Added a poll in order to give myself some insights.

Absolutely yes, since when maps have custom content, it makes them more interesting to play and are generally less generic looking and more fun since theres something new on the map.

The map/mission pack could be an add-on for the unitec mod as a seperate .rte and it will not work without the mod. So this way if someone wants to play unitec as mod-only and not worry about the missions loading up too, this would be the best way imo.

Also on on the PM you sent me: Yes sure, and btw you were the one that invented those brickships. I liked the idea and made my variation of it.
I guess I could do some more ships on new terrains and seperate .rtes, but I'm busy with a few other things right now, so that will have to wait a little.

Combine them. I'd definitely like to see Unitec Mercenary missions. If you decide to make another city map, I've found a much more detailed filter forge "city background" filter than the one you've already used: http://www.filterforge.com/filters/5016.html
Your base design is very good, but the scenes' sizes, combined with all the placed objects, can really cause lag on my system; it's nice to see you'll be adding some smaller maps as well. :)

Wowie! Thanks. I'll see how I can fit in that filter. Perhaps a separate layer with buildings on it. :)

Hey Gotcha, if you're concerned about having huge amounts of weapons in the buy menu, make them buyable = 0. Make separate gotcha.rtes with the option to keep guns buyable for certain missions and buyable = 0 for the other ones. That way you please everybody I guess.

@ppiksmada: Meh, I am not one to overcomplicate things; both for me and for other people.
The way the poll seems to be going I will just make my maps dependendable of my mod.
The mod loading time shouldn't be too much of an issue now. I've put the whole load of ini files into several key ini files and it's certainly much faster now. (Not surprisingly either, with computers having to open and close a zillion files when loading.)

@Foa: That's the general idea. :wink:

You absolutely MUST make a capital ship assault map, complete with prisoner rescue and reactor/weaponry sabotage objectives. Oh, and destructible gravity generators. If the last isn't possible, meh.
Perhaps an arctic mountain fortress assault as well.
