i think that all of us that had played the original game, remember the 
interference vehicle of Garthogs, the artillery unit of Sulleps (i don´t 
remember if Escalep also had it), the autorepair tank of Dribs and Darglans (in 
Darglans sure, not completely sure that Dribs had it), behemonth for humans 
races...

but, this tanks and vehicles couldn´t be development and built by all race... 
i´ll like to could research them and built them, although the cost and the 
research center needed will be enormous:

for example: 10 civil engineering, 9 AI, 11 computer, 12 military for the 
autorepair tank

what do you opined??

The problem is that there is no means to display their icon in the equipment 
screen. I made sure they are shown for aliens if you switch to them, but they 
never have 7 kinds of vehicles at the same time. DOS IG was a very limited in 
many sense and we are already stretching its bounds.

Radar jammer is there to disturb the player. AI would not be affected by that. 
Only place it could have is the multiplayer.

Setting research requirements is a tough problem. The higher they are, the more 
planets the user needs, which implies some strength level where these special 
units would not make much difference with or against behemots.

ok, it´s only a idea... a "premium" for skill player, to have some new special 
unit copied from defeated alien, xD

Radar jammer could do to AI that some unit don´t go to attack, and move to 
sites where don´t have enemies.

About icons... put a start and nothing more, only a name "Special Radar 
Jammer"... perhaps other problem its to get a space for all in the research and 
product screen... 

Perhaps for a IG3? ;)

I thought about Open-IG 1.5 to be a complete redesigned UI. But I still need to 
do 1.0
