Adding metal extractors doesnt work in cheat mode

When you use .cheat, and add metal extractors, they dont give you any metal, why is that?

Could that be fixed?

Would be much more easier to gain metal in metal maps when cheating...

What is the point when you can just .nocost

It pumps units too fast...

Huh? .cheat followed by ".give 1 arm_metal_extractor" (in XTA) on a metal patch/area doesn't spawn a zombie extractor, nor does .cheat followed by building one. What exactly are the steps to reproduce this?

mod BA47
map speed_ball_v2

Probably a map issue (the extractor radius does not appear to be set).

Is that in footprint or elmos?

I know I can .give mexes when testing my mods and they work fine.

elmos? wtf is that.

Hmm, weird, i tested in speedmetal map, and they worked fine.

Elmo is the spring coordinate unit. In OTA one unit was equal to one pixel but in Spring the zoom is no longer locked to the resolution so "pixel" no longer applies. We just call 'em elmos now.
