I was just thinking how nice it would be if mappers could control whether or not weapons such as artillary or nukes could be researched or not. My idea (helped along a little by hellion) was to have tech levels like in the cnc games. I'm not quite sure which specific researches would be put into each, but i'm sure we could figure something out. And even if you don't think tech levels would be nice, just something to control what is researchable would be nice. Hell, even just something to take out arty and nuke research would be nice.
MmmmMmm.... This could be quite interesting, so reading the back story of each map could actualy help you since you know what is restrictred and what to go for right of the bat...
Could also provide a reasonable explanation why aircraft aren't avalable on maps that were made before their implementation
Solokiller already proposed an entity that would restrict various technologies. The topic is somewhere here.
:D And I agreed with that one too. I still think it's a great idea and should be implemented as soon as it does no longer hinder the coming of the airplanes.
