How change the rules of my map?

Hi everybody !
Since yesterday, I create maps. But I would change the rules of my maps, to have new vehicles, better tiberium, more powerful weapons and a lot of other things. How can I do that ? How change the rules ?
Thanks for your answers !

you have to be somewhat fermiliar with ini coding. Basically what you do to edit a unit is this:
1 - place the ini name of the unit in brackets like so [WINNI] (that is the RV)
2 - copy the units ini and past it in the map under its ini name
3 - change the desired properties of the unit such as health, armor type speed etc.
4 - once you've made the changes you've wanted, delet any unedited values in the code on your map. (IE if you didnt edit the speed of the unit delete speed=tag)

Do the same thing with any existing part of the game.

To create a new unit is simple:
1) find a unit in the game that best represents the unit you want to create
2) copy its code with its ini identity and paste it in the map
3) edit the ini identity/name (EI if you copied [wini] change the name to [wini2] or something
4) change properties of the unit you desire

do this with anything else in th game too.

When creating units you must keep in mind that ini names must correspond wih eachother. That means dont make a typo or the game will crash!

I find its esier to rename the extension from .map/mpr to .ini. It's a little more clean that way
