Tired of the Power Turbine's exploit?, I have the solution Options

[Machine]

Well here you have a very small edit; all the power turbines toghether.
This will minimize the exploit of upgrading the GDI power plants 1 level and when damaged, upgrading it again, to refill the hitpoints of it

I would appreciate a small credit if used in your mod.

I've never had any problem with that exploit... The only thing I got tired of was building the upgrades (which is why I never build them in the first place ).

It's a good idea (I always preferred just building an advanced power plant over having to build upgrades), but you should be able to get a power plant that already has all it's upgrades by only using existing SHP.

Well, I just wanted to upgrade the powerplant once, not making an advanced one, and yeah I'm too lazzy to upgrade all powerplants twice, so I made this to upgrade them just once

That's a pretty good idea actually... If you insist on GDI keeping their unique 'ability' to upgrade buildings. If it was up to me (and I was focusing mainly on gameplay), I'd just get rid of all that upgradeable stuff all together though (and let component towers be build with whatever turret you want on it right away and have a normal and advanced GDI power plant)
