is enum similiar to moduletag in that it has to be different in all cases than the otherI guess , im trying to ask , i have two mapalm strikes special powers built , both have the ENUM SPECIAL_NAPALM_STRIKE

My game is crashing now , after i made these two powers , but i changed the enum , and it is still crashing. This is all i have really changed though, any ideas anyone?

ENUMs cannot be made up, they are hard-coded into the game. Each ENUM has a differing set of properties, eg. SPECIAL_PARADROP_AMERICA does not allow targetting in fog, and SPECIAL_HACKER_DISABLE_BUILDING only allows use on the STRUCTURE KindOf (I think).

Just make sure you don't have 2 SpecialPowers with the same ENUM at the same time, some strange things happen.

[goblinsleez]

Can you please be more precise , as in.

Have two super powers on a faction that have same enum , or two super powers that go off simulatenously with same enum?

You can't have 2 SpecialPowers w/ the same ENUM active and counting down per player (IIRC) at the same time.

Ahhh , ok , kewl , thank you

Luckily, there are several leftover Enum= values that you can salvage from superweapons that never quite made the cut for vanilla Generals or ZH.

Where can we find a list of these?

[sc4freak]

game.dat?

[Alphathon]

Hey would it be possible (or even legal) to reverse engeneer it, like they did for BFMEs assets.dat?

[theliberator2005]

What for??
It's only a file, that contains the constants defined in the compiled hardcode.
The only result of changing game.dat would be a game crash.
(The only purpose reverse engeneering could have is doing a crack for the game, but you would have to modify the exe itself, too. And I think we agree, that's NOT legal AND we WON'T do it lol)
