command and cocker

Hey how bout another MCV, but its not a starting unit, its just buildable. It creates a construction yard capable of making builders, scouts, and creating buildings with a nanobeam turret. Or it just becomes a secondary command.

Hey, this'll definitely make for an interesting game.

I definitely enjoy the concept of this - makes for more static but capable bases rather than legions of builders running around all over the place.

However, keeping a weapon on the deployed MCV is... buggy. For one, the range shown when the MCV is selected refers to the weapon, not its build range, so knowing exactly how far out it can build is guesswork. For another, it often gets confused when being attacked amid building, as it stops building but doesn't attack, and manual input is required to get it to fire at enemies.

I made a copy of the MCV and deployed MCV to my personal mod folder and tweaked it some - mainly removing its weapon and adding other custom mod stuff to its build queue. Taking away the weapon works wonders. It won't get confused with building/repairing while under attack, and the range indicator now shows how far out its builder/repairer can reach.

Wow thanks, that was quick!

The command center should work the same as the default one in this mod.

Sure, I'll upload it in a sec

Could you make a mod with only the MCV buildable from the T2 land factory, without modifications for the other units?

My lil boi its growing up

Yep, the nuke launcher was missing from the command center build list. I added it back and it builds correctly now. Thanks for pointing that out!

Yeah, I must have missed it somewhere. I'll check it out.

Nice, seems to work well, I'll have to try it out in multiplayer. I did notice that the nuke launcher was missing, was that a mistake?
