nice job guys!
i like the idea of putting a clone skin on a dark trooper model. i wish i could hex edit since i have no idea how to get rid of things like e.g. jetpacks.
keep it up zero team!

Updated first post with a bit more info about the different maps. Also added what the protectors are (AI running around the map), the Target (kill him/her and win) and the General (unlockable after 6 points/1 life)

You really need to up the length or complexity of these, somewhat. I see that you have unlockable units in there, but honestly, each of these lasts maybe a minute - it's just "survive to find the target" and then "walk backwards and shoot." Maybe if you did something like having the target show up three times interspersed among waves of more-difficult enemies, or the target only shows up after a certain amount of enemy kills, or the target teleports somewhere else after it's taken a certain amount of damage - it's your call, of course, but right now the difficulty level and play-time is at a minimum.

Totally true. I tried to add things before, but when I added an Objective of destroying other person, or object, or whatever, it didn't work anymore. Scripting is just too complicated for me I guess..

Well Mande, I've made a lot of short campaign/mission/wave things for DS, so if you send me the scripts, a list of side/unit names and what you'd like to happen in each mission I can probably make some more complicated stuff for you.

While a more challenging and less popular idea, I think giving the target unit infinite stealth would be a nice idea.

I'm not sure that would be good for every mission, but that could be a great idea for one of the missions - it could be the target's special ability or something like that.

I took a break into life today, and really did some scripting-experimenting.. It worked out! It actually made sense now! Tantive IV is done, with some simple objectives. First post will be updated with the objectives

Can't wait to play the new Tantive IV!
