How to copy a unit [TS]

[Tore]

This tutorial will help you copy a unit.

 

Open your rules.ini file.

 

Find the unit you want to copy by using the search function in notepad. In this tutorial we will use the GDI titan as an example.

 

1. Search for the Titan by typing MMCH or Titan.

2. Copy and paste the unit details under the original Titan or somewhere on the unit list.

 

This is how the copied Titan code should look like:

 

; Medium Mech
[MMCH]
Name=Titan
WalkRate=2
Image=MMCH
Prerequisite=GAWEAP
Primary=120mm
Strength=400
Category=AFV
Armor=heavy
Turret=yes
IsTilter=no
TargetLaser=yes
TooBigToFitUnderBridge=true
TechLevel=3
Sight=8
Speed=4
CrateGoodie=yes
Crusher=yes
Owner=GDI
Cost=800
Points=25
ROT=5
Explosion=TWLT070,S_BANG48,S_BRNL58,S_CLSN58,S_TUMU60
VoiceSelect=25-I000,25-I002,25-I004,25-I006
VoiceMove=25-I012,25-I014,25-I016,25-I018,25-I022
VoiceAttack=25-I014,25-I022,25-I024,25-I026
VoiceFeedback=
MaxDebris=4
Locomotor={55D141B8-DB94-11d1-AC98-006008055BB5}
MovementZone=Destroyer
ThreatPosed=40	; This value MUST be 0 for all building addons
DamageParticleSystems=SparkSys,SmallGreySSys
DamageSmokeOffset=100, 100, 275
Weight=3.5
EliteAbilities=SENSORS
Accelerates=false
ZFudgeColumn=8
ZFudgeTunnel=13

 

3. Now add Image=MMCH to the code, and rename [MMCH] to something else like [CMMCH].

 

; Copied Medium Mech
[CMMCH] ; Rename to what ever you want but keep the "[]".
Image=MMCH
Name=Copyed Titan ; Rename to what ever you want
WalkRate=2
Image=MMCH
Prerequisite=GAWEAP, GATECH
Primary=120mm
Strength=400
Category=AFV
Armor=heavy
Turret=yes
IsTilter=no
TargetLaser=yes
TooBigToFitUnderBridge=true
TechLevel=3
Sight=8
Speed=4
CrateGoodie=yes
Crusher=yes
Owner=GDI
Cost=800
Points=25
ROT=5
Explosion=TWLT070,S_BANG48,S_BRNL58,S_CLSN58,S_TUMU60
VoiceSelect=25-I000,25-I002,25-I004,25-I006
VoiceMove=25-I012,25-I014,25-I016,25-I018,25-I022
VoiceAttack=25-I014,25-I022,25-I024,25-I026
VoiceFeedback=
MaxDebris=4
Locomotor={55D141B8-DB94-11d1-AC98-006008055BB5}
MovementZone=Destroyer
ThreatPosed=40	; This value MUST be 0 for all building addons
DamageParticleSystems=SparkSys,SmallGreySSys
DamageSmokeOffset=100, 100, 275
Weight=3.5
EliteAbilities=SENSORS
Accelerates=false
ZFudgeColumn=8
ZFudgeTunnel=13

 

4. Change anything you want on the unit, but make sure its valid.

 

5. Find [VehicleTypes] and add 51=CMMCH (or what ever you use.) at the bottom of the list.

 

6.  Congratulations! You have copied your first unit! Repeat this on all the units you want to copy. But remember infantry must be under [infantryTypes], Tanks cars etc must be under [VehicleTypes], buildings must be under [buildingTypes], Aircraft must be under [AircraftTypes],  terrain objects must be under [TerrainTypes] etc. I think you understand what I mean if not, reply to this tutorial!

 

Enjoy coping units in TS!
