How Do You Add Cities And HQs Properly?

[Rendar]

What fields should I associate the HQs and Cities with?  How should I go about implemeting those features in my terrain?

All strat objects, cities, factories, and HQ's, should be associated with a country, not a field.

Select all the objects at that facility, and bring up the object properties box.

Then where it says "owned by" Field #, click once on the button that says "Field" and it will change to "Country".

Then enter country 1, 2, or 3, as appropriate.

Rendar,

Saving you a few clicks and typing for each object.

When I place the city object group on the terrain and it asks me which field should the group be owned by, I chose 1, 2 or 3 depending on which country will own the field.  Changing to a county owned object then is just a double click on the object name in the object editor, click on the Field Owned button to make it country owned and then click on ok.

I must be a bonehead...how do you bring up the properties box?

When editing objects the object that is selected appears in the selection list, (Page 12 of the manual has a picture).

Just double click on the name of the object, (in the picture on Page 12 the selected object is called F01VOD0).

That brings up the properties for that object.
