But it's your own eco that goes into those, so you're not actually saving anything except the faction's tech.

there is one way you can fool the system though : if you are gifted an engineer of a factory anything you construct with those / any of their "children" will survive when the teammate dies while the factory or engineer will die

Anything that your team mate builds with your units however remain his, as well as any upgraded structures

This depends on the game settings.

Standard it is set to ShareUntilDeath, which means you can give units to other players(Sharing), but when you die everything that was build by you will die too.(UntilDeath)
If you want to have your units stay alive, then you need to play FullShare. FullShare will auto donate all the units you own to another player when you die (you can choose which by donating before death ofcourse).

Time doesn't matter what matters is who made the unit.

Does anyone know how much time you have before death to gift your units?

it happens to avoid exactly that, since it means if you know the trick you get an extra army for your team xD

its share until death, at which point the share stops and your units die. its intended. you cant really stop it apart from playing fullshare

hope this helps xD

gifted units dying

2017-01-21T23:19:51+02:00

so this has happened twice now;

my commander was about to die, so I pressed CTRL+C then gifted all my units to my team mate. The units all changed colour. But once my commander died (shortly after) all my old units died also.

Why does this happen?
& does anyone know how to stop this happening?
