Dawn of the Tiberium Age (DTA) is a stand-alone mod that combines Tiberian Dawn (C&C 95) and Red Alert. While classic mode gets as close to the original game-play and balance as possible, Enhanced mode provides improved game balance and a lot of fun new stuff. DTA features many customization options for Skirmish and multiplayer (where you can play as GDI, Nod, Allies and Soviet on over 200 maps), challenging original singleplayer missions, as well as co-op missions. Since this is a stand-alone mod, you don't require anything but the mod itself to be able to play: the original game is not required.

Description
Screenshot displaying the Soviet dog and Allied Mobile Flak Cannon, that were newly added in version 1.1345.
Why the Allies did not have the lures buildings , like Red Alert ?
I mean "like in Red Alert" .
There is no such logic for fake/decoy buildings.
We would have to find a workaround, so these fake buildings are clearly visible for the player who owns them but not for every other player.
The only way to do that could be by adding Ammo pips to the building, but then you would only notice a fake building once you select it.
In addition are the fakes no real strategical advantage imo.
Once the opponent managed to get close enough to destroy one of them, he surely is close enough to destroy your entire base.
But i think they will sooner or later be added to DTA, just to make DTA as similar as possible to RA1.
Except we find any big trouble/issues in adding them.
But why TD Tiberium refineries and GDI , Allies and Soviets weapons factory are turned in the wrong direction ?
Because the TS engine is hardcoded to make harvester dock only in southeast direction as well as warfactories being hardcoded to exit vehicles only in southeast direction.
Hardcoded = we modder can't change this aspect by editing the ini files and have to find a workaround to live with that.
The power plant smoke could be a little more subtle.
Honestly I would prefer to see the smoke gone all the way. Wasn't like that in Red Alert1. Or lesser fog. But that's just my opinion. Keep going. :)
