External Inheritance Question Turret:Turret

[Charles Rabbit 1]

ORIGINAL.PBO

class cfgVehicles
{
	class AH64D_base: Helicopter
	{
		class Turrets;
	};

	class AH64D: AH64D_base
	{
	    class Turrets : Turrets
		{
		Text123=12;
		};	
	};
};

MYCODE1.PBO

class cfgVehicles
{
	class AH64D;
 	class AH64D_2 : AH64D
	{
	class Turrets;
	};
};

How do I properly inherent an external child class where the original code inherits into the same class name? For example-  class Turrets: Turrets

When I try to inherent this external class, it will not pull the code written into class Turrets: Turrets.
So Text123=12; won't be inherited. How do I fix this?

that should work

[da12thMonkey 1943]

class cfgVehicles
{
	class AH64D_Base
	class AH64D: AH64D_Base
  	{
		class Turrets;
	};
 	class AH64D_2 : AH64D
  	{
		class Turrets: Turrets
		{
			#custom turret classes#
		};
	};
};

Usually, you need to start calling external classes from one stage further back, for every time you indent to call a subclass.

 

You also need to make sure you have proper requiredAddons[] in the cfgPatches to ensure that the parent classes are loaded before your addon.
