this on the units tab but I did find "bunker copy" on the actors tab renamed it there.
    3. Host + Subject > Attachment bunker. - I had to check actor to find the item.
    4. Attack Start and Attack Stop are not available in the subname on events+ There is however Attack redirect and stop redirect.

    When I had doubled checked that I had followed the instructions as closely as I could I opened up your map and noticed at the least that the models list on the units tab for your bunker contains all the bunker models. Mine however, does not. So I tried to reduplicate the bunker with various items selected including the models in the duplicate menu but every copy I made did not have the models or the bunker actor.

    I am kind of at a loss and I fear that maybe blizzard has changed this process in such a way that this method is no longer effective. Ultimately I have no idea where to go from here. I haven't looked at the Brutalisk tutorial at all yet but I think that I may try looking at that tomorrow.

    Thanks for any help or suggestions.

    This is a good tutorial but I am having some issues. I need to run through this again with the information I hope I figured out correctly. But I think you make some assumptions that where somewhat frustrating to me. I suspect that we were viewing the data editor differently which caused me some grief in finding items you were talking about. I think it would be good if you started by telling how you use the editor. I think the view options that make the most sense are Show Table View activated Show Default Values Activated Show Advanced Fields Activated Show Field Type Names Deactivated and Combine Structure Values activated. Additionally I think you should list the dependencies that you are using for the map. Finally there were somethings like Duplicate the bunker and its actor which weren't clear to me either as when I hit duplicate I was present with 40 or so check boxes . I guessed at Bunker checked at the top and bunker checked under the actor section beneath bunker.

    The ultimate issue that I am having though is that I get this warning " Warning: Invalid attach method [Unavailable] in AttachQuery[Methods=e_attachKeyIGNORE Fallback=IGNORE]." when I try to place the bunker on the map. Also if I make the model "Attachment Bunker" the bunker portion shows as a white hemisphere with the turret rotating atop it but no shield to be found. And in game I get an error about not being able to load the adjutant 2 asset. In any case I try the tutorial again on a fresh map and see what happens.
