Tunnel system from generals

Is it possible to get a tunnel system into RA2: YR. What i mean is a system were unit goes in but can come out wherever.

That's not what he means, Crevio.

Unless the tunnels are pre-placed on a map, it's not possible.

@M7, he wants multiple tunnel entrances and exits that link together right?
he can build an extensive tunnel system with RA2 and YR. It's just very complex and complicated if you dont know what your doing. If done wrong your units will enter and never be seen again Laughing

I just gave him that link for the tunnel information down at the bottom of the post that will help him in understanding tunnel making.

thats not what he want. He want the GLA Tunnel system

Probably because modding Generals requires some skill while all you need for RA2 is basic knowledge of English & notepad...

Generals just needs English and a notepad. I used to think it was hard but it's really straightforward like YR. It just has a bazillion more INI files.

I can speak from experience now, Generals requires almost no skill to do basic mods. Almost everything in the inis is self-explanatory. (Albeit you might need some logical thinking a la software programmers)

At least the TS engine has parts that more or less require you to be smart to use.

Limitations from an old engine shouldn't be viewed as "require you to be smart to use."
:p

Sorry just having a random rant moment, I generally get the feeling that the IQ level of the average RA2 modder is lower then of a Gen one...

Saying that tho there are lots of very well made TS mods :/

I said nothing about limitations. I said being smart. Unlike Generals code, the TS engine is not idiot-proofed and self-explanatory. Some things plain and simply don't explain what it does unless you are either a veteran modder or one of the programmers.
