tut2_main.slc is not so much a tutorial to SLIC, but more a tutorial to the game in general: it contains all the extra SLIC code that is needed for all the extra messages and advice you get when you play on the lowest difficulty level (I don't care what Activision calls it but it will always be Chieftain to me
). The actual documentation for SLIC isn't available yet, but St Swithin is working on it and it will no doubt be posted both on Apolyton and the Activision website when it's released.

Anyways, tut2_main.slc has some interesting writing involved in it, including "int_t RETARD" anyone know what that does?

ROFL! Well, it sure is more original then calling your variables 'i' or 'j', you gotta admire the eloquence
I don't have the files at hand (I'm at my university right now) so I can't tell exactly what it does but it's simply the declaration of a variable, on it self it does nothing, but this means that later on in the file a number can be stored under the name RETARD (though (almost) any other name would worked as well, as long as that same name is used later on in the code as well).
