To make vehicles, here's what I suggest :

- You could make a creature which looks like a Goliath (two metal legs, machinguns, missile launchers), a Tank, etc. and make them buyable during embark.

- Or you could make equipment for humans to make them look like a Goliath : Goliath breastplate, leggings, helmet ... which would cost a lot of minerals to produce and would be super heavy to make the soldier move slower. And then, give your soldier a rocket launcher or a machine gun. or a cannon if you want him to be a tank !

Modding question : can a factory create creatures ? If so, that would be much easier...

I've got a starcraft mod for 40d. It's good to see that someone continues the work for new versions, you're cool, sir! :)

I have full terran graphics (based on my old Fallout vault-dweller graphics) and graphic tiles for a larva and a zergling.

Spoiler: terran (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: FewZergs (click to show/hide)

Replace forests with different crystals (tiles and names).

Creatures I've made for 40d: Kwah-kai, Kal-taar, Bengalaas, Ragnasaur, Brontolith, Crab Beetle, Gashyrr wasp, Kakaru, Karak, Lava crab, Lombads, Ursadon, Scantid, Rhynadon.

I had graphics for those but I think I occasionally lost my work someday. :(

It may actually be easier to have each different workshop produce certain components, then mix-and-match them when 'building' to create the unit, like a tank or a goliath, ect. lol.

You can't make units in reactions. Only vermin.
