Spring RTS Engine

f you're talking about unit class (air, sea, land, building, hover, othercrap) then it is a subcatagory of class restricting...

I was talking about both - currently you can disable a particular unit in the lobby but i haven't seen any options to have a numerical limit on each one.
Categories could even be convenient for quickly setting up limits rather than clicking each unit.

I hope the metal and energy sliders get killed or at least disabled by default... Just use the commander's storage values.

They were in OTA, so it's unlikely. What it needs is the option to save and load presets...

"It was in OTA" is not a sufficient reason to not axe them.

Hence we see the impending rational behind the OSRTS project.

Back to the original topic:

This would allow for the creation of several new types of gameplay.

I think a more useful fbi tag would be one where you specify the amount that is counted towards the unit limit for each instance of that unit. E.g. CountTowardUnitLimit=10 would add 10 to the unit limit for each unit. As well as satisfying your needs (CountTowardUnitLimit=0), it would also open up a lot of different opportunities in the future.
