That way of making navies is very bugged.

The best way is with a tech shipyard, with everything scaled down a bit so that the map is bigger.

There is also a way to make these shipyards destructible, but able to be rebuilt as well. So this would allow temporary immobility to the enemy Navy, but it doesn't turn the game into a navy bashing game for the whole time.

i think that navy's are a crap idea for remix its so not generals

[GMMS]

Your mod is wonderful and the models are exquisite, but why not add some navy units in it. If we can build battleships more powerful than Missouri and the aircraft carrier in the game, the tactics will be more complex and the game will be more exciting.

This has been spoken about many times even in the last 3 or 4 posts so i am surprised u actually said this. lol
Pend needs a mapper because he would rather add a neutral building what you capture build ships rather than build them yourself.
Another reason why is because there is no maps that have enough water to be of any fun and the models would then need to be scaled down to simply make them match the scale of the maps, no point having a battleship the size of a lake if it will move an inch and be at the other side of the lake.
Also navy is always has bugs they can be made to be as bug less as passable but no matter what you do there will always be 1 or 2.
Besides does generals "really need" a navy?
It never had one only had ships in missions but that does not count, it was not made for controllable navy and this is why there is hardly any water on maps and the limited size of them.
Look at red alert 2 the navy in that looks small compaired to the map and as such gives them meaning, personally i happy without them they wont add much to the game imo.

I completely agree with Phoenix911, Generals does not need navy and it would only suck if it was added.
I like generals the way it is with ground and air based combat. It does not need water as well...

The only thing Naval that i would be satisfied with would be a support power where an off map ship fires cannons to the target area, or the aircraft carrier used in one one the ZH missions uses its planes as a generals power.

problem with this olli is the carriers or battleship would need to be on the map reason for this is because if it is not then all it will look like is artillery with a name of navel bombardment.

Exactly... my point being I really wouldn't want any ship on the map, so it would be the same as an artilery strike, but with a different explosion FX, and bigger shells.

The planes coming on and bombing the target would be fine aswell.
in the target area, 20 raptors (in groups of 2) fly past the area attacking targets on oppurtunity with missiles and dropping bombs inside the AoE to damage buildings. Would be quite a nice power actually....

[Phoenix911]

May as well just be AF gen if thats the case he has enough great planes and bombers with 2 fantastic sw's.
Why use a power when u can haev unlimited strikes

In the 2.29 Remix Alpha, you can play as the USA and Chinese generals.
Only robot ai works in this version, and our master Pend is in Iraq so the community is a little dead.
But the mod will be fully released one beautiful day and the world will unite to play Remix 3 and Contra together!

if you haven't already, go check out Contra: Here!

Contra version 6 is upcoming but ver 5 is released and very enjoyable!

Better with "useless" comments than nothing.
And if you dont like it, why did you post?
These 2 latest posts were most useless.

I was simply giving an explanation as to "why" no one has posted, and please tell me HOW posting useless stuff is better than not?
If u wanna talk then talk on msn to your friends or go post in the "off topic area" don't post crap in this topic for no reason that is unrelated to suggestions.

So hopefully you understand that this is "suggestions" topic not "lets talk crap" topic.
So now that being said i hope pend or someone can remove both mine and your useless posts, and no i not being an ass to you simply making you see sense about what topic is for what.
