Hey,
So I have been working on a map with sc2 editor, and i have encountered a problem. I am attempting to create a new building that has the skin of a Xel'Naga shrine, but can also have workers deliver resources to it. The problem is when I test the map it disappears, but it appeared in editor. I have tried creating a new unit and copying from Xel'Naga temple. I have tried duplicating it and duplicating the actors linking them together and changing the models. I can't seem to find the problem. Help would be appreciated.
I have followed like 4 different tutorials to the letter and none of them seem to work. This is the main one I tried.
Go to the Unit tab in the data editor.
Find a unit you want to duplicate and customize.
Right click on the unit, click Duplicate Object from the context menu.
Make sure the main unit Actor is checked, leave everything else unchecked. The main actor is the Actor of type Unit, like the "Marine" actor. Press OK to duplicate.
Go to the Actor tab, select your duplicated Unit Actor. Make sure that the TOKEN at the top is properly set your duplicated unit.
Done.
Edit : This is a example of a tutorial :P I can't get it to work
Anyhow duping often causes more problems that it solves.
Make a Unit from the data type of the same name, give it a Unit type actor and tie it to the unit with events. Give it a Move ability and you have the first step done.
