IT IS POSSIBLE! It all involves upgrades, you make a buidling (eg, helipad) and make it an upgrade, where units can dock at it. upgrade the helipad 4 times, and you can have 4 docking pads! Instead of having to by those upgrades, make them automaitically build on deploying the building. You can do the same with refineries (dont know how you would make the SHP). Good luck, and i hope this aids you in your modding! --------------------

However, i dont think TS supports that logic of different docking spots. Though iv never tried so im not really sure. But if TS did support that then you would think that you could just make a building that had say 4 dock spots on it so you wouldnt have to upgrade it anyways -------------------- My own Project: Tiberian Sun: Covert Operations Newest map releases: Yelcraz Island (2-3), Lake Istelv (2-4), Tiberian Ring (2-4), Moonlit Waters of Esvia (2), Imminitas Terra (2), Christmas in the Village (2), A City Consumed (2-4), Crescent Isle (2), Velillian Islands (2-4), FS Hell's Crevice (2), Island of Mercanf (2-3), Perseco Terra (2), Kalistia Crestlands (2) ...project re-genesis has begun...

And this is pretty cool, I like the helipad thing. If make the helipad a whole structure without the bib it could be that the aircraft are going underground to dock. --------------------

Upgrades become animations on placement, and making different units dock the same building is possible, just not at the same time. --------------------

Anyway, have you actually proven it? I'll try anyway on the weekend. --------------------

Gave the Turbine upgrades properties that allow aircraft to dock and reload with it too. Post up your code, I'll merge it into mine. see if that fixes my problem. --------------------
