research for repair weapon purposes Options

[Lin Kuei Ominae]

I recently realised that my deployed units are still repairable with the modile repair vehicle. So i tried to make all other buildings repairable with this too, but without success. It seems that the UndeploysInto= key makes this possible.

The reason why i want this to be possible is either a unit or building that automatically repairs buildings and keeps the base intact, so you don't have to click every few seconds on a slightly damaged building.

The problem i encountered was, that buildings with UndeploysInto= can't be repaired or sold anymore. The repair/sell cursor just don't work on them.
And [IQ] RepairSell=0 isn't an option too, due to the auto sell.
And if i give a building a repair weapon, it only repairs when forced to fire and they don't stop when the building/unit is repaired.

So has anyone any experience in repair weapons, auto repairing buildings etc?

Seems to me like you explored all available options already, at least those i can think of. Maybe modding the .exe is the only option.

too bad. i don't want to wait for TSHypers patch.
However i found an exception in the deploysinto= behavior. The Conyard can deploy and still be repaired/sold, but it's not repairable with a unit. Is there something special hardcoded to this?
Another problem i encoutered with the conyard is, that if you can build one as a building and cancel the construction while building one, you get an IE.
