How can i add these things to ra2
tiberium
tunnels

[TGMTE]

What, do you mean in FA2 or add new tiberium types?
FA2 cannot add tunnels, you have to write the coordinates in manualy in the map file.

[sslee]

i mean add them to the game
NOT FA2

[TGMTE]

ok, new tiberium types i believe is possible, I believe SeaMan made water
tiberium in a mod of his.
Tunnels... You mean like new tunnel graphics? That is also possible but ask Blade, i havnt worked with the isometric controll ini files.

[Hunt7s]

can you place in new ore types then?? On water?? Will it be posible to add like an oil slick where a slave miner type ship or a miner ship will sit over and gather in money??

That will be a good idea.

[TGMTE]

i dunno.
You can add an overlay and give it tiberium=true (or whatever)
Im gonna go experiment with it for awhile...

[TGMTE]

ok, so this is the deal:
If you add a new overlay and give it Tiberium=yes, it will be harvested.
But you will only get 50 credits for a full load, and it wont spread.
This is due to the fact that those things is controlled by the tiberium section
in rulesmd.ini and there are 4 defined types, 2 are used (ore and gems.)
The overlay names for each is probably hardcoded, so i believe that by using the old names from TS, you MAY be able to use the obsolete parameters and tweak them to get for example, sea tiberium.

I believe using an earlier version of FA2 enables the ability to place tunnels ( pre WS version ). Though they dont work correctly and the AI wont use them.

[Hunt7s]

TGMTE are you going to try all the ways round with the old tib sun ore, and things. as it sound like a working idea if ther were 4 set in the ini, then we should be able to make another 2 to get the full 4.

I wish they didnt hardcode nearly everything. Oh well it saves breaching copywrite

3rd Ore Type = Food

That just gave me an idea to emulate AoE in C&C :P

(Miners can be people who go collect stuff)
