Limit MAX Units on a single map

[Antares]

 

Hi guys,

 

Tried the search option.

Found some threads about it but without answers.

 

Is there a way to limit the units that you can build in a game?

 

Like this:

Name=Name:Sargardan War Wagon

Weight=3.5

Crusher=yes

Primary=ElectricBoltE

Soylent=2000

Category=AFV

DieSound=GenVehicleDie

IsTilter=yes

PipScale=Passengers

Strength=5000

Explosion=TWLT070,S_BANG48,S_BRNL58,S_CLSN58,S_TUMU60

Locomotor={4A582741-9839-11d1-B709-00A024DDAFD1}

Maxdebris=3

MoveSound=BattleFortressMoveStart

Secondary=OPCoilBolt

SizeLimit=15

TechLevel=10

VoiceMove=BattleFortressMove

BuildLimit=1

OpenTopped=yes

Passengers=50

UseOwnName=true

Accelerates=false

CrateGoodie=yes

OmniCrusher=yes

ThreatPosed=40

VoiceAttack=BattleFortressAttackCommand

VoiceSelect=BattleFortressSelect

 

 

I found this part in a .yrm file.

But i wonder if there is a easier way to see to change all of the units instead of typing this list.

 

Thanks.

Wait, you mean a global limit on all units? Not per type?

 

I know RA1 has that, but unfortunately it's not per house, so whoever spams the most units deprives the other players of the ability to build.

[Antares]

I meant a limit for each map, for every player, per unit.

 

Like max 10 rocketeers

Max 3 discs,

Max 3 kirovs.

 

It lags a lot if people keep building air units.

And it makes the game too easy.

You should be able to cap the max number of units by the BuildLimit= key. It is the only way to put a cap on the number of a single unit that can be made.

Dose something like

 

[Multi1]

MaxUnit=150

MaxInfantry=150

MaxBuilding=150

 

Not work in RA1? I never tested this but Max*****= are seen in the first few missions for both sides.

[Nyerguds]

Honestly no clue. I know that stuff doesn't work in C&C1; any maxunit stuff in there is just a defunct leftover of Dune II.

Just out of curiosity, is there a number of units that makes the engine crash? I know that SC1 has that (reachable with Overlords).

Dosen't work in RA1 as well at least for singleplayer mission. Don't see why they would for MP games as well.

It works for AIs in singleplayer RA, I've used it to limit the stupid amounts of infantry the enemies kept building for some reason.

They got that fixed later on.

 

But having a personal max on any unit.

I know it is possible with Tibed. Where is once put a max on every unit.

But I don't know if it would be supported in multiplayer. Would be cool though.

I fixed this issue of YR

 

I will post a small tutorial later in the evening.

Late reply, but how did they fix that? Is there a cap on the number of Overlords?

[X3M]

There is a total maximum of 1650 entities for all units for all players. This includes Overlords. This excludes structures.
