I've been stuck on GDI mission 15 for a while now. After I repair one
vehicle with the Repair Bay, it is as if the thing doesn't exist anymore.
I can't repair vehicles (when I move them to the repair bay, I don't
get the green arrows), and I can't sell the thing either. 
Also, why is it that NOD can build structures near my base which do not touch 
other NOD structures? (Near the lower middle of the screen, there is a Tiberium
field surrounded on three sides by mountains. Within 3 minutes or so
of setting up my base, a Hand of NOD, Adv. Power plant, and Obelisk magically
appear. Even if I wipe them out, they reappear unless I build something
to block them or move units there.

Any suggestions? 
In case this is important, I started the mission from the south, and I'm using
version 1.18p
Thanks.

It will only allow one unit at a time to be heading for the bay to get
repaired.  Make sure you don't have something stuck somewhere heading for
the repair bay, but unable to get to it because of a wall.  The movement AI
can sometimes be a bit braindead about things like that.

Because they built the map that way.  I put a couple of engineers into an
APC, zapped the obelisk with my ion cannon, captured the hand and the power
plant, then plopped a sandbag on top of the obelisk.  This had the side
effect of allowing me to build flamethrowers.
