Sorry for simple question

Downloaded RTS the other day and have been playing with it, went through the whole makign it work with TGE 1.4 (one of the best how tos I've ever read btw) and now I have a simple question. I want to play around with adding vehicles/other units in to the map. Now I found gameConnection.cs where it has createplayer. I also copied all the car (for the buggy) info, scripts/data into the right folders. I tried adding a spawn for DefaultCar since I think that's how the car script labels it, but it didn't work. I am thinking I don't know how to go about this, I didn't change much code just added the one line under createplayer so far. anyhelp would be great thanks.

Just a note here... Vehicles dont show up when you are using the RTS-cam, afaik. It is an engine bug that needs fixing.

Well I've read all those posts and I'm sure there has to be some ways around that, but really I'm just trying to find all the places I have to add information to spawn a new different type of unit in game, I've been trying to find places other then gameConnection.cs and the individual units scripts that this information is made and used.
