Hey, welcome to PPM!

You want to be able to reveal the shroud by defualt?

The only way would be to edit each map im afraid...

Unless, with the vote of others, i could add this option to HP...

Add the Satalite reveal superweapon to a building in beginning, I did this for my Screenshot taker side in TS.

The ETS MDK helps a lot.

Luke, you should make spy satellite logic in HP, I've just decided, you're doing it. #Tongue

Lol, its already in #Tongue

But i was thinking more of a Skirmish option, "Shroud", like the "Fog Of War" option

I actually think it might be possible to always have shroud disabled if you edit the shroud SHP (replace all frames with blank frames) an change MoveToShroud=no to yes for all units that have it.

Even if it works, you could sometimes have the problem that you can't shoot at a point because it's still under the shroud.
In addition i don't think that the game renders the units and stuff under shroud, so even if you can see the whole map, the enemy could be still invisible.

Good point, although I know that at least buildings under shroud are rendered since using certain custom remapable colors will make all biuldings covered by shroud visible (I had this experience with using any of the colors with an uneven number of the color patch).
