Will it ever be possible to sell wehicles in this game, juts like it was possible in Tiberian dawn? I know that many people could start stealing team wehicles and selling them for their own gain, but still... That would not be a big problem, because you still have to guard your wehicle or else someone will steal it, and when you sell wehicle, you will stil only get 75%(or less, depending on how the wehicle is damaged) of its original cost. Does the game engine allow for wehicles to be sold? It should. And also, it really pisses me off when I have some expensive character, and by mistake I buy engineer (or anything that is basically free) and I loose lots of money, or when I defend a building that needs to be repaired, and I have to get rid of my expensive character just to buy hotwire/technicaian(or what is it called), and loose much of my hard earned money. It should be like this: you buy for example Sakura for 1000, and then you buy black hand for 400, 75% of those 1000 for sakura(750) minus 400 will be returned to your money, so you will earn 350. I think that this is a good idea, but It should have some restrictions, so this would work only of you go from more expensive character to cheaper character. Of couse this would work only for the characters that require Hand/barracks. I think that this is a good idea, and should be used(if it is possible fo couse) in at least some of the maps. Or it could be modified......

If I remember correctly you couldn't sell vehicles in TD, only buildings.
But the idea it self isn't that bad. It would be very handy for changing infantry classes. But for vehicles well I don't know how this can work correct.
Size doesn't matter.

You could also sell infantry with a little exploit in TD - build a sandbag wall, and put your infantry just to the side of it. Switch to "sell" mode and hold the cursor over the sandbag. Then move slowly to the side where your infantry is. When the sell cursor is over the infantry, click and they're sold!

On selling vehicles - you could make a little garage-type building where you drive the vehicle into, the vehicle gets sold, you get 75% or whatever of the money back, and you appear right outside the sell pad or some practical place. But here's the thing - only you or people on the other team could sell your vehicle. This would put an end to teamates who would steal your vehicle and sell it for their gain. But if someone on the other team gets it, they've earned it, right? I've never seen anyone on GDI yell "TANK STEALER" in a renegade game where a stealth black hand stole their tank. Just an idea.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)

Yeah, If I remember correctly, that happened to me once, and I was like: WTF just happened?
well, too bad you can't sell infantry in any of the C&C games..... I know that you would not get much money for it, but still.....
