Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge - Tech Buildings

Tech buildings are neutral structures that some maps have them. They belong to no one until someone captures them with one engineer. They can give some really valuable bonuses and may play a significant role throughout a game.
Overall there are 7 tech structures. Four of them are available in Red Alert 2 while extra three were added in YR. The hospital has also been changed in YR. The tech structures are:
1. Airport
2. Oil Derricks
3. Outposts
4. Hospital
5. Power Plant
6. Machine Shop
7. Secret Lab
All of their functions are described in the video.

Send infantry to hospital Eva : unit repaired. Infantry isn't a vehicle Eva!!

eva is not some kind of artificial intelligence CDNM!

Weird, I heard Eva said "Unit prepared". If you listen closely it can sometimes sounds like "Unit repaired" too.

In RA2 you can have infinite Yuri Prime if you have Cloning Vats and a Hospital. When the previously damaged unit comes out from the hospital, it will be cloned at the same time. :D

[@tsiripas]

Interesting!

[@richardshelley143]

Not sure whether this was mentioned in the comments. You missed one thing with the Airport. If you infiltrate a barracks with a spy, that bonus carries over to the Paradrop

[@Marlonbc90]

There is. Just look for the Yuri's revenge discord channel and the CnCnet discord channel. It's not 100k people or anything huge, but there are enough people that you can comfortably play games online every day, you don't have to to queue for minutes. They make video, share content, organize little tournaments with price money and so on. Definitely pretty active for an almost 20 years old game

Your videos are greatly done and informative, not to mention that they have been improving since the Apocalypse Tank video. Hard to believe that you're the same one who made those Doom 3 ROE analysis videos, and I haven't watched those in ages. Anyways, my favorite tech structures are Oil Derricks, Hospital, and Machine Shop. Also plays a great role in one of my all-time favorite maps in RA2 Yuri's Revenge. Bay of Pigs.

[@tsiripas]

I was a newbie back then when I was making Doom3 videos. But watching them now they are actually well made. My only concern is that I was playing on low quality. :(

[@KILAH4716]

One extra helpful gimmick about the Repair Outpost is that it can repair vehicles for free as opposed to the Service Depots of Allies and Soviets, and Naval Ports of all 3 factions (for Robot Tanks and Amphibious Transports). Dolphins and Squids are affected by the Hospital. As for the double repair and healing thing, I want to believe you, but I can't. Can you do a side-by-side split-screen comparison, one with 1 Hospital/Machine Shop, one with 2, and one with none?

[@mjc0961]

spoiler: no hospital/machine shop = no healing.

Multiple hospitals and machine shops heal faster? I had no idea, are you sure this works? Is there a cap to heal rate?

[@PixolScoot]

Infantry heals 20hp per Hospital every 50 frames and Vehicles heals 5hp per Machine Shop every 75 frames. There is no cap on heal rate.

[@shadiafifi54]

One minor addition to the Hospital one: if you capture a hospital and have a Cloning Vat, any unit healed at the hospital gets a free clone at the vats. That was a weird bug I found during a skirmish game. For some reason, it considers any unit leaving a hospital as being 'trained', so produces a corresponding clone at the Cloning Vats.

Where were you when RA2 first launched? This is a good tutorial for the upcoming remake 😉

[@Marlonbc90]

They are not remaking RA2 yet I don't think. Am I missing something? They announced the remake if other 2 games in the C&C series, but not RA2. I'm sure they will get to it if the other remakes do well, but it's not official

[@CnCDune]

@@Marlonbc90 We're getting a remaster for C&C95 and RA1. But who knows, maybe that'll lead to a TS and RA2 remaster. If that happens, tg's videos would become a gold mine.

[@froireier]

"Multiple hospitals will provide better healing." Shit I didn't know that.

[@Kiwijr2579]

You forgot to mention that there's a limit of how many units you can get with special labs. I think only three. Capturing more Secret Labs beyond that won't grant you anything.

[@CnCDune]

The only limit that exists is that you can't have more labs on the map than there are boons, else there are no boons at all. Vanilla has 8 boons total, I believe.

S.: Just to sate my curiosity, what is left to test and will you test psi-units(Mastermind, Yuri clone, Yuri Prime, Psi commando)?

No units left to test unfortunately. Those are hard to test and not much to show but I'll see what I can do. Currently working on random stuff. Next video will probably be about unit statistics.

not that bug, he would have at least show bugs that have been fixed to prevent abuse.. like the tech hospital glitch where infantry without veterancy entering a hospital after stolen enemy wf tech would be promoted, or if you have a cloning vat, a new infantry comes out from there for free.

[@tsiripas]

Yes it works for multiple hospitals as well!

[@AzureSkyCiel]

hospitals and airports were good to me when combined with American Allied subfaction. Spam dozens of GIs at a time, they self-heal and as they promote up to elite rank they become nigh unkillable and eventually I end up with dozens of those, especially if they were able to camp in garrison buildings long enough to minimize losses

[@wuorson5111]

In yr, capturing a hospital also allows dolphins to auto heal

[@ahha6304]

Ain't that in YR they have both Old Hospital that you have to fill in and Hospital that heals automatically?

The logic from RA2 was re-worked in YR. You can't send infantry into Hospitals.

[@Antimanele104]

Dolphins and squids, despite being organic creatures and thus, being healed by the hospital tech building, can also be "repaired" by the naval yard.

Although Secret lab randomly gives you unit in Skirmish, RA Yuri's Revenge Soviet last mission's Secret Lab always give you Grand Cannon.

That's because the secret lab have attributes in coding about what secret infantry, unit or building can deliver, which are empty. Those are used only for single-player maps. Very neat for custom missions in the modding community. :3
