Terrain Expansion

The Terrain Expansion is a module of The Project mod development on C-GEN. The initial drive behind it was to add features from the original 3 RA2 terrain theatres to the new YR theatres. For example the desert theatre was lacking any high bridges, presumably because Westwood did not need them for their own missions and maps and time was a consideration. However as development progressed, further features were concieved of and added that greatly increased the scope of variation in maps made for YR.

Terrain Expansion Features

Here you will find an extensive list of features currently found in the terrain expansion. It is broken down per theatre as not all additions are present in all theatres for various reasons.

• Tunnel tiles now work and when set up in the FinalAlert editor correctly allow units to pass through them.
• Train tracks and switches for use with railway units.

• Coming soon - High track bridges for trains (requires Rock Patch v1.05 or higher to play maps with this feature)(This feature was disabled in the Rock Patch v1.08 due to problems with other bridges. Also it was added to TX v2.02a but was disabled until the Rock Patch fixes the problem.)
