That effectively makes the C4 units a *little* bit broken in Assault... I'd maybe make them un-C4able, but there just so happens to be a problem in the coding of WR that prevents me from doing this (don't ask).
Ok, I will make the Command Post uncaptureable in Assault modes. This means that only normal damage including C4 can kill it.
In Infiltration modes, the Command Posts will be immune to damage apart for C4 and capturing. Hope this is all good
Last question about modes: Survival mode. I haven't talked much about this. There is only one variant - Normal mode (for reasons that will be obvious as you read about it...). In Survival, you have no bases. Instead you must survive with your starting units, and a single "home unit". This is always one unit, and for the Allies it's the Chrono Ultima Tank, the Soviets have the Doomsday Devastator Tank, and Yuri has a modified Flying Fortress (much more armour, specifically). In a "Short Game", destroying the home unit results in that unit's army being instantly destroyed.
Amongst the normal WR starting units, Survival adds both IFVs and Railtanks, Reapers, Floating Fortresses (these are the 3 medium-level vehicles for each side, if you will, and they will only start with their owning side), and... Transport Attack Planes.
The question is about the Transport Attack Planes. It is essential that players have some kind of air transport, to help prevent stalemate situations where players just can't reach each other without the benefits a base could bring. This particular plane has an air-to-ground onboard Railgun as a weapon. Nothing particularly wrong there - it needs a weapon in the event that there is nothing but planes left over after a firefight. But the problem is that I cannot limit the starting planes to one - you sometimes have 3 or even 4 of them at the start of Survival mode.
I simply need to know if this sounds alright. it may be a little strange starting with a few transport planes...but it's all done for the mechanics of the game, so that this mode works. Sound Ok with you guys?
