It depends on what you intend to use them for...as stock mission environmental structures (not placed by players or anything), you'll just need to make sure that the rest of the code handles them well (for example, stock RTS units are not going to recognize dif structures -at all-...they will pretend they aren't there, and won't be able to collide/stand on top of them or anything).

If you are thinking about using them as replacements for .dts for player placed buildings, that's an entirely different ball of wax, and an extremely difficult think to implement IMHO.

Mainly i just wanted to know if they will cause any crashes, although im trying to add some code to make them able to be placed while the game is running, like an alt to dts'es.
