Christ... would it kill you to use some punctuation every once in a while? or a paragraph break? or even the occasional capital letter? As written, your post is quite difficult to follow... I'll do my best to answer your questions, but I am not entirely clear I even understand what it is that you have done and/or what you want to do.

Yes, that map exists. As the name implies, it is a sandbox map, i.e. a map where a developer (or modder) can play around with what is in the game and test ideas. The map was not intended to be a playable map.

I am confused. You set the game mode to domination and it ended up looking like a CtS map? What do you mean? When you try to play the map, are there statues that your DGs attempt to capture? In what way does it look like a CtS map?

That is a good place to start!

Tripods were originally a unit for Darwinia. They never worked properly, and were ultimately cut before release. However, the code for them was never removed, and they continue to haunt both Darwinia and Multiwinia (which is essentially Darwinia with some extra features for multiplayer). I would not recommend putting them into a level, as they don't work properly.

As you seem to note, there is no unit called laser troops which can be added to a map. Trying to add laser troops should cause the map to crash (best case scenario).
Blue1x wrote:but im just curious about why darwinia files are even in multiwinia
Multiwinia is built on the same source code as Darwinia. As I said above, it is basically Darwinia with some network code, better(?) DG AI, and code to make the multiplayer game modes possible. There are lots of little "easter eggs" still in the data and source files.

Tanks and tripods don't work. Don't add them. Otherwise, design the levels that you want. No one plays anymore, and there is essentially no mod support, so you are likely to be the only one who ever plays your maps. Don't bother trying to cater to the whims of a bunch of strangers on the internet, as most of them probably don't really care, anyway.
