Good news everyone! (that is if you care about more sides...)
I've managed to determine that all a 4th faction patch would require is certain tags to fix the AI. Going by what PD has told me, I've managed to get a Fully Functional 4th side added to my mod(for testing purposes). Only problem is when the AI uses it at all, theres instant IE on mission start.
it requires a 4th GUI(unless you set side= in the country header to be 1 of the existing sides), using Soviet/yuri style measurements(buttons are different size on the Allied GUI). but other than that, most of the functions you'd think are required to make it playable are fixed in 1 form or another.
Paradrop uses soviets, EVA is Yuri, no infantry at all from sold/destroyed buildings.
full report of my results(section 2B), and what i think adding a 4th faction(Section 6) would require are in the file, I've linked to it many times, so i can't be bothered to link to it again. (it would also probably require atleast 1 of PDs extra countries.)
Note: I've you've already looked at that list, look again, i seem to update it once every 12 hours or so... (Sections 2B and 6 are all you really have to look at.)
