So, I've been thinking of a few things to mod.

And I would like anyone's opinion on the possibility of it, and the
Level of Difficulty it'd be.

So here goes.

1. I'd like to add a sorta new stealth system, As if a Unit goes into tree's or some sort of shrubbery then they can be stealthed, but if something gets close enough they unstealth.

Pretty sure that'd be dang hard. but yeah, Just asking if its possible.

2. I want to make it so that tanks, when hit from the front have a greater armor than from the back or sides. such as the marauder tank would take a lot less damage from the front, But alot more from the back or sides.

3. This one has to do with the second kinda, So if it was a tough tank like a crusader, And a scorpion was shooting the tank, Could it be possible for the shell to bounce, or do no damage. Since its a way smaller tank shooting a way more advanced tank.


Anyways that's about it, I've just been adding more realism for me and my friends and I was wondering if these were possible.

Thanks! buh bye.

Seem like well balanced abilities.

1) Camouflage Netting.
2 and 3) Round these up into one unit....

In the best interests of in-game balances' play-down a couple other abilities it has,, be it you, yourself come up against One!

1. Not that I know of.
2. The Marauder HAS THAT PROPERTY? Where does it say in code? If it does, then just apply it to the rest of the tanks you want to mod.

3. There's no visual way of indicating a shell has bounced off a tank. But I guess, if you get creative with DeathBehaviors and FX, I guess.

Also, just make an armor resistant to the attacking weapon.
ScorpionTankGun is ARMOR_PIERCING damage type, so its meant to be effective against other tanks, its just that its a lower damage than say the Crusader's and Battlemaster's weapon which they too have ARMOR_PIERCING damage type.
You can change the ScorpionTankGun's damage type to something like SMALL_ARMS, but then again it makes it even worthless as an MBT. Or maybe use the SURRENDER damage type, as its unused and units(not all, I think) use DEFAULT damage filter and you can just make it so that the receiving Armor is resistant to that.

Uh well no, I just used the marauder tank as an example of a unit that I wanted this to be with.

Since you know, It looks like a tank destroyer kinda.
But would it be possible?
