2 Queries on the Editor

Help please. Still struggling with the editor.
Scenario Budapest 45. Objective to increase Axis Prestige by landing a transport on Budapest Airfield
1. Selected 3 x Ju52 for Transport script then switched to units and selected Ju52 but unable to place it on the map.
2. Tried a bomber instead of Ju52. Created map condition for increase in Prestige if Axis unit in Zone 11 equal to 1. Filter: Air Tactical Bomber Bf-110 C7 Bomber. Zone 11 is a single hex airfield.
Warning not validated! Subsequently confirmed that it did not work

I am not proficient with scripts so I will let another person address that. But regarding transports, you cannot place empty transports on the map in the editor. You would need to place a unit (probably infantry) and then place the Ju52 on top of it.

Another option: some scenario designers have placed empty transports on the map by manipulating the equipment file. In the eq file, you change the class of the Ju52 from transport to bomber; in the editor, place the Ju52 on the map as a bomber. Then change the eq file back to its original form. You end up with a Ju52 transport on the map.

Hope that helps.

Ok, thank you cw58 for the help. You can in fact use the Ju-82 in Structures but that does not work either. So instead of trying to emulate a bomber use any strategic bomber, then we have If Axis unit in Zone 11 equal to 1. Filter: Air Strategic Bomber Germany Core. Still does not work
