[Bug] Unit/Super Weapons Side Bar: Limited amount
Hello,
this mod is very great & makes fun, thanks for this!
I play Skirmish and modified a map so I have all 4 sides from the beginning. Along with 4 Barracks & 4 Weapons Factories, adding Super Weapons and/or Air Units, not everything that's buildable appears. By selling some Production Buildings like the Barracks and rebuilding Runways or Helipads the Air Units appear buildable; same happens with Super Weapons that must appear but aren't shown.
So there must be a limit how much Units, along with Super Weapons, are shown.
I know that this situation normally never happens in "normal" play. QUICK_EDIT
Unfortunately, there is a fundamental limitation in the Tiberian Sun game engine where you can only have 75 icons in the sidebar at a time.
Extending the limit would take a lot of work. Considering the relatively little benefit - as you mentioned, you never need so many icons during normal gameplay - it is unlikely we will be spending the time to fix this in the future. _________________ CnCNet Client | CnCNet TS patches | More Quality-of-Life Improvements for RA Remastered
Yes, this mod makes very much fun! Thanks for the reply. I think it would be important to mention this on the mod page.
It could be possible to save some icons by presenting only 1 Minigunner (instead of 2), 1 Rifle Infantery (instead of 2), 1 Grenadier (instead of 2), 1 Rocket Soldier (instead of 4), 1 Flamethrower (instead of 2) if they do not have special abilities depending on the side. This would save 6 valuable slots. All other units do not have duplicates. QUICK_EDIT
