Replace structure with another structure?

[Madin 11]

Instead of hiding and unhiding sub objects, I would like for my Component tower to work by replacing the entire GameObject with a completely different GameObject.

Trying to to use the 'ReplaceSelfUpgrade' to replace the defensive structures leads to a crash.

 

What is the best way to have a structure get replaced by another structure once an upgrade (PLAYER or OBJECT) is purchased?

It would only crash if you end up with 2 overlapping structures. But in any case it's recommended to go structure -> unit -> structure for pathfinding reasons.

Thanks for the answer.

Try to remove the kind of "IMMOBILE" and test if that works. I've had same problems with my lua object position spawner initially.

Thanks for the additional information!

Crash was because I was using a 'PLAYER' upgrade to trigger the 'ReplaceSelfUpgrade', instead of an 'OBJECT' upgrade.
