The game looks for theater-specific art ALL the time. If theater-specific art is NOT found, the game will FALL BACK to using

"generic" art.

        </p><p>

Building names should begin with either G (Allied), N (Soviet) or C (Civilian) for RA2, and for Yuri's Revenge, Y (Yuri).

In Firestorm they had exclamation marks and asterisks, that could appear over some unit's heads, when something scripted happened. Typically

the animation was played at the same time that speech audio was played; this was so the player would know what unit was supposed to be doing

the talking. This logic exists in Red Alert2 and in Yuri's Revenge, but the talk bubble images do not.

If you have a heavy-duty unit dealing heavy-duty damage, it can be good to give the player some visual feedback that the weapon packs some

punch by making the unit that's getting hit rock back from the impact. Making this happen is easy. Here's some info that will help you

understand how the Rocker= property works, so you can get the effect you want.

<span class="txt_body3">RA2/YR: Facing Direction for Units: Quick Guide Compass</span><br>

<i>by Sypher_5 and CannisRabidus. Published: 3/29/03. Last update: 3/29/03.</i>

        </p><p>

A very simple thing that often stymies many Red Alert2 &amp; Yuri's Revenge mapmakers, is making pre-placed units face the

desired way. Facing direction is done by double-clicking on the unit, and on the dialog that results, selecting the proper

facing direction value. The Final Alert2 map editor then rotates the unit upon closing of the dialog.

<span class="txt_body3">RA2/YR Structures: What are they?<br>

    </span><i>by MooMan65. Published: 2/15/03. Last update: 3/10/03.</i>

        </p><p>

This tutorial describes the basic use of structures in the game, what the formatting of the files are that they use, and

most importantly, how to add them into your own game so you can use them. The INI code which supports these new structures

is not included here, and is beyond the scope of this article.
