Yiiii

(Meawhile ive finished reinfocments. Only things left is to assign teams and made iron curtain posts. Also, crutial question - is signal inhibitors go for role? I mean, its easy to destroy this post with superweapons. Inhib will prevent that. Or just signal jammer effect at pos created by some "jammer" non foehn unit.)

Someone will tell me about team assigment in order to make "spawned reinfocment" units separate from AI, and make that side ally to others? or i can just straight make them in one team and hide durable structure as placeholder, so destruction of 3 AI bases will not be only step. Then make triggers to destroy all team stuff (as not many want to clear ALL defences). But that way is not reliable, since destroying that much objects will actually chash the game, as i tested.

The only thing will be left, is iron curtain at building. I wait for respond.

Sure, if you can figure out which is which

Eventually. Ill just assign all to B team, while players - A

You can concider that challenge almost done, ill share it to you after i finish

[Handepsilon]

Btw, I can't understand your last request. Can you word it a little bit clearer?

[John Carver]

Basically, its like in final of Combustion co-op, when, after time expires, building is covered in iron cutrain to prevent damage to it, so you can stop defending it. What i want to do - each shaft will be covered in permanent iron curtain, making it indestructible. And only way to disable the iron curtain effect - destroy specific building with trigger attached to it, or just destroy number of buildings. Example - destroy command 1 to "reveal" shaft 1. Or infiltrate command to do so.

And i dont understand something about triggers. EVENT section will trigger the ACTION when all completed? Or when one of theese was done?

Well, the first thing that comes to mind is just a repeatable trigger with [109- Iron Curtain At ] , that gets disabled after destroying the required building. The problem is that it will constantly play the animation and a loud sound. Another idea is  making something based on the Iron Guard, but I haven't tried it,so I'm not 100% sure it will work, just some food for thought.

ALL of the conditions must be met for the trigger to activate.

Good!  Now im able to finish the stuff.

Overload Challenge (Last Update:31.03.2018)

 

The Russians has managed to capture one of Allied major power supplies in Europe and now using it to greatly boost the capabilities of their Tesla weaponry.
They also deployed a few helicopters equipped with experimental long range Tesla coils.

Pics:

Spoiler

1) Eiffel Tower as a giant Tesla Coil. Also constantly overcharges Tesla units in a big AOE.
    2) Overcharge also gives a speed boost to affected units,duration greatly increased,firepower boost slightly lowered.
    3) Tesla Cruiser:
        50% reduced EMP duration
        releases a EMP blast on death.
        starts with an Elite version of his weapon.
    4) Apocalypse:
      Immune to Mind Control and Charon tank
      releases a EMP blast on death.    
    5)Peruns with a long ranged Tesla bolts that can target air units.
    6) Kirovs with EMP bombs (work on buildings too).

wonderful challenge you made, me and Handepsilon gave it a try and we won... but there is a loooooooooong story behind that bitter win.

I picked Last Bastion while being on the right side, Handepsilon was on the left with USA and I started camping and spamming raccoon to brace for nuclear impact, used a Superweapon to kill the Eiffel Tower (which was not that hard to kill, 1 of our superweapons was sufficient even though we used both on it) then I made my push and suddenly there is a kirov destroying my base out of nowhere, once I ran out of power the rest of the soviets paradropped tanks and terrors in my base so I couldn't do anything about it.

I still had my pushing force which was able to finish off the Russian AIs except the left base, meanwhile my MCV ran to handepsilon's base and I started rebuilding my base but the AI had other plans where he just bum-rushed my MCV with Apocalypse tanks rendering me with nothing but a signal inhibitor keeping me in the game and this this small task force : 

 

it took us exactly (1 hour 19 minutes and 23 seconds) to complete.

as for the challenge itself it is very good but the money is a huge issue on it even with the gems around because tesla weaponry is too good that you can't hold on without base defenses. other than that I don't think I have anything to complain about.

however how did you manage to keep a stable FPS rate even with the rain effect ? we had over 30 fps the entire time even with 3 AIs 5 armies and rain affects which is nearly impossible to do

Hmmm... maybe less buildings and more thinked routes, wich preventing units cludding in one are

Im not that professional, thru

[John Carver]

Meanwhile, i think tomorrow my Mechanized challenge will be done too. Theres still need to assign the teams, and the rest on the scripts. Also... a pro-tip for future map makers - DO NOT set waypoint inside building or Iron curtain effect in building. This will crash your game every time you try to launch map.

[Terminal Velocity]

Thanks for your feedback.Well, the map isn't huge and I placed the rain animations as far from each other as it's possible. I kinda suspected that money might be an issue, i'll try to do something about it. Also Eiffel Tower dying from 1 SW? I'll have to recheck that.

How about putting tech deposit banks, and additional 2 oil derrecks?

[Terminal Velocity]

Maybe, and adding a bit of gems wouldn't hurt either.

[StolenTech]

I like the Idea of spreading the gems to make players work for them, but that doesn't work with your challenge's idea.

[Terminal Velocity]

I'll most likely add something to make defending easier.

EDIT:Uploaded the updated version.

Changes:

Spoiler

Replaced Expansion posts with Cannon Bunkers.

Added Expansion Post in the middle and two Artillery Bunkers around the entrances near the Oil Derricks.

Added two Deposit Banks

Fixed Eiffel Tower's armor.

Changes to Ore/gems placement.
