Is this possible?

I'm trying to replace standard harriers with my modded ones in a map (vanilla ra2/YR)

The modded ones are pretty awesome and took a long time to create - their only caveat is they are produced at the war factory

I'm hoping to make a repeating trigger so that when you make a "standard" (original) harrier, it is replaced with a modded one via reinforcements thus simulating the creation via a separate production line/ build queue and simulating the creation at the Air force Command Center

The reason I want to do this is because i'm trying to get aerial combat going in vanilla ra2/YR and have done a lot of experimenting. The aerial combat uses Gatling logic and it works fairly well. (previous tests were done using open topped logic)

Thanks for reading this!

Hmmm...makint the vanilla Harrier unbuildable (TechLevel should be the most direct one) and regist a new copy as a jumjet vehicle? There is no gattling logic in RA2 so if you want to do it that way then you are limited within YR.

This will not work as AA with aircraft types not functional in vanilla

As i've said i'm trying to replace the default harrier and ensure it does not interfere with the warfactory queue

I still want to use the default harrier build button to replace with my harrier

Not possible with vanilla, there are multiple ways to do this with Ares though.

Thanks however that is applicable to Ares and will not assist in my ra2/YR map mod intended for online play

Thanks for the response though


What I really need is someway for the player the transact money for a unit without disrupting production queues (apart from AFC) and respect prerequisites.

If it requires an AFC queue or not is a secondary concern
The main concern is the transaction and arrival of said unit

Well looks like its not possible without using Ares though... so we've already helped as best as we can.
