Multiplayer Flexibility

[Romav]

Hi all,

Still working on my first map and had a few questions about what can and can't be done in multiplayer maps for this game.

For a multiplayer map, is it possible to set a tech level for all players so certain buildings can not be constructed?

Is it possible to have working reinforcement pads in a multiplayer map?

Thanks heaps if anyone is able to answer.

both can be done easily, you should look around the forum for thing like that. It requires some scripting though

Speakin' of multiplayer flexibility, is it possible to have UMS maps (StarCraft reference of multiplayer scenarios), so to speak? I've still been completely unsure of this, but it seems possible, as the player options include "Player is computer-controlled?" (Not sure of the exact wording).

One such instance of a so-called UMS map is...
Player X starts out with a base and player Y starts out with a small defensive force of heroic units without a construction yard and has to defend a region until M time runs out.

those art of defence maps are already in the making, but currently scripting might be very limiting because we still have to wait for ea to reliese the software development kit.

I used to love UMS for starcraft. I'd love it if it became possible to make similar maps for C&C3 multiplayer. Especially coop missions.

Anyone know if it was possible for C&C Generals?
