yeah Lighting needs fixing I would love to have TS lighting in this i really would.

[Medusa]

Maybe some way of reimplementing the forest fire logic? With these old TS tags enabled you could prevent IEs from warhead with Sparky=yes but animation still does not play.

Under [AudioVisual] section add:
TreeFire=BURN-M,BURN-L;Need animations for them
OnFire=FIRE3,FIRE2,FIRE1

And change IsFlammable=no on trees to IsFlammable=yes

Obolt, that could also be like the Hardpoint tag I've suggested earlier but it's good to have someone revive the idea.

HOLAS: ™

that would be awesome... i'm trying to recreate that in an alternate way... but an official and easy way for make would rock....


call me lazy... because i am.... but anyways i think it would be great as a bonus feature

Ability for units to spawn units other than just AircraftTypes (as well as the ability for buildings to spawn units as well).

EDIT: I almost forgot. Make all missile tags work for custom missile types, and give custom missile types the ability to produce radiation.

This could be similar to the locomotor for the dropship in TS I mentioned somewhere in this thread but I was wondering if you could make tags if possible to make voxels tip a little bit froward when moving forward similar to a hovercraft or a helicopter does

[Dupl3xxx]

I am not 100% shure, but I think those tags are in the game as is

[Romanul]

what about transformation factory?

an unit enters the transformation factory and becomes an upgraded tank!

[SSTG]

I am not 100% shure, but I think those tags are in the game as is

I was thinking that too I thought it was the pitchangle tag but tried playing around with it but no effect

I checked out TS and I was right they do pull up and land tail first though I dunno how checked through both art and rules

I was testing out suicide plane logic out and thought of one that could possibly be useful

though i I'm just checking if its possible and possible to balance as well

individual survivability rates for crew members in a unit

say a you want a harrier pilot to survive 100% of the time if hes shot down and a grizzly tank crew member surviving 50% of the time

though this was thought up when thinking of my idea for ivans paradroping from suicide planes and planting bombs on the enemy base

[OmegaBolt]

Let the game use cshadow.shp for cliff shadows, like in TS.

[EcclairLS]

This maybe my most wacked idea....

Reenable the AIGenerals.... with it's own AI.tlb file maybe??

[和平崛起]

I was thinking about that hull and engineer idea for YR could'nt the first half of the coding be already done?

say we replace the crater from the tank explodsion and put the Hull texture inplace

only thing need to work out is getting the engineer to bring back the tank

heres somethings even Westwood would like (and many of you will benefit form the use of this tag)

this is my suggestion/wish to VK

[codebox]Kickback=[bool] (yes/no) ; dub: if yes basicly units with big weapons gets "kick back" (cannons have this effect on the unit that fires this weapon not turrets or barrel this tag makes the whole unit move back a 1000th of a cell and (back end) tilt down in the opposite direction for a few seconds then returns back to its spot)

VehicleTilts=[bool] (yes/no) ;dub : motobikes tilt just a little needs pitchangel=#.# cannot be more than 0.30 or the looks like the vehicle falls over)[/codebox]

i hope you like my ideas this IMO will help heaps of modders its basic and looks sweet,Okay.. its more eye candy than anything .

Edited by Dubzac, 17 December 2007 - 10:44 AM.

[Dupl3xxx]

I live for eye-candy
And make barrel change hight by range, like stright when target is close, and high if target is far away. Nice for tanks like artilery tanks and so on

NEWPOST
Is there a way to make the spotlights use a "Bright=yes" insted of the per cell way? Would be good for small lights, and a way to select intesity and color

And a way to use RGB to select color of "Bright=yes"

Edit: Typo, New post

I have a really cool idea: Make new Prerequisite types (like the already existing ones: TECH, FACTORY, RADAR, POWER, PROC, BARRACKS). This is how it could be:

[NewPrerequisiteTypes]
0=ALTFACT
1=ALTYARD
2=ALTTECH

[GACHRONBAY]
PrerequisiteType=ALTFACT

[NAPARABAY]
PrerequisiteType=ALTFACT

[YADROPBAY]
PrerequisiteType=ALTFACT

[7TNK]
Prerequisite=ALTFACT

Then, if the player builds GACHRONBAY, NAPARABAY, or YADROPBAY, he can build 7TNK.
EDIT: Of course, with the tags "AltPrerequisite=" and "SecondaryPrerequisite=" this feature could be simulated (for three sides) but there are modders adding new sides in their mods, so this kind of feature could be useful for them.

In now, EMP siries warhead out of order
in short, I listed a warhead that has EMP tag likely as
0%0%0%0%0%0%0%100%0%0%0%, it can only affect to steel armor type.
but if the warhead has cellsplash type, the splashing EMP damage can
affect to other warhead type.

Same applies to weapons with Iron Curtain effect, plus, infantry is killed even if the warhead has 0% against it. I also noticed that IC warheads with CellSpread=.5 and lower don't affect infantry and units with hover locomotor (although those without defined CellSpread do). I was hoping this could be fixed too.

[genobreaker]

i have a wish...

improving this tag or made some changes... or add etc..

PrerequisiteProcAlternate= <------ it is hardcoded only to 1... it doesnt accept commas... like SMIN,SMIN2,SMIN3 etc...
so somelike when you make another slave miner type... when it repacks... the building tech prerequisite for other buildings that have Prerequisite=PROC,<building> dont show up...
so you need always it to deploy the slave miner...
