Though it doesn't matter, DoubleOwned doesn't have any effect. That was a Red Alert tag and it's entirely left over.

And if you want the sound on the building to play when it's 'built', you only need WorkingSound with no NotWorkingSound.

Other than that, should be helpful and easily expanded since this is the only method for MAD Tanks.

Well yes. Also you can make fake superweapons with these or your tutorial, AG.

Well for those who can't install NPatch, ZPatch, RPatch, or Ares. Then it's not pointless for them.

It doesn't use any "superweapon logic" your just deploying a invisible building which can be placed anywhere
