RTS starter kit

Hi,
Hi I am working on an RTS project with a small team and i was wondering was do you get in the RTS starter kit. is it just a bunch of code or do you get a different version of the TGE world editor for building RTSs etc.

Also does any one know if it will work with TORQUE X.

thanks
mat

The RTS starter kit is the TGE containing C++ and script modifications allowing RTS game play. As mentioned on the product page, it has a new camera, mini-map, RTS unit, and more. As long as you and your other programmers are licensed owners, you can jump into this modified engine and further expand other RTS capabilities. I'm not the TorqueX expert, so I'll check that question to someone else.

Thanks. All though i run the project I have little part in the programing I cover the level building as well as manageing the rest of the project. I saw in the video on the product page a different version of the TGE world editor running so that's the main thing that intrests. me. the programer as a version of the RTS starter kit.

I just ran the video to double check, but the mission editor between TGE stock and the RTS pack are the same. The only differences are in the icons and appearance, but they have the same functionality.
