Total Annihilation Shortcuts

I created this guide from the in-game help. Nice for printing out and better organized than other guides I've seen

Now can any1 tell me where to find the bloody maps folder??
I want to add a couple of new maps I DLed

[Saides]

@endrake in the skirmish setup screen where you see the max four factions/teams to play
type [SHIFT and 8] then immediately hit V if you want 5 factions playing
or X if u want 10 or III if you want 3 roman numerals applying here

TA needs to be updated. Security and an improve gameplay would be needed. Maybe the tech crew of Steam can help.

Thank you for this! There's also a command you can input at the skirmish screen that lets you play with a whole bunch of AI instead of just 3 other teams, though I forget what it is. Bbbob2280, what map are you trying to use? If you go to skirmish and select a premade map like Greenhaven, it should then take you to the screen where you pick how many AI you want to play against and assign teams.

Thanks!

My skirmish isn't giving me an enemy and I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game already. Can anyone help please?
