Unused Stuff

In mods but not in the game

Has anyone made a list or a post about what those other buildings and units in the Map Editor are/do? Additionally, what is a Controller? :huh:

Those other buildings and things in the map editor - the buildings are mostly static. The only two units you won't know that you can use are the Tripods and the AI. The tripods haven't got sound but at least they work. AI is a special unit. Check the guide on http://thenextgame.co.uk/

Controller is a squad weapon that was taken out just before release. You can, however, still use it. When used, the squad will launch normal grenade like weapons, but they do no damage. Instead, any DG nearby will turn blue and follow the squad around. Another interesting note: in the betas, it was possible for fully upgraded engineers to build bridges for transporting units. Bridges can still be constructed (change your game.txt file to give engineers five levels of research), though they do not seem to have any use.

Thanks for the info. I figured that that was what a Controller does. Are there any notable sites (besides thenextgame.co.uk) that have good mods?

Well, you could try looking at the Modding Forum over at forums.introversion.co.uk/darwinia/ -- hitm4n is trying to compile a list of all the mods that are out there.
