Well heres another problem i'm trying to solve.

When my recon unit calls in for the destroyer the OCL creates the destroyer at the edge of the map closest to the recon unit but the destroyer is created over the land and not the water so it explodes.

I can't for the life of me remember the line of code telling the OCL to create the ship over water. I believe either ImmoMan or Mithril knows what i'm talking about.

How'd you get the recon unit to call in for a destroyer?

[Hostile]

i would assume he used a command button to activate an OCL that creates or calls in the new object.

Ah, I see.

Hmm thats a bit tricky. It shouldn't explode but instead move to the nearest water patch if you give it the WATER and GROUND surface types in its locomotor..

You could give it a massive percentage to the FALLING damage type in its armor:

FALLING 100000% should do it

How does that stop the unit from exploding because it appears on land? In fact, I'd like to know how it explodes in the first place! 'Cause in this other "naval" mod someone mentioned at sleipnirstuff, the ships don't explode when they appear on land. Could it have something to do with the surfaces in the locomotor, like Mithril said? If we figure this out, it will be very interesting for all the naval mods out there (including our own).

Anyway, what you're thinking of is probably this:

Behavior           = OCLSpecialPower ModuleTag_21
  SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialPowerSpyDrone
  OCL                  = SUPERWEAPON_SpyDrone
  CreateLocation       = CREATE_ABOVE_LOCATION
End

But that's only for special powers so I don't think this is very useful.
