Post Saving base configurations in skirmish
I have a base design i've been perfecting ever since the unitech biggest base came out. it uses the unitech mod and a few others like a buy order teleporter and death counters.

only problem is that it really slows down the time it takes to play the game because there are a bunch of details and stuff i make.

I bet i'm not the only one with this problem. base building can be incredibly rewarding but almost as equally as tedious. i'm betting the majority of people still play skirmish mode.



plus this is something everyone has wanted for ages.

it's already present in campaign mode, so the ability to save bases, even skirmish games, is already in CC.

One work-around is to divide your base into macro sections and mod those into a premade module. Thus its not so tedious and you can get the same result anywhere :lol:
I, too, love base building and found fabricating on the fly the better option.

Just note that originally the scene editor is for this very reason. The mod idea was posed first it is very versatile and rewarding when the extra effort is applied.

can someone please make a mod or something that enables bases built in endless skirmish to be saved at least?

I want to add this as a feature - optional save of the base when you're done editing it; it's on the todo list

That'd be much appreciated, Data
In the meantime I've taking to using the scene editor to just make the base how I want it, save, go to the .ini it created and give it a location on the world map - it seems to default to 0,0 for whatever reason. [The LocationOnPlanet lines, right at the top of the .ini for the new scene]

I think ~-70, 90 will put it top right of that bay-ish area[bottom left] on the world planet
