Random Leader in Open Play Function

[chantilly]

So there I was, cleaning the other day and stumbled upon my old CWBR disc. Because I haven't fired it up since my last RAM upgrade, I tried it out and was amazed at how far the mods for TC2M have come since the original CWBR.
But there was a function in the original CWBR Open Play that I dearly miss..... the option of choosing "Random" when selecting a leader when choosing an open play game. I think ADukes told me a long time ago that that function was lost when the game engine was tweaked for TC2M.
So Norb, I'm wondering if you could toss that bit of code back into the current engine ? It sure was fun to just choose a side of any OOB , not knowing if you would command a brigade, division, corps, single battery, or even some cavalry, until the game actually finishes loading.

I never knew that.

Man, that would be a great option!

The random function is available in TC2M too. It's the button with the 3 arrows on it.
What doesn't work in TC2M is the leader selection for scenarios with both sides available.

I think it was full random, random everything. But I believe that random leader would be pretty cool. You would not know who you were playing until the level loaded.

It would also be cool for MP, not knowing who you or anyone else was playing until the level loaded.
