This would allow for many mods to add an element of random chance to combat, giving players the opportunity to take a risk, and also meaning that equal matchups don't have to be annihilation of both sides every time. | *Weapons to allow "stacking" on their 'damage=nn' tag, so that they could do variable (or random) damage.

Note: the following wishlist is now OBSOLETE, stored for archiving purposes only. |
- More Armor types
- Moving stuff like "OpenToppedRange/Damage/UrbanCombatRange/" and similar from [General] to each unit, and using the [General] entry only as defaults (Like [Jumpjet controls] is now)
- More V3 style missiles
- Drain logic (DrainWeapon=yes) to work with ranged weapons.
- Temporal weapons to work with cellspread.
- If possible a tag to have permanent mindcontrol like with Psychic Dominator.
- Engineers can't have working conventional weapons. Would be nice if they could. Vehicle Thieves have to force-move on their hijack target if they are an Engineer as well.
- Warheads other than Fire3 being able to be applied to animations properly
- More flexible Gattling logic
- ThirdWeapon
- New warhead immunities. (Just like ImmuneToPoison=yes/Poison=yes). For example: ImmuneToNewImmunity1=yes/NewImmunity1=yes
- Tag to make the unit/building immune to everything except the listed WeaponTypes
- Allow the use of less or more steps for the gattling logic. More or less weapons ...
- Have an AltInfDeath= entry on warheads that specifies the death anim to play when the infantry has NotHuman=yes. Currently such an infantry (mainly the animals) always dies with InfDeath=1 regardless of weapon that killed them.
- NextWeapon= tag that fires a weapon when the attack mission of the caller is finished
- ApplyTag= on warhead to create ultimate possibilities for weapons to work like IsLocomotor=, could be used to slow units down, to make them crushable and basically change everything in their coding
- Weapons to allow "stacking" on their 'damage=nn' tag, so that they could do variable (or random) damage. The game chooses one at random from the list each time the situation calls it to. For example, 'Damage=0,0,0,30,100' on a weapon would mean a 60% chance of a miss, 20% of a glancing hit, and 20% of a penetrating hit every time the weapon strikes a target. This would allow for many mods to add an element of random chance to combat, giving players the opportunity to take a risk, and also meaning that equal matchups don't have to be annihilation of both sides every time.

- SW that have range from the firing building (like the EMP had range restrictions in TS)
- I saw no area for this, but get some more mpmodesmd.ini editing. Like, new map filters like FILT001 and allow the new filters to be controlled in the rules and by making qualifications like Players= and Terrain=, you know, stuff like that.
- Re-enable the Charges= tag, it says it was disabled in favour of an animation controlled tag. This is annoying for those that can't do art coding very well, I think this would let the weapon charge w/o an anim, you could even add a ChargeReport= tag or something like that to control the charging sound. [Nighthawk200]
- A customizable ChronoSphere, e.g. you can specify in rulesmd what you want it to chrono (e.g. infantry, vehicles, aircraft, naval units) [Nighthawk200]
- A customizable Iron Curtain, e.g. same as above only Iron Curtain [Nighthawk200]
- Let any SuperWeapon have an iron curtain effect (invulnerability) [Nighthawk200]
- Enable the customisable Chronosphere (if made) to be able to let the modder specify whether it can chrono iron curtained units. [Nighthawk200]
- Enable sort of a 'Chrono Curtain' superweapon, e.g. chronoshifts then iron curtains when chronoshift complete (may be quite hard) [Nighthawk200]
- Make "PrismType" support more buildings [zhaihs]
- Psychic Dominator can effect and control building, use 2 warhead, now DominatorWH only killed unit[zhaihs]
- Different coloured Magna Beams [Nighthawk200]
Rejected:
- Allow unit to fire two weapons at the same time. Comment: you can just combine the two weapons to a single one. [- pd]
- 2-5 weapons in one click or in the Primary= or Secondary=. Comment: ??? same as ThirdWeapon I guess. [- pd]
- Ability to player control which weapon to attack with (Like in Generals) Comment: Negative. Not the feature itself is the problem, but YR's GUI would not allow this unless it was rebuilt entirely. [- pd]
- Copy OmniFire logic to be definable for individual weapons instead of units. Comment: I can't see any situation in which this would be necessary. in the end it's the same effect, isn't it? [- pd]

- New Laser Weapon (allow define color,degree,width) [zhaihs] Comment: Don't go into detail too much... [- pd]
- New sonic Weapon [zhaihs] Comment: again... would you please make clear what you actually want?
