You modify the tank's damage by the tank turret unit, not the actual tank. You'll need to elaborate on the string problem. Are you talking about the unit name? What exactly is the problem?

Edit: I believe SCMDraft allows you to edit the damage directly with the tank, but if you're having problems, editing the turret damage would solve it.

Edit2: I just noticed that the tank turret seems to be unchecked for "Use Default" in the latest version of SCMDraft. This is likely a bug. Checking the default and then editing the damage for the tank may also solve your problem.

We can't explain the universe, just describe it; and we don't know whether our theories are true, we just know they're not wrong. >Harald Lesch

If strings get corrupted you're best off reverting to a backup. Go advanced -> backup database and find a good one.
ScmDraft sometimes corrupts strings and usually there's no easy way to fix them.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

Try to avoid switching editors because scmdraft has a system that recycles strings when a string is used twice in the map (other editors create copies).

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
