Transfers
Aubergine
Donating power or units to an ally
You can transfer power and units (droids) to allies to help them survive.
Click on the Intelligence icon to list all players:
You can do the following types of transfers, but only with allies:
Button | Notes |
---|---|
![]() | Transfer Power This button will transfer some of your power to the player. |
![]() | Transfer Units Select some of your units and then click this button to transfer ownership of those units to the player. |
Warzone 2.x
In Warzone 2 and earlier, research and sensor data wasn't automatically sent to allies like it is in Warzone 3.x and later.
There were two extra buttons on the intelligence screen to compensate:
Button | Notes |
---|---|
![]() | Transfer Sensor Data This button sends sensor data to your ally, allowing them to see all parts of the map that you can see. |
![]() | Transfer Technologies This button sends all your researched technologies to the player, enabling them to start using those technologies. |
Requesting transfers
Several AIs support truck and power donations if you use the right In-game Chat commands.
Stealing from the enemy
When it comes to enemies, the best tactic is to steal their stuff!
You can utilise the NEXUS Intruder Program via a Nexus Link Turret to capture enemy units, structures and even steal their technology and sensor data.

But remember, they can do the same to you – it's always a good idea to research Nexus Resistance Circuits if the enemy shows up with Nexus Link turrets.
There are also some notable mods that use Nexus Link technology:
- Ultimate Scavenger Mod – the Scavengers regularly steal your trucks and cyborgs, and sometimes even base defences!
- Contingency Mod – this adds a massive Nexus Link Fortress to the game, capable of assimilating anything that gets close!
For developers
Script developers can handle transfers with the following commands:
- eventObjectTransfer() – triggers when a unit is transferred between you and another player
- donatePower() – donate power to a player
- donateObject() – donate a droid or structure to a player
To change the button images, see: Images, Icons & Cursors.
