The Step-by-Step Guide to Cloning the Artillery Barrage (examples provided):[list] []Step 1: Clone all 3 Artillery Barrage Sciences in Science.ini. Be sure to give each Science a new name (a common mistake when cloning code) and change the PrerequisiteScience= values so that SCIENCE_GLA is present instead of SCIENCE_CHINA for the first level and that levels 2 and 3 refer to the new Sciences 1 level beneath them, or else your new Artillery Barrage clone will be inaccessable.[code]Science SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage1 PrerequisiteSciences = SCIENCE_GLA SCIENCE_Rank3 SciencePurchasePointCost = 1 IsGrantable = Yes DisplayName = SCIENCE:ChinaArtilleryBarrage Description = CONTROLBAR:ToolTipChinaScienceArtilleryBarrage End Science SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage2 PrerequisiteSciences = SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage1 SCIENCE_Rank3 SciencePurchasePointCost = 1 IsGrantable = Yes DisplayName = SCIENCE:ChinaArtilleryBarrage2 Description = CONTROLBAR:ToolTipChinaScienceArtilleryBarrage End Science SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage3 PrerequisiteSciences = SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage2 SCIENCE_Rank3 SciencePurchasePointCost = 1 IsGrantable = Yes DisplayName = SCIENCE:ChinaArtilleryBarrage3 Description = CONTROLBAR:ToolTipChinaScienceArtilleryBarrage End[/code] []Step 2: Clone the Artillery Barrage SpecialPower in SpecialPower.ini. Change the RequiredScience= value to refer to the level 1 version of your cloned Sciences. In addition, you will need to change the Enum= value to something used by a SpecialPower that was cut from Generals or ZH at some point. The Napalm Strike is a good example of this, so I'm going to copy SPECIAL_NAPALM_STRIKE from it for my new Artillery Barrage.[code]; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- SpecialPower SuperweaponGLAArtilleryBarrage Enum = SPECIAL_NAPALM_STRIKE ReloadTime = 300000 ; in milliseconds. min is 2x door/open close time!

AcademyClassify = ACT_SUPERPOWER ;Considered a powerful special power that a player could fire. Not for simpler unit based powers. End[/code] []Step 3: Clone all 3 Artillery Barrage OCL's (ObjectCreationLists) from ObjectCreationList.ini. Fortunately, no change is required beyond a simple name edit.[code]; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ; ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ObjectCreationList SUPERWEAPON_GLAArtilleryBarrage1 DeliverPayload Transport = ChinaArtilleryCannon FormationSize = 12 FormationSpacing = 1.0 StartAtPreferredHeight = Yes StartAtMaxSpeed = Yes MaxAttempts = 1 ;max attempts DeliveryDistance = 250 ;distance from target allowed to start/stop dropping.

(Notice a pattern here?) As before, substitute your new code name wherever there is a reference to the original Artillery Barrage.[code]CommandButton Command_PurchaseScienceGLAArtilleryBarrage1 Command = PURCHASE_SCIENCE Science = SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage1 ButtonImage = SSBarrage ButtonBorderType = UPGRADE ; Identifier for the User as to what kind of button this is End CommandButton Command_PurchaseScienceGLAArtilleryBarrage2 Command = PURCHASE_SCIENCE Science = SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage2 ButtonImage = SSBarrage2 ButtonBorderType = UPGRADE ; Identifier for the User as to what kind of button this is End CommandButton Command_PurchaseScienceGLAArtilleryBarrage3 Command = PURCHASE_SCIENCE Science = SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage3 ButtonImage = SSBarrage3 ButtonBorderType = UPGRADE ; Identifier for the User as to what kind of button this is End CommandButton Command_GLAArtilleryBarrage Command = SPECIAL_POWER SpecialPower = SuperweaponGLAArtilleryBarrage Options = NEED_SPECIAL_POWER_SCIENCE NEED_TARGET_POS CONTEXTMODE_COMMAND Science = SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage1 SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage2 SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage3 TextLabel = CONTROLBAR:ArtilleryBarrage ButtonImage = SSBarrage ButtonBorderType = ACTION ; Identifier for the User as to what kind of button this is DescriptLabel = CONTROLBAR:TooltipFireArtilleryBarrage RadiusCursorType = ARTILLERYBARRAGE InvalidCursorName = GenericInvalid End CommandButton Command_GLAArtilleryBarrageFromShortcut Command = SPECIAL_POWER_FROM_SHORTCUT SpecialPower = SuperweaponGLAArtilleryBarrage Options = NEED_SPECIAL_POWER_SCIENCE NEED_TARGET_POS CONTEXTMODE_COMMAND Science = SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage1 SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage2 SCIENCE_GLAArtilleryBarrage3 TextLabel = CONTROLBAR:NoHotKeyArtilleryBarrage ButtonImage = SSBarrage DescriptLabel = CONTROLBAR:TooltipFireArtilleryBarrage RadiusCursorType = ARTILLERYBARRAGE InvalidCursorName = GenericInvalid End[/code] []Step 5: With everything ready, now you can set up your shiny new CommandButtons to appear ingame by adding their names in the appropriate places in CommandSet.ini. First off comes the new purchasing buttons. They belong in SCIENCE_GLA_CommandSetRank3, and I recommend placing them in slots 13, 14, and 15.[code]CommandSet SCIENCE_GLA_CommandSetRank3 1 = Command_PurchaseScienceHijacker 4 = Command_PurchaseScienceRebelAmbush1 5 = Command_PurchaseScienceRebelAmbush2 6 = Command_PurchaseScienceRebelAmbush3 7 = Command_PurchaseScienceCashBounty1 8 = Command_PurchaseScienceCashBounty2 9 = Command_PurchaseScienceCashBounty3 10 = Command_PurchaseScienceEmergencyRepair1 11 = Command_PurchaseScienceEmergencyRepair2 12 = Command_PurchaseScienceEmergencyRepair3 13 = Command_PurchaseScienceGLAArtilleryBarrage1 14 = Command_PurchaseScienceGLAArtilleryBarrage2 15 = Command_PurchaseScienceGLAArtilleryBarrage3 END[/code]Next is the sidebar shortcut button, which goes in SpecialPowerShortcutGLA.[code]CommandSet SpecialPowerShortcutGLA 1 = Command_AmbushFromShortcut 2 = Command_EmergencyRepairFromShortcut 3 = Command_AnthraxBombFromShortcut 4 = Command_ScudStormFromShortcut 5 = Command_RadarVanScanFromShortcut 6 = Command_SneakAttackFromShortcut 7 = Command_GPSScramblerFromShortcut 8 = Command_GLAArtilleryBarrageFromShortcut END[/code]Finally, you should add the normal firing CommandButton the the GLA Command Center's CommandSet.[code]CommandSet GLACommandCenterCommandSet 1 = Command_ConstructGLAWorker 4 = Command_GPSScrambler 5 = Command_Ambush 6 = Command_EmergencyRepair 7 = Command_AnthraxBomb 8 = Command_SneakAttack 9 = Command_GLAArtilleryBarrage 13 = Command_SetRallyPoint 14 = Command_Sell End[/code]Remember that all 3 CommandSets already exist and should not be created anew. []Step 6: Now you'll need to edit the GLA Command Center itself so that it can support the new Artillery Barrage. Copying code that already works is the best way to do this, so search for "Object ChinaCommandCenter" in \Object\FactionBuilding.ini and then search for "ModuleTag_17". Copy the associated block of code (all 7 line's worth, the entire module) and then search for "Object GLACommandCenter". Scroll down to the end of that Object's code and paste your copied code slightly above the unindented "End" statement. Give your new module a name, because the fun part is about to begin. The module you just copied had several references to the original Artillery Barrage code, and you'll need to update all of them in order to have the new Artillery Barrage work properly ingame.[code]Object GLACommandCenter ...

End[/code] [*]Step 7: Test your new Artillery Strike ingame. Note that this guide will only give the new Artillery Strike to the default GLA faction. If you want any of the GLA generals to have this new ability as well, then you must repeat Steps 5 and 6 for each General. [/list]
