    extension properties - dependency does nothing ?

    I've been trying to adding a depended extension to my extensions, as per the Developer Guide - Extensions but it seems to do nothing.

    The FGU extensions window box does not list any information about this requirement, or auto 'select' the dependency, or auto 'force load' load it when the campaign start. Its basically totally skipped ?

    Does this feature work, am I setting it up wrong. ( I've tried both the filename of the extension and the name shown in the extensions list, neither work.. )

    any clues ?

    MOD: moved to Workshop since this is really a coding question

    Didn't the dependency functionality get removed, or am I misremembering things again

    Yup, removed/deprecated I think.

    Cheers, Steve

    The best you can do is check for the dependency and post a link to it in FG if it's required and not found.

    Its still in the documentation, which is why I was trying it... because documentation is my first point of call. ( Not a 3 year old forum post.. )

    This is in what I currently do, but since the documentation still lists the property... I assumed it was active.

    Absolutley agree with you there. I just recalled seeing that some time ago so chimed in.

    Cheers, Steve.

    I've updated those pages to remove the "dependency" tag reference.

    Thanks, I noticed you add the missing 'ruleset' version.
