- Which is your most loved feature of C++?
When I discovered vcpkg I waq very disappointed and started to look for alternatives. I found cppan (https://github.com/cppan/cppan) which was exactly what I was looking for (A bit like npm but for C++). It became sw and I don't really like that name but it's still the best thing I've found for handling dependencies on Windows.

- AI hit one of my obelisks while the deploy animation was going. Sent me ~1,000,00 power into the red. Deploying a GDI barracks fixed it later. Has anyone else seen this before?
- Any way to play on a MacBook Pro?
You can try experimental projects such as Vanilla Conquer so you can play C&C1 and RA1. https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Vanilla-Conquer
- Error trying to run CnCNet (C&C) on Linux Mint
There's also a project called Vanilla Conquer which is a perfect port of the originals based on open source code released with the remaster but it's not been packaged so it has to be built from source.

- C&C: "Red Alert" and "Tiberian Dawn"s Linux ports added to Luxtorpeda
u/d10sfan has added Vanilla Conquer source port for Command & Conquer: Red Alert and Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn which are part of Command & Conquer Remastered Collection to Luxtorpeda repos. Thanks to that, native Linux ports of those games can be played as Steam games.
- Command & Conquer: Tiberian Dawn's Linux port added to Luxtorpeda for Steam
The title is misleading, OpenRA is not a linux port of Tiberian Dawn or Red Alert for that matter, its a fan clone game. Vanilla Conquer is a proper linux port of the original games based on the source code released for the remaster.
- PSX Red Alert appreciation post
https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Vanilla-Conquer is an open source build of the original C&C and Red Alert based on the source code released for the remaster. It needs the data from the original games but they are freeware and can be found dotted around the internet.
- C&C Red Alert Remastered Map Editor
Neutral being uncapturable is probably due to https://github.com/TheAssemblyArmada/Vanilla-Conquer/issues/668 this bug because if I recall correctly, the neutral is considered to be allied to all other houses even if other houses aren't allied with them.
- Games I can contribute too.
- Need help playing Red Alert on a Chromebook
I think so. I think you just have to download the binary from the releases thing and then follow the instructions here . There's also a Discord server if you need more help.
