Not sure if this has been done before i tried searching but couldn't find it. I'm trying to make a wraith that can load and unload 1 unit and i want the wraith to only be able to move/attack while it has cargo loaded so as long as the wraith has no units loaded up it can't move or attack? if anyone can help that would be great
I know exactly what you mean. I did a similar thing as an experiment, with a Marine combat suit... there was a guide for it on here somewhere, but I can't find a link to it. :\
Basically, the short answer is this: create a new Load-Unload ability, based on the Medivac's, with a Cargo size of 1 instead of 8. Add this to your Wraith.
Then create a Behavior which 1) disables all movement and attacking, 2) disables all abilities except for your Load-Unload (which you must specifically enable via the Modifications+ Ability tab), and 3) makes the unit uncommandable. Now set the Validator (Disable) of this behavior to "Has No Cargo."
Now when you add this to your Wraith, it will be immobile/disabled except for its Load ability, but only so long as it has no cargo. Otherwise it will function as normal. :]
I hope that helped! It's definitely a very cool concept.
thank you ill try that out real soon and ill reply if it worked right now im working on giving a battle cruiser a carrier abilitie. so i can launch small wraith as opposed to interceptors right now i can get the wraith to fire there normal burst laser while moving they stop and shoot instead of strafe and shoot
Edit: Thanks you very much it works out just well :)
