Spring RTS Engine

I just wanted to ask the devs that has been here for a long time:
Who was first in implementing area commands (reclaim etc):
Spring, this one SupCom mod or maby some 3rd party?
I would really like to know that :)

Spring.

The oldest source files under version control are dated to May 2005 and already contain code for area repair/reclaim/load/attack/etc. Those correspond to Spring 0.41 which preceded SupCom by two years.

And just in case you're wondering, the same is true for megazoom.

Nope!
Total War Shogun was the RTS first with megazoom!

Megazoom was not a virgin? Now i feel used. Widgetporn whill scroll this up..

Spring had pretty free 3D camera but was the part about megazoom where the units turn into icons not inspired by a SupCom pre-release video?
At least here it is called "SUPCOMSTYLEZOOMTHING" http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?p=91525#p91525

Man, where we a band of freaks back then. Cadyr was still around.

-and then that guy came out of nowhere- christ tailor or something was the name. Said he would make us big, make us famous - took the game, made screenshots, and basically made a 2d Version- travelled, sold it, called it Total Annhilation. True Story.
