I'm setting up my lobby and the default mode, which has incorrect teams and team sizes, seems to be one which I am not able to remove. The second mode (which is the one I want) has to be picked from the drop-down menu to the right. How do I force my game to be a single mode map where configuration in the lobby isn't an option?
and he mentions it as "Note that, as soon as you change anything to Map > Player Properties, you will get a Custom mode without any way to hide it. So retards may still set it to custom and fuck up your game. I consider this automatic Custom Mode thing a bug and I hope Blizzard will fix it in the next patch. "
But I can't seem to fix it, if I leave my player properties as default I'm not able to configure the variant and if i drop the variant I won't be able to get the right team sizes.
What Blizzard did for that mission was set the camera view via triggers. Make a region the size of what you want the players to see and then use the Set Camera Bounds trigger and set it to that region.
I don't believe you can just hand a gun to any medic as that would be a model, which isn't in the game. But you can easily make the medic shoot with whatever you'd want :)
I'm still (Yes, still) working on my TD and I've been trying to figure out how to spawn units (enemy units) outside the map bounds. The "effect" I'm trying to create is that which we saw in the Utter Darkness mission in the sc2 campaign (Last protoss mission) where the enemy units arrive from outside the very edge of the camera view.
Right now the majority of my waves spawn far inside the map because there isn't room for them in their spawning area.
I'm still working on my TD and I've started testing it (roughly). I've run into the issue where one or more of the wave mobs stop and stay stopped until they are killed and this isn't acceptable obviously. Up until now I've been using my triggers to make the little guys move, but I can't seem to figure out how make a trigger which basically goes:
Every 5 seconds order all units of player X to GAME OVER.
Im sort of tired of having copies of copies of copies and I realized that you can delete these if you look them up through their respective tab, however this takes a loooong time and I was hoping I could do this directly from the Object Explorer.
Like lets say I have a unit, which is a duplication of a previous unit, I duplicate the attacks and end up having the original attack (are they even linked to the original unit??) and the copy of that attack. Two attacks (or even more in my worst cases) is nothing more than annoying, so I wanted to delete them making my new unit unique and independent from my original unit. Is this possible to do in a fast and efficient manner?
It looks great now, apart from the turret focusing on 1 target only, making the multiple shots rather useless. Maybe there's a way to make reach weapon fire at units which aren't being attacked?
I didn't even realize there was a weapons tab :D. But i'm not really getting the desired effect. Right now the multiple attacks act more as a multiplier of my damage. Meaning: The tower is shooting once over period with 3 attacks. where i was looking for a more smooth and random(is there a way to make attacks random?) damage output.
At least im closer to my goal.
thanks again :D
(I'm trying what Xackery wrote) thanks to you too.
Hey guys, I just started with this editor and I seem to be getting the hang of it. I'm pretty much done with all the hard stuff, triggers, code etc. but I seem to be having trouble with the simplest of things. I'm trying to make a tower, which is capable of firing multiple projectiles at the same time (ie, not just fast firing). At first i thought "The mutalisk has multiple attacks" but after trying it, it became obvious that it isnt really "multiple", it's more of a bounce effect :)
This leaves me clueless, I still haven't figured out how to add effects, weapons, actors etc. to a new unit (which isn't a duplication or copy of a previous unit).
I read around and found a post mentioning the zealot psi blades, but with me being new, i have not idea how to add this entire weapon to my tower.

I tried this, but the units won't spawn outside the blue line which seems to be connected with the yellow camera line
