Default: no
Applicable to: InfantryTypes



Specifies whether or not this InfantryType can enter an enemy VehicleType and capture it in a similar manner to an Template:TTL capturing a BuildingType. Also referred to as 'hijacking'.

In Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge, the InfantryType must also have Template:TTL set otherwise it will get the 'enter' cursor on the target VehicleType but will not, in fact, be able to enter it. Template:TTL also allows the InfantryType to enter enemy ore refineries, so the InfantryType also needs to be given Template:TTL and Template:TTL (giving it full Red Alert 2 Spy capabilities), or Template:TTL

Template:TTL set on a VehicleType prevents a Template:TTL from capturing it, however this also invokes additional, possibly undesirable logic.

If Template:TTL is set on an InfantryType then that InfantryType will be unable to enter guard mode. For example, setting Template:TTL on an Attack Dog will prevent the Attack Dog from detecting and attacking disguised enemy units automatically.
