RMS: disabling units?
Is there any way to disable specific units entirely in an RMS? Been searching but not coming up with anything conclusive.

If it has anything to do witha a custom scenario, its under options.

Random Map Script. Very, very little to do with a scenario.

You know those game modes like Coastal, Arena, Black Forest, Team Islands, etc etc etc? All of those are controlled by a Random Map Script. In this case OP is writing his own.

-------------------------------

Yes there are options, but they're not very pretty...

- Create your .rms script, go into the Scenario Editor, generate the map with the number of players you want, turn off the units you want disabled, then save as a scenario & run that. Of course, this means you can see the map before you start & could have done all sorts of other things with it....

- Disable the units entirely in the .dat. Not reccomended unless you're SP only.

-No, there is not.

-You could do what is suggested and disable the units by turning it into a scenario, but that defeats the purpose

-It is possible that the UserPatch 1.5 might allow it to be done within an RMS, but if so, that feature would not work in the HD Edition

Purely an SP concern, I don't play MP.

Can confirm that you can disable units/buildings on UP 1.5 with rms.

that can be easily abused in rated games if opponent doesn't know it

There is a warning if such triggers are being used, to avoid abuse.
