Hello,
Im looking for some help with duplicating spine crawler to create tower in my TD map. I managed to do it and my tower works well except one little thing, whenever it atks the animation doesnt show. And I made builder by duplicating probe and I dont know how to make it flying.
PS: Im total newb whos makeing his very first map.
Me, avogatro, nevjmac, and a few others were asked to join the sc2mapster staff just recently to replace some older mods that had left the site. (Like 2 or 3 days ago). :D

Feel free to Send me a PM if you have any questions/concerns!
regarding the spine crawler duplicating. it is a long and lengthy process. you are going to have to duplicate extra stuff that isn't available in the original duplication and you will have to go through every single actor to make sure they are identical, there are many stupid little things to make the spine crawler work, it is a rather lengthy and annoying process, but unfortunately there isn't an easier alternative atm
You just need to dupe the turret actor and change the two fields listed in that thread I gave.
Ok thanks, but there is still that little problem I have no clue where to find these two fields I have to change.
And btw to confirm that I get it right, are you reffering to these fields:
Art - Beam from SpineCrawlerAttackBeam2 to SpineCrawlerAttackBeam
Art - Missile from SpineCrawlerAttack2Missile to SpineCrawlerAttackMissile2
both are some fields under the action actor that yet I dont know where the hack they are.
edit:
I have already found these fields but when I changed them, the game crushed with some error :D

In general you need an action actor to get it to animate when attacking.
