what what was it intended to do? you upgrade the factory and it will have a 50% boost on income, and a toxic truck every like 2 minutes? i cannot set relay point though.
and i find nowhere to dump them, they are pretty explosive, kinda like the dragon lord. just get close enough and let them blow up. i mean, that doesn't sound like a disadvantage if you ask me.

Lore wise Zeke pretty much explained the reason of the Toxic Truck. Gameplay wise it was suppose to offer a disadvantage and an advantage if microed well. The disadvantage is that for increased resource output from each factory you would gain a highly explosive truck once every couple of minutes that could serve as a deadly weapon if hit by enemies. However, you can use them yourself as a sort of demo truck, but that requires alot of micro since this one doesn't have a stealth ability. The main reason though is that it sounded a bit better on papper than it played in game, hence why this mechanic will no longer be part of DI ADF faction.

that'll do, i like the idea, seems to me the major problem is the toxic waste cannot be disposed properly.
