Probably, but one thing annoys me. I can't find the colonists anywhere inside the editor, no matter how much I search... I only want to find it because I had an idea.
Your problem is most likely that you haven't imported the correct mods to get any of the campaign units. To do it, with your map open, go File > Dependences and add the Liberty (Campaign) standard. You can also do this in the create new map window.
Interesting. What happens if you save your map, reopen it and then try adding the new mods? Or maybe you need to update the mods you currently have attached? I'll play around with it and see if I can get it to work.
I just opened up one of my old beta maps and added the Liberty (Campaign) dependency. After which I have all of the campaign units including the Colonists.
Well, I just imported everything to a new map and that worked just fine, so blah. Issue solved as far as I'm concerned. I still don't know why it wouldn't add it, even though you could.
And yes, it said "Loading base data" which means the mpq file for it, I assume.
I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
