Whether this was just an oversight or whether it was actually used for something is uncertain.

The only Tiberian Sun super weapon not commented out in the code is the GDI Ion Cannon - IonCannonSpecial. The Nod Multi Missile super weapon was adapted into the Soviet Nuclear Missile, and still bears the old name of MultiSpecial. Tiberian Sun's super weapon code is still contained within rules.ini, though commented out for the most part. Two unused Tiberium types that were present in the code of Tiberian Sun - Cruentus and Aboreus - are still present in Red Alert 2's code. Gems have taken on the name of the rarer blue variant - Vinifera. In addition, ore is still referred to in code by the name of the standard green variant of Tiberium - Riparius. However, being built on the Tiberian Sun engine, most references to ore in rules.ini still mention "Tiberium", and control variables for the spread of ore and mining behaviour still have tag names such as "TiberiumFarScan". These have been replaced by the more conventional ore and gems in Red Alert 2, in keeping with the original Red Alert. Tiberium was the resource collected in Tiberian Sun, and came in two varieties - green and blue. Some of the country names were also different to those employed in the final game. Unused country data also exists for "GDI" and "Nod" countries (using the gdii.pcx and nodi.pcx files shown below), either to just test the system, or possibly to later be converted into vanilla Allied and Soviet countries. The Allies and Soviets are referred to by the sides system as "GDI" and "Nod" - the two main factions from Tiberian Sun. Red Alert 2 was developed on top of the Tiberian Sun game and engine, so a lot of graphics and programming code from the earlier game persists within Red Alert 2. These use color palettes from the earlier games which weren't left in Red Alert 2's files, and thus can only be properly seen using palettes extracted from the earlier games. Several graphics from Command & Conquer, Red Alert and Tiberian Sun can be found in the data. Located in ra2.mix are some leftover graphics data from older Command & Conquer games, and unused graphics made for early versions of Red Alert 2.
