Will it still be possible too add the some of the scrapped units and models in WorldBuilder? (e.g. Centurion, Demo Track, etc.)
I know that they are scrapped for the sake of balance and other issues, but can you please put them in WorldBuilder? It's sad that the're getting scrapped but I still want to play them in the future when RotR is finished (btw, the moment RotR is finished, it would probably sadder than when development for Shockwave was finished.)

they get scrapped for a good many reasons.

Ontop of that just leaving them in the world builder creates alot of redundant code the game has to load but isn't used anywhere other than a few user made maps.

This was asked around....Every unit replacement, And the answer was; We'll see when we get to it.

Keep in mind things might change drasticly by the time of 2.0...
Like lets say raptors might have the damage type changed from jet missle to erm...Small arms, the development process is strange thats no dobut.Plus upgrade slots might be another issue but the best response to this is what I just said.We'll see by 2.0...I would personally love to have the old recon drop humvee back...

-Get rank 3 on the thing
-Eject the ranger inside leaving it unarmed...
-capture building
-Get back in and try to escape from a helicopter
-Get wrecked
-Enjoy the confusion of having a rank 3 pilot and a ranger when the thing blows up...Where did the pilot come from? Mirror illusion? Long lost twin brother? The goodness of his soul?

Yes, I understand that things would have drastically change by the time 2.0 is released. So please disregard my post. smile.gif
Although it really is hard to say goodbye to the Centurion..... Thank you for the answer smile.gif

Remember that all of those unused models can easily be added back-in via a map.ini file and a map.str file if you want. The code does not need to be left in the game.

Perhaps the source files could appear so keen tinkerers can manually re-add them at will?

Well, unless the models, textures, sounds and voices also get removed.

You can just extract them from previous versions.

To allow use of them, you can make an expand.big or something like that to be able to use them.

I was thinking, would it be possible to create a separate folder with all files scrapped units( codes,models, voices and stuff like that), that would be downloaded separetly from the game? Like someone above wrote, people who want them back could simply copy the code/files.
But even then, if SWR decided to do that, we'd still have to wait for the final version, when we know how the final units RoTR will use.
