can this script be adjusted....???

CWR found a bug...or an opportunity? I left in the old B&G keg thrower follow the cannon script in some maps... and replacement taunt to re activate script... thought it was nifty to have the new replacement artillery man follow around the manned cannon...

anyway when the replacement dies first before the canon seems it can go blue...

so before I delete that part of the script and the part that has the game end when only a artillery piece is left...

any thoughts if the script could be easily altered for good :)
maybe have the replacement simply pick up the dropped cannon when the artillery unit dies... ?

here is the map action that is set for each cannon ...

if one does not learn from the failings of the past they are likely to suffer its return.

reading a text file of a script is pretty damn horrible, best way to fix a script is to read through it yourself line by line trying to understand exactly what you are trying to do
