Scavenger Mode

Post by Rikkay »

Scavenger mode - Like when you use cheats and debug mode to choose a team.

This could be when you are scavengers,
There could be a new unit... or can just use the basic unit to build structures.

If i remember correctly, on the PS1 version when i played as the scavengers - I could make their units but i cannot on this version. Could this be fixed? :P (I might be wrong and remembering incorrectly)

In this game mode, you can research only to a certain extent, but if you had an ally, E.G The new paradigm. They could transfer technology in a sector for your scavengers to equip their vehicles. Or minus that bit and fight against the ever-growing "project"

Or for modders - Make a scavenger sided campaign like.. "how it started" with them.

Might add more to this, please give your own ideas and/or add to it in the comments.

You could update rules.js to use the makeStructureAvailable() and other functions to allow you to build scav buildings/units.

That was already suggested, there were even some discussions about campaign prequel. ;-)

I always thought that T0 maps should start you with scavenger tech, then you have to research your way towards normal bases and units and then on to the more advanced stuff. It would be interesting to see skirmish/mp games start out with everyone being scavengers.
