                  Gonna check your code out, I'm really curious how you did it.
                  Good work man.

                    Hey DDDX,
                    Glad to hear you like it. 😉
                    If you want to Check it Out I recommend to Download the Development Version of the Commander Survival Kit on my GitHub Repository. This Version adds the new Command and Tactical Centers. These two new Tech 2 Structures generate additional Points for the Reinforcements and Fire Support Manager. They have thier own new Lobby Options as Well. So you could deactivate the Automatic Point Generation of the two Managers and Play Games with the two Centers only to get the Points for both Managers. The other Thing which this Version adds is the Naval Reinforcements Manager. So you can call Naval Reinforcements on the Map now. So I think this will give you more Interesting things to explore to improve your Mod as well. 😉 Both new Features will be included in the next upcoming official Version of the Commander Survival Kit. The new Units will be included in the official Standalone Unit Pack of this Project which is called Commander Survival Kit: Units (CSK Units). That means the new Units are Not included in the Commander Survival Kit with the two Managers. If you have any Questions or Suggestions let me know.
                    Stay tuned for more Updates.

                          Awesome work on those models. As for the undergroundground movement, I am very curious about it.
                          Mind if we take this to messages? I ask because you have a do not disturb turned on.

                                @cdrmv Sorry for the late reply. I meant the unit pack, but if you have a rough idea, the others too.

                                  If anything goes forward with the Development Progress we could see the first official Release of CSK Units in December this Year. However, there is still a chance that the release of the mod will be postponed next year.

                                  I just want to avoid releasing the mod unfinished. That's why I take my time in this regard to ensure that everything is functional, balanced and as qualitatively correct as possible.

                                  CSK Research will take more time in its Development so i don't have an Release Time Window for that so far. Similar like CSK Units the next Release of the Sim Mod Commander Survival Kit (Version 18) will probably coming this December or Next Year because it is depending on the Development of CSK Units. The Reason for this is few things of CSK Units will appear in the Reinforcements and Fire Support Manager as well.

                                    Hello everyone,
                                    it's time for an new Development Update of this Project.

                                    Since our last Update Report 9 new Units has been added into CSK Units:
                                    Lets check them out:

                                    'CMX-1700: Magnetar' - Cybran Experimental Magnet Defense
                                    A Defense Structure armed with an large Magnet.
                                    Inspired by the Cybran 'Magnetron' - Experimental Unit Magnet from Supcom 2
                                    It comes with two different Modes:

                                    Destruction Magnetfield Mode:
                                    c52ea311-ff9b-4f88-a2ae-5770308b37bb-image.png

                                    Stun Magnetfield Mode:
                                    a9468dcd-06b3-48eb-be3c-b70a6f76b217-image.png

                                    The Stun Magnetfield Mode uses the Stun Ray Shield which stuns enemy Land Units if they enter the Circle Fundament of this Structure The Destruction Magnetic Field Mode will Damage or Destroy enemy Land Units with its several Shredder Spinners if they enter the Circle Fundament of this Structure. Both Modes have their own Toggle Button but only one Mode can be used at the same time. So it is up to you which Mode you prefere more for this Structure. 😉 Additonally this Structure has access to the Automatic Reclaim System. So Wrecks from destroyed enemy or ally Units will be reclaimed automatically if there are located on its Fundament.

                                    'Comb Mark 1' - Cybran Tech 1 Light Vehicle Bunker

                                      Hello everyone,
                                      today I want to present you an small Development Update.
                                      Lets check it out. 😉

                                      The Aeon have get their first two Air Experimental Units in CSK Units today.

                                      'The Illuminate Companion - Experimental Flying Saucer
                                      This large Aeon Flying Saucer is basically an alternate Version of the Czar. It is armed with an instable Tendium Laser Beam Generator, which fires an Tendium Beam to the Ground. However the Generator unleashes an Instable Tendium Energy Projectile which creates an large Impact Explosion on the Ground Layer. Compared to the Czar this Flying Saucer is more larger in Scale and has an larger Hangar for Air Units.

                                      c456a8bb-efec-475b-a0f0-177123e2f8c3-image.png

                                      9ca08b32-0c79-4f7d-b493-56c4817dee50-image.png

                                      'Hathor ' - Experimental Bomber
                                      This large Bomber has access to two switchable Modes:

                                      Instable Tendium Mode:
                                      The Bomber drops an single Instable Tendium Projectile to the Target Area. The Projectile will cause an nice looking devastating Explosion. Some of you will probably know this Weapon as an callable Weapon Barrage for the Aeon in the SIM Mod Commander Survival Kit.
                                      d58bab86-0927-4e99-9e11-f750382a817c-image.png

                                      Carped Bombing Mode:
                                      If you press the Toggle Button to switch to this Mode. The Bomber will drop several Energy Projectiles which are used by the Aeon Salvation Experimental Rapid Fire Artillery from the Game itself.
                                      dcb282b9-574c-4c5b-af82-f7ae20cf89ed-image.png

                                      Keep in Mind the Switch Progress between both Modes will take a little bit until both Weapons will fire.

                                      All new Units are now available in Early Access on Github for Testing.
                                      They are included in the Mod: Commander Survival Kit Units.

                                      Looking forward for your Feedback.
                                      Stay tuned for more Updates. 😉

                                        @cdrmv several years back Domino created unit status icons. That could be displayed over a unit that received Veterancy, Damage-Over-Time, or other such effects. There's a whole bunch of icons and icon LOD's within DMS you could use.

                                          I really like the saucers!

                                          Reminds me of a project I was never able to finish that used CZAR like saucer with a tractor beam turret mounted at the center. It could tractor up any moble T1 -T3 unit, destroy it, then fire the corpse off as a projectile. The circumference of the saucer would fire off four snub fighters that were completely script controlled, and thus bound to the parent unit.

                                          Side note: This was a unit somewhere between a T3 an an experimental.

                                          While I sadly no longer have the files, the script for it was used to upgrade the Aeon colossus with similar capabilities. The snub fighters are used in 4DC's T3 Cybran faction.

                                            Well I didn't have played 4DC with DMS in the past. So I cannot tell anything about these Unit Status Icons. It Sounds Interesting to me so I will Check it Out. However CSK Units is Not focused on to add new or modify UI Elements of the Game so much compared to the Sim Mod: Commander Survival Kit. As I remember DMS was Not fully functional Ingame on my Side even with an correct Install. So I didn't understand what this Mod actually do in Detail.

                                            Glad to hear you like my Flying Saucers.
                                            There are few other Flying Saucers planned for the Aeon which will use an Tractor Beam as thier Main Weapon. So I will probably use your Unit Thrower for thier Tractor Beams.

                                            Next to of the Tractor Beam.
                                            I have an Concept for an another Gravity Weapon for the Aeon, which I will integrate into CSK Units soon. Its currently in Development so more information about it is coming soon.

                                            Regarding to your Black Hole Weapon:
                                            As already mentioned in my request, which I have send to you as an PM. I will integrate this Weapon into CSK Units soon as Well. However I will create an new Black Hole Effect to make it Look more spectacular. Do you still have the Code of the Black Hole which Changes/Alters the Terrian as well?
