While we're all here, how hard is it to insert a unit from one game, such as the RA1 supply truck, into the other? And have it be placeable in editor and playable/functional in game.
it appears units are hard coded into the remastered editor
Im not sure why the Truk doesn't appear in the TD remastered Its got the image files in the Meg files.
But it is not listed in the units in the meg files. I even tried just changing it into an ini and my game crashed.

Is there perhaps some way to use Visual Studio to add/enable the supply truck?

Well i did manage to stop the game from crashing, although it isn't visible , and had to manually enter it into the INI , because the editor doesn't know a Truk type
I added the truk to CNCBUILDABLES.XML and stuck that into my mods folder
user~/Documents/CnCRemastered/Mods/Tiberium Dawn/Data/XML/OBJECTS/UNITS/
and i didn't find the truk in the source code for TD although i found the demolition truck in RA source
I'm sure it could be added via the source code , but i don't have VS installed
I'm not sure where the supply truck was used in TD , i searched through all the General.Mix files and cant find any mention of truk other than it was used for a trigger name
although the images are in the TD textures .

It's looking more and more like I'll need to learn coding to get everything I want.
