I played the first map with the crash site, and I love what happens when you capture the Scrin Ship and the truck with the mysterious building. Pretty cool stuff.
What did you do for the scrin unit (structure in this case) to dissapear from the sidebar once it's built?
WTF does the laugh crate do aside from making me to LOL?
Why did my GDI enemy have 2 kinds of harvesters?

-Huh?
-Bug with multiple refineries, iirc.

1. As Orac already mentioned, a negative BuildLimit (BuildLimit=-1 in this case). The GDI mammoth tanks use this as well, you can only build 5 of them in the entire match.

2. The laughing crate is just an "empty" crate, I added it because I removed all the negative crate bonuses. It is also meant to taunt you!

3. A hardcoded "bug" sometimes makes the GDI and Nod AI build one of these special harvesters. It only looks different, gameplay wise it's an exact copy of the GDI and Nod harvesters. They should never build more than one of them, and it doesn't happen always.
