Buyable Powers

Does anyone know how to make it so you can buy an ability. I would like my control tower to be able to purchase a number of abilities, such as carpet bombing for $5000. It would be fireable from the control tower only, and it would not be able to fire if the tower was taken out or offline. You would not have to purchase it again if the tower is destroyed.

I know it would be by dummy objects, but how?

What are u trying to do? By a power from a building? Or buy it from the generals power menu... I dont quite get what your trying to say

Erm, I assume you want your control tower to use super weapons, so just give it the super weapons, then make it so you can buy upgrades from the tower, and the sw's require said upgrades to function.

Im kinda lost myself...but from what i hear i think you are going IHM's route...I think you gonna wanna make that tower able to buy the carpet bombing upgrade, then have the upgrade linked to a special power, OCL, and Command Button...but from what i hear you either want a superweapon or an Upgrade...

Basically, I wanted for it to:
Buy the right to use the Carpet Bomb. It will cost 6000 dollars, and after you buy it you can use it all you want.

I got it I think.
