One of the things I'm trying to figure out is a way to set up my SCV so that it can only build buildings (submenu 2/3) while it's in a certain region, and build other buildings (submenu 4) when it's in another region. I have seen this done on Desert Strike, where cannons/bunkers/crawlers can only be built on the main battlefield. I am looking to do something similar. Any assistance towards the right direction will greatly be appreciated (this might even belong in the trigger section?)
You would need a requirement that counts if you have a counter buff behaviour on your unit. This buff can be applied/removed by triggers as you enter/leave a region.

edit: I found a roundabout way of doing it - you can just create a buff behavior to remove an ability and then set a trigger to add 1 or remove 1 to that buff depending if the unit enters/leaves the region.
First I want to say that I am a moron. When I read the title I though you were asking to restrict an ability to a region like NA or EU lol. Oh well, back to Kindergarden for me.
For the trigger, it looks like to create the behavior, you are requiring the behavior already being on the unit. Can't really tell though.
