It's not the same game technically, but the Red Alert or Command and Conquer missions should provide a fairly decent template for how AI is structured in this engine, for single-player missions. I'd recommend Allies 2 from RA to look at how the .lua looks and how the map.yaml looks, since it imports ...

I knew that, I was just explaining the behavior of an outdated build.

Why is the jungle terrain missing from this playtest? I wanted to try to make a shellmap for Tiberian Dawn and thought it'd be the perfect terrain to encapsulate the updates with TD, but it's not in the map menu anymore.

Are you absolutely sure that you booted up 20260222 and not a different version? 20260222 is working on my end, but my previous version(20241228) does exactly what you're describing.

I tried to do both by overriding the helicopter's RearmActors and added a clone of the landing transport with Types ...

Basically, I'd like to prevent the construction of grenadiers and rocket infantry until later, and the player isn't allowed to construct a base, so they can't unlock it ...

Yeah, that does it. Last time I tried making a custom campaign map, that wasn't a thing I had to do, so that got me really confused. Thanks man.

Oh, found the utility tool. Now I'm just confused. Also, I accidentally left England in because I had copied the player configuration from Allies-01. My other map I've been working on doesn't have that problem.
It's complaining about having 0 spawn points. What the in the world?

Hi all! for some reason, the attached map refuses to load. It plagues any new campaign map I attempt to create. Here's the exception log.
