Cool idea. But out of the scope of a 'QoL' mod I'd say.

As this will completely change gameplay and the classic RA1 experience

Good idea for a separate mod though. You'd also probably have to create separate 'garrison artwork' for every single building. Which would be a lot of work

Unlike RA2/RA3/Generals/TW, in RA1 there are few buildings on maps and no urban environments, so it would be much less useful than in aforementioned games.
So I'd disagree it will completely change gameplay - this will be barely noticeable, I'd say.

But that's exactly the reason why it may be not worth to implement even if this is possible - a lot of work for a feature that is useless in 95% of gameplay.
Of course I'd be happy to see it work, though.

Veterancy though...

+1 for veterancy

Except, we have a map editor.
Also there are some scenarios that this might be fun in.

I was also thinking about veterancy, as well as capturing the oil derrick structures for money...

As for artwork... I don't know about NEEDING seperate artwork, you could just draw pips on it if it has units inside. EDIT: Or add sandbags around it?

Drawing pips seems the easiest option, probably.

actually, it has already been done with Open RA and pillboxes

Thanks, but I'm pretty sure that doesn't help at all.
