Why does this text pop up every time a Mtd Inf Scout meets its demise at the hands of the Sanusis? Am I overlooking something?

@IF  
UnitKilled  
unit=Mtd Inf Scouts  
attacker=Sanusis  
defender=Allies  
@THEN  
JustOnce :eek:
Text  
The Sanusi strike across the Libyan border!  
EndText  
@ENDIF

The following sequence seems to work fine in Red Front 1.4

@IF
CITYTAKEN
city=Kiev
attacker=Germans
defender=Soviets
@THEN
TEXT
The German BlitzKrieg ......................... the Kiev pocket.
ENDTEXT
JUSTONCE
@ENDIF

The only significant difference seems to be the position of JUSTONCE.

I think AGRICOLA is likely correct.

Is JUSTONCE case sensitive?

But then, the macro.txt says JustOnce should be the first statement after @THEN.

Nope. Nothing is AFAIK, except possibly city/unit names etc.

I checked more of the scens that I have played and they all have JUSTONCE immediately before @ENDIF

The following example corresponds exactly to Boco's and is taken from Kobra's Norwegian Campaign.

@IF
UNITKILLED
unit=Transporter
attacker=Germans
defender=Great Britain
@THEN
TEXT
The Polish Liner Chrobry is sunk and with it the only British tanks (3rd Hussars) allocated to the Norwegian Theatre.
ENDTEXT
JUSTONCE
@ENDIF

Could the macro.txt be in error?

[Boco]

Thanks, Agricola. Will check as soon as RL slows down a bit. JustOnce works immediately after @THEN with other actions in the same scen, but this is the only sequence that has solely a Text action.

Off at a tangent:

I think 'Sanusis' should be spelled 'Sanussis'

[Boco]

I've seen Sanusis, Sanussis, Senussis, and Senusis depending on the book's age and nationality of the author, but I like Google's translation of Italian sites the best: the rebellious ones. No problem to change it to Sanussis.
