The pathfinding code and the networking will be interesting to look at.

  They have uploaded the pathfinding related code for Red Alert [1] and Tiberian Sun. 1. https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Remastered_Collection/blob/b190e877f700ca920cef214b2186418979d6589f/REDALERT/FINDPATH.CPP https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Remastered_Collection/...

  Explanation of RTs networking in that period: https://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/131503/1500_archers_on_a_288_network_.php https://www.gamasutra.com/view/feature/131503/1500_archers_o... I did a Python implementation here: https://github.com/eamonnmr/openlockstep https://github.com/eamonnmr/openlockstep

    Any bites? Anybody make a game with your tech?

      None yet, but I don't really blame them. As-is it uses TCP rather than UDP. Also, if you want to prototype an RTS you'd probably make a mod for Starcraft II - the air is, I think, well and truly sucked out of the room.

  With regard to pathfinding, there is this great video on some of their challenges at the time [1]. 1. https://youtu.be/S-VAL7Epn3o?t=414 https://youtu.be/S-VAL7Epn3o?t=414
