Default Propaganda truck for Red Alert 2

Here's the awesome idea.

A truck that "fires" a propaganda attack which toggles 10% hitpoints of every enemy unit in his range.

[Propaganda]
ROF=1 ; everyone listen the propaganda instantly when in range
Range=5
CellRangefinding=yes
FireOnce=yes ; to prevent destroying things instantly
Projectile=Invisible
Warhead=Super ; it affects every unit

the only problem is damage: is it possible to make a "toggle-a-10%-to-every-unit-you-attack"?

You can't make a weapon do 10% damage to all units in its range because Damage= specifies a number, not a percentage of a units health, and will only accept numbers.

Sure, just copy some of the Mastermind weapon and alter as needed.

maybe if you study the armor types, you could make the weapons it uses different in power to different armors, and try to make it as close as you can to 10 percent. I still haven't figured out the armor stuff, and i have played with the ini files for years.

Get the code working, then worry about pretty graphics.

Temporary mind control isn't possible (except if you can code-control when the mind controller is destroyed or goes into low power).
Messing with the verses can't achieve different damage values for different hp units.

Nice idea but I don't see how you can make it work.
