By default, a Nexus, CC and Hatchery have a permanent text above their heads, displaying how many workers are currently harvesting minerals. (See picture below)
I am aware that the field Status Harvester Data field in the Actor can be modified to make that text appear. I can give that text to Gateways, for example... And it appears perfectly fine ingame.
I am trying to make that text field be displayed above a mineral field... So if one worker is currently harvesting minerals from a mineral field, the text above that mineral field should say something like: "Workers: 1/1" ... It might seem like a strange thing to do, but I have my reasons : )
The issue is that the text field refuses to appear above the mineral field... There has to be something that determines this, but I can not figure out what >.<
I finally managed to figure it out... and of course it was simple... Minerals field are by default neutral... But if a mineral field is controlled by a player, then it displays that message

ModeratorsSo you now need to change the ownership of all minerals to whatever player(s) are currently mining them?
