initially spawned builder must be used to build jammer, so i am making that generic
That might have something to do with it always going wrong for me, I usually have at least 3 scion builders.

Oh, hah! Same here, no wonder that mission glitched the first two times I played it but mysteriously worked the third attempt. :?

Sorry RD, I do not understand: now jammer does not require an Overseer? After your fixes installed, I can build jammer as soon as I gather 50 scrap.

found out that the original Ambush/scion02 engineers builds a custom/modified builder for this mission, which builds a custom/modified jammer that does not have the requirements of an overseer.

scion management added the requirement of the overseer later on, probably to create more paperwork and, in turn, of course, just made it harder for the rank and file to do their jobs.

I played through whole Scion campaign recently with these. Great job! Only got stuck in the second-to-last Scion mission. I completed all the objectives but the end never triggered even after playing Shabeyev's audio.

i just tried The AAN and it completed okay. did you destroy the power crystal while capturing their base?

disregard; there is a test for if the crystal is destroyed, but no fail for it, so i'll add that and check the success condition.
