  STARGATE - Stargate unit for Total Annihilation and Spring
Important: make sure you have UnitLimit=500 inside your totala.ini
- If unitlimit is lower, game will crash
- If unitlimit is higher, gates won't work for some players
Each gate must select an exit gate to be connected to.
That must be done manually, with the attack button:
- The out of range cursor should not be paid attention at. Click anyway, it'll work:
- If a gate is near the point clicked, then it connects to that gate.
- Otherwise, it can connect to the gate with the angle closest to the direction clicked.
Then the gate grabs nearby units. After a couple seconds they reappear at the exit gate.
If for whatever reason the teleportation fails, then the unit reappears at the entry gate. If there is something that blocks a gate, then units are held in the "stargate buffer" until the gate is cleared. There are two "stargate buffers" per gate, one for sent unit, one for received unit. Each buffer can hold only one unit. Also, having something stuck in the "sent" buffer will jam not only the sending of the entry gate but the exiting of the exit gate as well, as the exit script of the exit gate will be waiting for the unit to be transmitted. Well, in short, make sure all your gates stay clear if you want them to work.
Enemy units cannot teleport from your gate, but can teleport to your gate. If you don't want enemy units to pop out of your own gate, remember to close the iris with the on/off button.
This unit also works in Spring (64b1). However, there's a few changes in Spring:
- The attack cursor is rather picky. You have to click within the red radius, on a clear post, and may have to retry a few times before the dialing starts.
- In Spring scripts can't use units ID to determine ownerships, so all players units can use all players gates.
- Spring doesn't handle yardmaps, so the gate is impassable, so the script pushes the unit back and forth.
- While in TA the kawoosh is always oriented south, in Spring it is oriented toward the grabbed unit or the gate linked to.
See the .bos for more details. I added many #define to easily change the behavior of the gate, the unitlimit, the animation speed, etc... For instance you can toggle autoconnecting, trails of explosions, etc... by simply choosing TRUE or FALSE in the first lines of the scripts.

BULLDOZER
- One for the Arm, and one for the Core, these two bulldozers are great for clearing up all those annoying trees and wreckages. They don't deal any damage to live units, but can clear out graveyards and forests with ease. They are built in the advanced vehicle plant, and are actived by force attacking the ground. Once activated, they'll stay activated for 5 hours. Note that to render them more effective, they have been tweaked to happily run into obstacle, which may cause some pathfinding problem when the obstacle isn't clearable. Also, some third party units may be frozen for a full minute upon touching them. weapon ID used: 42. File Size: 198KB
