Its nice to have a few buildings in the game that look like they could do something but don't. It gives mappers who can't make models something to use. It also gives modders an exploitable model. I like what Insert did, he made the tech center into an observation post that gives fog of war vision. ...

Ehhhhhhhhhhh, that's definitely wrong. go to home/username/.openra/mods and drop the mod there. You don't need sudo then. .openra is hidden however, but you'll need that folder anyway for the replays/screenshots and whatnot.

Only allowed to build rifle/flamers/APC/Harvesters in terms of units, only 1 defence structure per player at any given time (flame tower to build flamers), obviously no point in teching past war factory with this build.

I recall discussions from several months ago about how prominent TD players were being abusive (or, at best, assholes) towards new players. I also recall that the response from other prominent TD players was that this kind of behaviour is acceptable, and that it is the newbies' fault for not harden...
