New POW Mechanic Test

Описание: NOTE: The contents shown in this video are still under development, things may change and not the same in the actual release!

An attempt to revive the cut POW mechanic from the beta version of C&C Generals.

Basic infantry can be upgraded with special weapons that allow to make enemy infantry surrender. Ranger's Flashbangs can be used to subdue enemy infantry, while Red Guard can have Stun Bullets, and Rebel can use Tranquilizer Darts after respective upgrades. These surrendering/subdued infantry then can be captured and turned into Prisoners by POW Trucks that are buildable from Detention Camp, Propaganda Center, or Prison depending on the faction. These captured Prisoners then can be ordered to enter said prison collection buildings to get certain perks. Each faction also have unique POW Truck compared to each other: USA POW Truck is more armored and can be upgraded with drones, China POW Truck has speaker tower addon, while GLA POW Truck is armed with machinegun for self-defense.

Originally, before the feature cut, the collected Prisoners meant to give you limited special power depending on the faction: USA will get the full-map reveal that is CIA Intelligence (which were repurposed in the final game as standard special power), China will get Defector special power that allows you to bribe any single enemy unit to your side anywhere, and GLA will get Demoralize special power that can reduce enemy firepower drastically (which has been repurposed in NProject Mod). However because it's no longer possible to revive such special power acquisition method, I will do something different for the collected Prisoners and the prison buildings. What it would be is still to be decided. For now, in this video I just made them turn into supplies once collected into the prison buildings.
