[Detail]

I got a QuickMail from OM asking:

i was just wondering how to make a unit that can deploy when it achieves elite status. i tried lots of stuff on my own but it doesnt work and crashes the game. can you help me?

To which i said:

This is tricky... I've not modded RA2 in a while so this might not be accurate:
If you look at the [ggi] 's code you will see he has a deply, if you switch his
ElitePrimary and EliteSecondary weapons around he should only deply when elite.
But these are the settings you need to work with:
ElitePrimary=
EliteSecondary=

Any suggestions would help :min:

Can't be done. If a unit that's already ingame doesn't do it, chances are it can't be done.

Agile's right. Can't be done. As soon as the game sees Deployer=yes, it will deploy Secondary weapon or not.

Exactly, with most EA games if it isn't already done, then it most likely can't. There a few notable exceptions, but for the most part, if it wasn't done, it can't be.

Westwood just didn't like us modding their games :(

I remember, back in the day, when I was skinny and... well anyway I signed some petition online asking westwood to make a mod support patch for TS and RA2.
