What I need form this map, and what I don't need, is hard to tell because of what I have from the original killboard... I'm having someone (hopefully) look at it at plug things in from the tutorial video i posted...
I ll post here if i have any questions about the killboard you provided.
lol if this thread is cycling around itself then I guess it's a good thing that its not off topic. Theres only so far that this thread can go lol but it is stil going. besides, I've learned a lot from this thread alone about myself, other people, and this website..and that's important.
Well said... what an eyefull lol. A key point of this thread is in the deliverance. no, we cant get mad that eople dont share their knowledge but it is fair to feel disrespected if someone brushes you off, just because they know the answer and know you want it lol... cold stuff. Those are the people that I honestly have not scene.. personally, I may have invited someof them to my team haha because of their talent.. they are rarely willing to help its like you gotta catch them high or in a good mood somehow.. shower them with compliments?? to get them to do a solid for you. being like that is stupid... so you do stupid things with those stupid acting people to get what matters to you from them.
I played your map once.
the income mineral collection just feels wrong, like i think it should not be in that game and have a different form of income (I use bounties in mine since it is a promised steady income). The middle of the map seemed extra?? I think the perks should spawn in the path of the enemies sent units... and then players can use the middle pathways of the map to try and get around the battle and steal the perks.. Just a thought :/
Other than that, Great Game :D I really DO appreciate the random perks that spawn and i especially enjoyed the hero unit. And I can't leave out the upgrades; nice setup.
it is less polite to say that you need help asking for someone elses time, if you really do not know if you need help if u never did try. I get frustrated a lot with some ppl who try to join Genesis almost demanding an answer to a problem they never put effort into.
But,.. what I don't undertand is the harshness you displayed. you must have been pretty upset because it seemed to me like you put little effort into trying to refrain from insulting everyone. You put down the site and their moderating, and you practically shot down the noobs who did read your post... there was no distinction of new map makers and noobs "who have these ideas that will never see the light of day."
If I read that when I first came here I would assume that this site was full of attitudes like that.. not very welcoming.
I was hoping to have my problem solved by watching this tutorial but OneTwosc decides to go from making a killboard for players kills(older tutorial), to making a bank file for a units kills... im assuming he was aiming at helping those who were making an RPG.
I want to make a killboard that remembers (already have a killboard) a PLAYERS kills for future games.
I've copied everything that I could without having units(values) on the map from this video.
1) I have made the cost to -500 and it reward 500 minerals and does not destroy the building lol.
2)I'm looking in "effects" with "create healer" in the search box.
I see "medic - heal" as an option... but nothing in thier that I see worth changing. Validators?? already has 5 things if i add more it will only make it less likely.. There's "Channeled" and "Channeling" as checkable boxes.. but Channeled is already checked. lol AI?? I just dnt see where in that one..
I see "Medivac - Heal (Create Healer)" but everythings the same for this one except for 2 unworth mentioning validators and the (create healer) in the editor tab.
Dnt want to do the behavior buff regeneration cuz that would take away from the point of having vulnerable early units. then id might as well just increase their stats.. i like the heal ability because it is a random spuratic boost.
Might have something for zerg once i look at queen thx for that suggestion.but what about toss?
3)Same thing for repair.. effects dnt allow me to change anything that make sense to me.
4)terran drone and protoss drone and zerg drone have the hero selectable button that comes up on the screens right side.. just above the UI.. all workers do. Except for workers if I start out as zerg. If I make the workers from any other race it works fine.
5) Requirements: I made zerg - (probe,scv, drone)... Terran - (probe, scv, drone) and.. protoss - (probe, scv, drone)... I want to allow a player who starts out as zerg to only be aloud to make 1 of each race. Problem is that when zerg make a probe.. that probe makes a nexus. the nexus can make another drone.
update, I had the unit textures solved. Import path. Corbo showed me through a live stream, which is another helpful tool, I guess i should look into making my own account. Link??
(copied and pasted from above, half solved, half not)
1)Bunker refund ability is causing a problem. it rewards 500 minerals for zerg stuctures? is there a way to change the cost somehwere? or a salvage refund, for zerg stuctures so that the refund doesnt happen, but the players still have to pay for their buidings?
2)My healers won't heal. Warp prism, Medivac, medic, special ops drop ship, and overlord all heal.. they have the ability to but refuse. I dnt know what to do. These healers apply to all races but for some reason.. the only thing that works is terran, medivac heals scvs ONLY lol and the medic is fine for healing everything.. I want them to heal their own players units..(players can have all 3 races in my map). Tell me how you would make a warp prism heal all three races unit..
3)lol as i try to fix things it seeems like im messing things up. all three races have repair. how would I set it so the probe can repair all race structures? and have a drone be just as effective? I tried altering the flags to "require" almost everything and it says "must target air unit" or "must target mechanical unit"... I messed it up. So I put it all to "allow" everything and the scv is the only one that repairs.. tell me how you would make a probe repair all 3 races structures and units..
lol you definitely do need to draw a line sometimes. I've recognized some ppl new to the editor trying to take advantage, like not trying on their own and what not.. Just asking me for everything without having tried themselves at all... very frustrating when someone asks something like, "how do I make my character/unit move faster?"... some things are obvious that they did not try themselves.
The members of the bnet community vary in so many ways. the best of the best are here that's what I think. Just had corbo log into live stream video to show me how to import a model I downloaded from mapster.. He tried for almost an hour trying to talk me through it and eventually did the big favor of going live. No matter what people told me they never included that I had to set up an import path.. \assets\textures\ for testures and nothing for models.
Yea this community is nice, for the most part lol... you do get a few spoiled apples, but then you get those who turn them into applesauce and they are banned :D
that is a possibility too...
I am not sure but you could try putting the ability into a different structure .. have the barracks or a factory make the science vessel.

I see what you are saying.

lol never give up.. just keep it on your list. you will be able to come back to it, and you might find a resource or someone who can really help you..
If you think of it now, chances are, that is what you need for your map to be closer to perfection.
