Here's a portion of the magic in MAC.lua (No mentions of other macs because this was written for siegemod which just has one giant mac as powerful as 5)

local function QualificationsForConstruct(self, target)
   return target ~= nil and HasMixin(target, "Construct") and not target:GetIsBuilt() and GetAreFriends(self, target)

So if you're new to SiegeMod, well, it has a Giant Mac, as powerful as 5 with health, speed, size, build/construct rates rather than having 50 tiny macs. So excuse that portion. (I would export Micro Management Mac(the button toggles) into Vanilla ns2, but I really don't feel like modifying
everything in a way that does not overwrite/override, for the sake of working with other mods

I'm not a big fan of the siege mod, but this is really cool!

That big mac reminds of king boo in super mario 64
