how far is the forth side logic out of curiosity?

FourthSide stolen tech/spy possibility please?

fourth side support was already finished.

hows about upgrades as prerequisites?

hows about upgrades as prerequisites?

upgrades in reality not a building - just a building type attached to building.
So all building tags don't work. Building check only few tags on upgrade.

How easy would it be for you to add more tags to the upgrade logic?

Would it be possible to make the Power Off logic use the actual Power Off frames already in the RA2 mouse.sha? Seems pointless that it uses the frame the medic does when there are very good, animated frames for power off (Including one which would apply when you can't power off the particular building).

yes, this possible.

which upgrade logic?

[Blade]

The building one, only stuff like superweapons, power and regular weapons works now when you add an upgrade to a building, basically TS stuff. Having things like the techbuilding bonuses, industrial plant logic and such would be nice.

[tmapm]

Great idea. One flaw that I've found in the Building Upgrade Logic, is if your building upgrade has a superweapon tag, the primary weapon on the building no longer works once upgraded.

Also, it would be nice to have a tag that will simply remove the repair button and not replace it with anything.

[Blade]

Add additional logic for the psychic tower so an alternate animation can be shown when building is controlling units... this is what the logic was intended to be, but was not finished (although the artwork is).

Add additional industrial plant bonuses to adjust a built units 'Soylent' value so modders can decide if a player with control of both an Industrial Plant and Grinder can get free money by buildings units to immediately grind. Currently they always do.

[Electro]

Maybe add the possibility for vehicles to become abandoned/driverless, so you can put any infantry unit in them to take them over, and make a weapon flag like KillsDriver=[bool] (default no/false).

[Electro]

Isn't it easier to prevent robotic units from being abandoned by making a HasCrew=[bool] tag, which would make units with the tag unable to be abandoned.

[Romanul]

i have also an idea:ive heard about an bug that doesnt allow Yuri become allied nor allied country became yuri.

[Mig Eater]

eh... care to elaborate

The only thing I would (still) like too see is the unit limit made a lot higher to allow hundreds of diffrent units.

many want that, maybie he add it for next version

[blackheartstar]

from old wishlist

A warhead tag called Neutralizer= (yes/no). If set to yes the target of the weapon becomes Neutral (stripped of its house) instead of takeing damage. A second warhead tag NeutralOnly= (yes/no) that if set to yes will only effect neutral units (units that are not owned by a playable house).

would kinda work for the recent driverless unit concept.

[SSTG]

Just wondering if its possible to add more country bonues like increased speed for aircraft to explain what I'm talking about but ones like increased fire power etc

[tmapm]

I have an idea for a new prerequisite tag.... suppose someone wants to have a unit that can only be built on one specific type of theater...

You can do this through map files already. Map file overrides rules, so what you can do, is have your units made in your rules file already.

[7TNKSNO]
TechLevel=-1
...


[7TNK]
TechLevel=3
...

And then in Snow Maps You would just need to open with a text editor and add.

[7TNKSNO]
TechLevel=3

[7TNK]
TechLevel=-1


I fail to see the use of the feature that you are suggesting.

OR:
Use the NP tag RequiresTheater=...


If possible to clone bunker logic for infantry or set individual inaccuracy for weapons, they would be beyond nifty...

[MOD2]

Clone "CloakSound=" (in rulesmd.ini) to add another cloaking or decloaking sound or the possibility of add a "CloakSound=" to each unit/infantry to hear a lot of differents cloak/decloak sounds, and using the [AudioVisual] entry only as defaults.
