ParentCountry

Flag:	ParentCountry
File(s):	Maps
Values:	Strings: Normal text.
Applicable to:	Countries

In a singleplayer (mission) map, new Countries can be defined for the purposes of map scripting, but each country in the map file must belong to, or be associated with, a country that already exists in the game. Newly added Countries in maps must specify what Country they belong to, and thus what side. This will also determine which sidebar the country gets when played by a human, and which units are available to them.

Set the value to one of the countries from the [Countries] list in Rules(MD).ini.

Note

In RA2/YR specifically, singleplayer maps use Houses for such things as the Owner of pre-placed TechnoTypes like infantry or buildings, and therefore requires a new house be defined for each new country.
