Questions about mind control

1) Is it possible to remove the line between mind controller and mind controlled units?

2) Is it possible to be unable to pick and order mind controller units instead setting up them constantly attacking their former owners?

Can the mind controlling lines be removed via permanent mind control similar as Psychic Dominator if it is possible to use this weapon with units?

Permananet Mind Control does not draw lines between the controller and the victim, so it would work in Ares where you can use permanent mind control warheads.

Any way to make Yuri prime to control anything including heroes and robotic units similar as how some units are uncrushable but b.fortress still can crush them?

Take off ImmuneToPsionics, and, using ARES, give all not Mind-Controllable units custom armour which the regular Mind Control weapon can't target.

Battle fortress uses OmniCrusher=yes instead of the normal Crusher=yes to crush Crushable=no and OmniCrushResistant=no units, this is an independent logic.

How can I launch and use ARES? I've downloaded and extracted the latest version into YR folder.

dbl-click RunAres.bat

Read the Ares documentation and make changes to the INIs as you want.

I can't execute gamemd.exe. My version is 1.001 both gamemd and syringe are in same compatibilities.

I've tried to use some ares features by editing rulesmd too but didn't work like for example:

[Controller];Mind control warhead. Will skip normal damage like EMP did
Verses=100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,100%,0%,0%,0%,100%,100%
MindControl=yes
MindControl.Permanent=yes
AnimList=YURICNTL

When the game launches via RunAres.bat, do you see Ares mentioned anywhere?

Usually, Ares [Ares version] is written in the bottom right in the main menu.

If you do not see Ares mentioned anywhere, then the problem is with your YR EXE, and the question becomes "where did you get it from?"

When I try to execute runares.bat, a black screen comes up then disappear within seconds.

Syringe interior or exterior command, can be operable file or it doesn't recognized as bat.

You either need to patch (an original legitimate copy of) YR to v1.001, or you are missing the Microsoft runtime files (a link to them is in the Ares readme).
