Author inheritance

[Jack Ost 124]

Hi,

 

It's normal that author property is not share by inheritance ?

 

For example, I have :

class cfgWeapons
{
  class H_Beret_02;
  class myDLC_Beret_Base: H_Beret_02 {
          dlc="myDLC";
          author="Me";
          scope=0;
  };
  class MyBeret: myDLC_Beret_Base
  {
    scope=2;
    displayName="(myDLC) Beret";
    hiddenSelectionsTextures[]=
    {
     "\myDLC_items\data\Beret\myDLC_beret.paa"
     };
     picture="\myDLC_items\data\Beret\myDLC.paa";
  };
};

And MyBeret have all elements good except author, it's written unknown author.
What is wrong ?

it is, however BI made the checks with the scope of the class itself only

that design make sense insofar it forces explicit author definitions. otherwise likely most community stuff would have BI as author set.

 

so in short:

- author not in base classes

+ author in every scope=1/2 class

OK, thank you for the answer.

Same thing for dlc property, I suppose.
