Default Placing buildings

Okay, I am making my mod with the naval/submerged side and I got to thinking; this will work well on the mission maps, but if the players try out a multiplayer game that has no water, my side won't be able to construct. I originally planned on making a few buildings (factory types; ie barracks warfactory, ect.) buildable on land; but (although easy enough) I don't want to make a two buildings (one land, one water) for a single purpose. All my inf can swim and the tanks are amphibous or waterbound only so I was hoping to just stay in the water ya see?

1) Anyway the real question is can the buildings be edited to be built on land and sea?
Or
2) maybe give the builings a 'hover' ability so it could appear like they are sea bases and still be able to be on land?
Or
3) am I just wasting my time here while I could be making the second set of buildings for the land maps?

***EDIT*** By the way, Ive been working on this a while and can't come up with anything. I don't want anyone to think Im just asking because I have tried everything I can think of. :scared:

You could make a new mpmodes file, which uses all new mapfilters. This way the mapfilter definitions in the regular PKT file won't enable any maps.

Then you make your own PKT file, adding just the game's maps which have real water on them to the list again, and redefining their mapfilters so just the maps you want, show up in your game modes.

But -
No existing maps have player start waypoints designed for a water base.
No fan maps will show up in your mod.

Thats fine, the mcv is set to amphibious just for this reasoning. Plus I am actually decent at map making so I can add like fifty maps that I make to the game to make up for the westwood and fan maps I have to leave behind.

Oh I forgot :S Thanx for the advice CannisRabidus.
