Is there some way we can limit how far away a dozer can construct buildings ? Like buildings can only be constructed when they are near the command center, or in the area, so you couldent like rush a barracks right next to a enemy.
Unfortunately, No. There isn't. I'm pretty sure that its not possible to limit the constrution to distance. Although, we can limit the construction to terrain type and surface type.
ya could only use weapons for "build" buildings...
then ya could use an building range limitation...
but i think ya know it and its not that what ya want...
If an enemy base has just been destroyed in an 8 player skirmish and you have enough money then why not send a few dozers in to expand your base on conquered land?
If you don't want the enemy to build close to you then just take out the dozers while you target their supply lines and center.
No dozers,no money to build them or new units...game over
I believe Waspo is asking this because he would like to implement it in his mod, which is based on Tiberian Sun, which had the build-limited-to-distance thing. Is this right?
If it is, I don't think it's necessary. If you're going to have dozers, might as well keep it as is. Nothing wrong with rushing, in my opinion.

Like Sneak attack, huh? That won't even worth trying - too many issues, and there are few bugs to make matter worse.
If its been done, who has done it? What I would really like is the farther a building is from your power plants, the more power they take.
But I think that is very much not possible.
Its not terribly important, what should be done is making buildings very weak when being constructed. and dozers be slower than any other unit.
actually, theres a mod reconstructing a conyard as in the old CNC, so far they got the distance probelm, Building from conyard problem, and some other minor ones done...Now there working on a prebild idea *BEFORE* u place the building...
