I get a crapload of these. So what does all that mean? At least now it's saying somehting in infolog, that's progress.

You need to include factions.lua in your gadget handler or disable the sorts using factions.

An alternate to disabling is to alter IsCoreOrChicken to "return a and a.core or a.chicken"

Have you tried my version yet? I got rid of all of that stuff...

[Forboding Angel]

Argh you didn't give me a copy of your config, and just inserting your unit_icongenerator causes me to get the exact same error.

Oh. D'uh.... here.

And don't forget, you need to have a bitmap here:

LuaRules/Images/IconGenBkgs/bg_ground.png

YAY ARGH I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!

And for all those who need it in the future:

All you have to change is in the config file, where it says per unitdef settings, change the unitname.

For example:

[UnitDefNames.eartytank.id] = { wait = 30 },

The part in red is the unitname.

Then to run it, just start up spring.exe, and in the chat type:
/cheat /luarules buildicons all

The buildicons will be placed in your man spring folder under a folder called "buildicons". Hopefully this saves someone else from all the trouble I went through.
