I decided to reboot one of my older map back from SC2:WOL beta which was broken after SC2 went live. So here it is, The Intersection Reboot. Old Link:http://www.sc2mapster.com/maps/intersection/
Description:
The Intersection is a single player third person action RPG that lets you play as one of the most fearsome Hydralisk. You are to follow the Queen's command and secure a breeding area for the swarm. However this area is the busiest trading route between major Terran cities, and it is highly guarded.

This is a map I created for fun over the course of 5 days and it is currently participating the Rock the Cabinet arcade contest. The game is still in its early stages, any feedbacks and/or suggestions are more than welcome. If you have a replay of a game session, please do post it here as it will greatly help me improve on the game.

1. Skin selection HUD. Earn steak(s) at the end of the game!
2. User Interface
3. Player killing a bunch of civilians that are gathering around a Steak Office
4. Player capturing a house to relocate Headquaters. Headquaters spawn additional gang members to reinforce your gang.
5. Butcher Event. Butcher hunts the player who paid the least every 2 minutes. Remember to pay your tribute to the Steak Palace.
6. Players trying to pay tribute but ended up fighting each other.
7. A player is ressurecting himself at a Cloning Post
8. Purchasing an upgrade from the Milk Factory. It is always a good idea to purchase early as the price goes up when a player purchases it.
I am not sure how to set the raw data but the arc of the ability has been set to 360. My current work around that i just figured out is to add a buff to the building that surpress turning.
The enemy unit should have a buff that has a validator (remove) that detects it doesn't have a buff. When it does, the buff will be removed, and the final effect on the buff will be applying another buff on itself.
Here is a map showing how I did it. Once again I am not sure if this is the correct way, there might be another easier way which I don't know of.
Sorry to create 2 different topics in such a short time. But this is a different issue I encounter.
Here is my problem:
1. I made my custom buildings "turnable" so that I can set their facing angle in the editor.
2. WIth "turnable" flag turn on, the building fails to auto cast ability (just stuck at grey/casting) and will never execute the ability. (Ability arc: 360)
3. With "turnable" flag off, the building is able to auto cast the ability just fine.
Is there a way to set building facing angle and still letting it auto cast? Is there a workaround for this?
Attach is the test map I used. On default if you run it it will be working. But it will stop working when "Turnable" flag is checked under Unit > Barracks > Flag. I want it to be turnable because I want to change the facing angle of the barracks.
I know this has been posted many times but I can't find a concrete answer in the threads I searched. So here is my question...
Does search area (effect) validator take in unit type (validator)? In another words, search area doesn't return target unit before applying the effect?
Because I can't seem to make a search that looks for 1 unit type.

Congrats to all! and thank you for making awesome games for the arcade!

Is there a way to reset the periodic timer back from the start when a buff is disabled? Right now it continues from where it was paused.

Ah right, sorry I totally miss that one out. Glad you figured it out :)

You could just give the "scared" buff a duration, i just left it there untouch. You can replace "scared" buff with any buff you want.

Do you mean the enumerate area validator?
