A Design Request, Mutant Buildings Options

[Lin Kuei Ominae]

Hi

I want to make sometime in the near future some Mutant Buildings, since i think they come too short in TS.
So this request goes to all Artists here if they can draw me some Mutant Buildings.

Since TS has already some Mutant Infantry Units i would prefer Barracks first. But some other buildings are welcome too.
1. Mutant Barracks
2. War Factory, Radar, and some others. (btw i already have 2 Power Plants but if you have a cool one they could become three)

Due to the poor availability to add new sides, i would like them as the result of deployable units, so if you can also draw the deployer unit, it would be great (for barracks and warfactory only of course).
Oh and they should have some cool animations. I recently found out that even Barracks can have a dooranim like a warfactory so this should be really receive some attention, since no barrack ever had a dooranim.

That's a very nice design, Corsair

Having unmanned mammoths in there might not be good though..
I could imagine a player in frustration saying "Look, I've got 2 mammoth tanks in my garage, why can't I use em !?"

Maybe, dissassembled tanks would be better...

I also like the camo netting effect.. I think you could implement that in the game, making the building shp (or an anim since they overlap everything IIRC) extend over the bib a little, just enough to hide a small tank or something. Might be a pretty cool effect to use

Cool design, thanks.

As a warfactory i would recommend turning it 90°, so that the net is in the southwest and new units come out of it, there where now the 2 mammoths are placed. Because the exit point of warfactorys can't be changed afaik.
Since it's also possible to have the net transparent (with holes), so you can actually see the unit under it, it would give this a nice effect.
However the radar dish is a bit too much. I would remove this from the building.

And i really like the idea of the camouflage net. Maybe there could be a building only for this purpose too, so units can hide under this. Maybe with a 1x1 foundation covering a 3x3 field.
