SC2Mapster

Greetings,

I have three problems that I cannot figure out. I need help from you wonderful people at SC2 Mapster.

• All players on this map I am making have a hero with a cloak ability. Although the game revolves around the players killing each other, technically they are allies, so they can see each others' heroes when they are cloaked. Is there a way to change this while the players remain allies?

• I have several actors (such as Active Crystals) attached to units. I want the actors and the units to be visible through the fog of war. I have easily made the units visible, but the actors remain hidden no matter what I check.

• I made a neutral building with an interact ability to function like an item shop except for upgrades. I had issues and read that upgrades would not work from neutral buildings, even with share control enabled. I did a workaround by giving heroes a modified Hive Mind Emulator ability and putting it on auto-cast. This now works beautifully, except when the upgrade is purchased, the button no longer grays out. I put the "Equals Count Upgrade Queued or Better Constant 0" requirement in, so it definitely should work.

HELP!

Thank you,

Potfish

1. For each player in playergroup (active players), set alliance to "ally" (without shared vision)

2. The simplest solution is to disable fog of war..

Thank you.

Now the only real problem that remains is the last one... and that one that has been annoying me the most. Any ideas? :(

I will rage with you!

lulz aside, have you tried that same upgrade in a normal building always owned by the player?

I just tried, and it works. So, now that my workaround failed for some reason, is there a solution to it or something else I can try?

Also, this is more of a minor thing, but... whenever I hover over a computer player, the tooltip says "Computer 7." This is annoying and I would like to remove it. "No Tooltip" is already checked.

Yeah, that's what I did... but it doesn't work. Here are screenshots to show. The "Computer 7" appears both on units with "No Tooltip" and also on units with custom tooltips.

I tried that and it doesn't work. Units with "No Tooltip" show a black square, while the custom tooltips show a blank space.
