So .. after some discussion with Mak I finally got it working, as can be seen from the above bit of code I was making these through the Alex exec'..Not sure if it's Alex specific (or graphic card, mines an Nvidia something or other) but having -ne on the target line gave me 1000' (yes 1000's) of yellow tga's (about 300-400 per unit) .. Using the preferences on page 2 this thread, and removing -ne worked..

If it doesn't work for you odds are you have a mistake in your DMB, look out for spaces, it doesn't like them apperently (even though your entry works getting the unit in game) use ''Tab'' instead.
