Hello, I am wondering how to create player controlled Tiberium harvesters, as I have seen on some maps, such as C&C_Mutationredux that you can use tiberium harvesters.
Is there some sort of required script for this?
Please help, as I would like to add player controlled harvesters to some of my maps.

You should be able to do it by deleating the Disable_Transisions script and adding transisions.

Or an easier way might be to just take the Mobile_Artillery_Player and change the model, name, armor or anything else Big Ups

I am almost able to do this serverside, the only problem is when your driving the harvester you have to touch every waypoint while driving or you will not be able to refill when you reach refinery. I have not tried everything yet though. Satisfied

Using the Mobile_Artillery thing is not particularly good. I've tested it on your (Kamuix) server and it just acts up weird. Furthermore, people will be able to steal the enemies' harvester and hide it somewhere in a base, so now the enemy doesn't get a credit flow. You could use different presets for the purchaseable ones and the AI one.

By the way Kamuix, could you remove the weapon from the Artillery/Harvester in your server? I remember someone using it to destroy an obelisk early in the game with just a few shots. (Maybe it wasn't the Harvester but who knows)

Lol, I actually did remove the weapon, it just does'nt work serverside for vehicles. I wonder is theirs some sort of Disable_Transision_Team script.

WOW, thanks for posting that Harvestors are player controlled on some maps! Im definatly getting that map. Big Grin

I think that it would be pretty cool if each individual player can buy his or her own harvesters, automated, or player controlled for extra money. I am eventually going to make a MOD.

Seriously people how can you fight a war on terrorism with all of your borders wide open!
