I have but a single question!

I've checked out all the tank paradrop topics on this forum. I used RockoPatch as a reference, and put the following into my .ini file:

Quote:

[GACNST]
SuperWeapon=NewParaDropSpecial

[MouseCursors]
NewPara=259,10,4,516,-1,12345,12345

[NewParaDropSpecial]
UIName=Name:NewParaDrop
Name=American ParaDrop Clone
IsPowered=false
RechargeTime=1
Type=NewParaDrop
Action=NewPara
SidebarImage=NEWPARAICON
ShowTimer=no
DisableableFromShell=no
ParaDropPlane=PDPLANE
DropUnits=MTNK,BFRT
DropUnitsNum=2,1
DropInf=E1,GGI,TANY
DropInfNum=3,2,1

[SuperWeaponTypes]
12=NewParaDropSpecial

The reason I copied the same exact codes used in the examples on RockoPatch was to see if this would even work.
And it didn't. Here's how it didn't work:
1) when timer reached 0 and I clicked on the sidebar image to use it, the timer restarts (as though it were building another unit)

Now can anyone help me and tell me why it didn't work? Or tweak my coding and send it back to me corrected? Thank you.

EDIT:

This is for a C&C: RA2 multiplayer map.
I also welcome other methods for tank paradrops.
Also, pdplanes landing and taking off look kinda really dumb.

I've been trying to find a way to make tanks paradrop just as infantry do when a Tech Airport is captured for so many hours, they may as well be grouped into days.

Patch?
And I knew about the "newparaicon." I don't know why I included that in the details.

What do I need to do to get this to work, exactly?

You need Yuri's Revenge 1.001 installed, then you need to have added the Rock Patch (the version with the code you need or a newer version).

You can't just use the code set out by Rock Patch without installing it.

Mm. I do not have Yuri's Revenge, and I assume because of this I will not be able to use this code.

Thank you for your help.
