Hello everyone. Just got back to modding ever since the Mac editor finally got fixed. Right now I am working on a simple mod that only allows ground units. Now thing is that with such a mod, I realized that terrains could easily just lift off structures and float them off map. I don't want to just out right remove the lift off ability for terrans though because its something that makes playing that race more unique in playstyle. I am however trying to figure out a way to cause Terrans cause the structures to explode set on fire after 30 seconds and explode after one minute(preferably with warning text beforehand. I suspect that a trigger needs to be made for this, but I am very unfamiliar with triggers currently. Wanted to know how I might go about this.
Global warning text. Does not have to be anything fancy either. I am basically just thinking say for example a text that appears by the side of the screen saying"Structure will start burning or explode if you don't land soon". This may be kinda necessary since people new to the mod may not know this happens right off that bat.

ModeratorsUse Apply Behavior effects applied by the Morph ability that do stuff as the finish effect.
This a global warning text or just near the unit + an alert?

ModeratorsDefinitely use Alerts then. Combine it with the Effect: Alert field of your effects.
