    Try setting a duration to the cloak behavior.

    posted a message on (trigger) Leader board and kill all units.

    For the first one can't you just set the text for the leaderboard?

    And for the second one do Pick all any units in entire map -> Kill picked unit

    posted a message on Big project in the works about to be scrapped, need input

    If you started it with the beta editor, then that may be your problem, although you said you transferred it to a new map so I'm assuming you created the new map with the new editor. If the problems still persist, then to be quite frank, your code sucks lol. It doesn't give you error messages for no reason, especially arrayoverflows.

    posted a message on Porting over Dark Swarm

    Why should I use an aura? What I was trying to do was create a persistent that periodically gives the behavior to all units found in a search area of another effect. I sort of got it to work that way, but the guardian shield doesn't cast at the point, it just creates it at the caster. And it only gives the behavior to the caster too...

    posted a message on Porting over Dark Swarm

    So I'm trying to port over Dark Swarm for my map, but I'm running into some trouble.  I can get the range stuff to work fine, but nothing happens when I go to cast it.  I'm not sure how to post what I've got so far.  I was planning on using the guardian shield as the model for it.  I saw AegisRunestone made a test map with it in it, but it was really unorganized so I couldn't tell what was going on.  Not to mention I think he used quite a bit more than was needed to create the effect.

    Here's what dark swarm does:
    - creates AOE dark swarm
    - nullifies all ranged damage to units in the dark swarm
    - splash damage can still go through the swarm (tanks initial hit will be 0, but splash damage isn't affected)

    Thanks.

    posted a message on [Editor]Publishing Issues (Header Failing)

    I had this same problem. I think what happened was I changed the race of the players under Game Variants. Once I changed it back it worked fine. The Game Variants window is very buggy. Also, sometimes if you change things in Player's Properties after messing with Game Variants, it gets screwed up too.

    posted a message on [trigger]How do you do "Player Commands 0 Buildings" trigger in SC2?
    Quote from Frightwolf2005: Go

    And now I figured out how to do objectives (I used the tutorial on the site and saved my objective in the Global Data type or whatever it's called).

    Great, so the triggers y'all gave me did work. Thanks SO MUCH because I was ready to run head first at my screen on this. =P

    No problem. :P

    I found myself confused as well coming over from the SC1 editor. The wording of conditions are hard to get your head around.

    posted a message on Prevent attacking through walls (terrain)?

    I was also looking to do this. Seems like it's in demand lol. There's gotta be a way to make it so that units can only target units on cliff levels equal or less than their current cliff level...

    posted a message on [trigger]How do you do "Player Commands 0 Buildings" trigger in SC2?

    You could do something like:

    Event: Any unit dies

    conditions: Number of Buildings owned by player in Entire Map == 0

    actions: end game for player

    To find that condition, you have to do "Number of units in unit group", and then you can change the unit group to units in region.

    posted a message on [Trigger] Map Initialization Problems

    I think the waits in the trigger are what's the problem. You can have multiple Map Initialization triggers, why not split the cinematic with the waits into another?

    Unless I'm mistaken and that's how you planned it to be.

    posted a message on [trigger] Get player number?

    Are you trying to get the player number of the owner of the unit? You can just use triggering player for that. Or I'm pretty sure there's a condition to return the owner of a specific unit as well.

    posted a message on [Trigger]How do I make a UI Button Create a Unit?

    Well now you need to determine which button was clicked and which actions to take from that. Usually what I do is have one trigger with the "Any button clicked" event, and then for the actions I use a bunch of if then else statements. For the condition in the if then else, if would be something like "Button clicked = <your button variable>" and the actions would be what you want. Make sure that after you create your dialog buttons you use <variable> = (last created dialog button) to assign them to variables.

    This sounds (and looks) like cat and mouse from SC1. Can anybody who's played both say this is a valid comparison? I've never played WC3.

    posted a message on [Triggers] Setting unit's colors by triggers

    You can also use the trigger actions "Unit - Set (Triggering unit) team color to (Player 01) Red" or "Player - Set player 1 color to (Player 01) Red (Change the color of existing units)" but those don't let you set a hex value.

    posted a message on [Misc] How to Publish Custom Maps on Battle.net 2.0
    Quote from HALF47: Go

    I have a custom map that is 250x250, called ascension. it is a map where three humans can take on a assorted amount of computers up to 11. I am not allowed to publish it to even private because it says, "The Requested Publish Name has Unacceptable words(Starcraft) [LOCALE]". I have change the name from many things and dont see any problems with the map. also it gives a file size has not been optimized too. Thanks

    If it's giving you that error then whatever is in the () is a word you aren't allowed to use, so you must have the word Starcraft somewhere in the map title or description.
