Okay, so i create a leveling snipe ability with 4 levels. ( i create it like in wc3 with points and etc etc, like in many tutors here) It works perfect. But!
I using a one button for all levels of ability. Button can use only a one tool tip. Its looks very strange when unit have 3 level of ability, but its still write about 1 level of ability.
I try to work with command card + field in the ability data, but it seems i doing something wrong.
Maybe someone have a nice decision about this?
@SBeier: Go
But, where i need to add this animation? Dont know what field to use :(
I mean. i know how to add actors, but how use them when hero use ability?
Maybe its easy, but i dont get this.
Im copy and rename a sniping ability from nova, and give it to to marine. But when im using this ability, marine doesnt do anything. Bullet just go from model without any attack animation.
Oh thank you!
Dont wanna to create a new thread, so i ask here. How to hide a terrain in mini-map? Like in sc1? When you was need to go in territory to show it on mini map.
I try to work with visibility, enable all 2 types, and hide all map, but its didnt help.
Is there any way to create a blackscreen for 1-2 seconds? It will help me, because im need some time before switching from one camera to another. Or maybe some other like in cinema effect or it looks were unrealistic.
You know, like its instant teleport from one place to another..so horrible...
So i need to land a gerkules. There 3 models - 1 on earth, 1 in air, and 1 just without any ability like landing\flying.
I try to use a model in air with ability to land and launch, but ...
1) In triggers i give a order to unit move to point 01. Its going okay, and gerkules moving to point
2) After this i using trigger from general - if/then/or. If gerkules in region 01 ( where point 01) then give a order to use ability land. BUT there is no ability land in list! There is only launch ability. I try to create a new landing ability, but its doesn't help and i don't know how to create landing ability..
Then i try to use another option. I start to using hide\show trigger. Like - if gerkules in region 01 - hide unit gerkules ( in air ) - show unit gerkules ( on earth ). But its too didnt work :(
Im using russian version of editor, so maybe some triggers have other names.
@DarkShape80: Go
maybe you miss understand me.
I know how to create a object and how to complete him, and etc etc. Only one question is how to make a.. counter in the object?
So, i try to create a objects with dynamic changes of the progress like in blizzards map..
For example - "Kill a zerg (0/4)" After 1 of zerg was killd its changes to "Kill a zerg (1/4)"
I try to look at blizzard trigers but its hard to understand..And in russian localization some things cant be understand :(
http://www.sc2mapster.com/api-docs/getting-started-with-galaxy-edit/complete-hero/#w-step-4-creating-a-hero maybe this? there a point about exp system, not so hard how you will think when see this. Just try it from "create a hero".
There even a completed map with hero and exp in comments. So you can just load map and see in editor what they change.
At least you just need to create a new behavior - hero levels - veterance - and then edit a veterance + button. After this add new behavior to you hero in behaviors.
Oh yes, finally i got point!
Maybe it will help someone like me:
1) Create a new button with name Close Gate and ID GateClose (its very important!!!! If you name it other you will need to rename or create a new ability )
2) Then, switch to unit data, find a gate and add a new ability - DestructableGateblablabla BUT WITHOUT WORD LOWERED IN THE END!
3) Then, add a new button to command card.
4) Now you can try in, it will work.
After this, you will need to change some flags in ability DestructableblablalLOWERED, im using russian version of editor so i cant say how they localize this, there a 2 flags that you will need to delete, if you wish to reselect gate after open. Maybe its named like a unable to select...its easy.
Ok, thanks, im find how to add "open and close" ability. But anyway, its seems very strange.
1) We need to add a button with name Close gate with ID GateClose.
2) After this its automated added to gate in game. But, if i open gate and then select another unit gate became unclicked...anyway to change this?
And why this ability works even if i dont attach this in units data?? And why blizz delete it?? xD
Ok, im try to manually add ability "close" like if i was creating normal unit, but still i cant select gate after i deselect them after open gate command.
Im creating map and im very need gates.
1 problem - i cant find a nice model of gates.
2 problem - is there any other way to create a gates like a terran building with fly ability? just with other model?
