> > Stupidguardmode... if I remember right is for buildings with out a primary weapon. For some reason buildings like the power plant and weapons factory need to be set to true/yes. They need this because they are just plain buildings that just sit there and look pretty. But buildings like the coil and sentry gun dont need it because they have a weapon to target for them or they have another funtion like the airport or depot. It had something to do with the AI.

> heh, ok so I got a prob now, be4 I'm gonna check the weapon itself (I fixed me up a temporary weapon, copyed from the Maverick) I got this problem, if you don't select a target it will fire at the closest target in the field. Now I don't want it to do that, I want it to fire ONLY when a target is selected. Is this possible? And how?
two tags I can think of that can fix the problem
CanRetaliate=no; wont fire back when attacked
CanPassiveAquire=no ;wont pick up targets
