Ditto, I am not submitting my map till this is clarified as well.

@RodrigoAlves: Go

:\ I read it and it doesn't sound too good... I just really wish blizzard would confirm this...

Sorry for double posting.. but is there any more news on this?

I REALLY want to know if i should enter or not... If blizzard makes it so I am not allowed to publish after winning or not winning I do not want to enter this contest... If I can publish my map after then yes i do want to enter!!

Okay.. I really want to enter this. I've been working on a map for awhile now haven't published or anything like that. But... let's say I win the contest... I can't publish on bnet after? :O?!? Or let's say I don't win, I cant publish on bnet after??!?

Am I mistaken or is that what it says...

And then right underneith this it says...

So I'm VERY confused.. Do i get to publish and have rights to my map? Or is it officially blizzards after I win or don't win.

I'm having troubles modifying your tutorial to help me do what I want.. It's very simple too! I just want a different looking building by attaching a building (or 3) together at origin. So they will power down, die, and warp in at the same time. (obviously im talking protoss but those are just examples) I was also hopeint to attach a unrooted spore crawler to it so it could look like it's being carried away. But if I knew how to attach the first two buildings I think I'd be able to figure out the rest.

I'm a little confused, you want them to fire at once? (the same time) but you also said you don't want them to fire the same weapon multiple times? I'm not sure what you mean.. but having multiple weapons.. just look at a unit like the ultralisk. Different weapons depending on the target. ??

Hope that helps.

Hold shift before placing the building. (in editor)

I would love to help with terraining. I could set up Multiple different terrains in the map and with triggers at the begining there could be a small vote on which terrain is chosen. I'm not the greatest with data or trigger but i'm okay I love to terrain though.

@s3rius: Go

Yes my event is exactly that I went over your little tutorial over and over again and no luck.. i have no idea what I'm doing wrong!! :(

Alright.. so i decided to do this on a brand new fresh map, and what do you know it works perfectly first time i try it... I guess there is something wrong with my map I'm a little confused.. Maybe since the patch something got screwed up, I've had this map since phase 1.

This is really frustrating.. I don't want to have to redo my entire map...

@s3rius: Go

Thanks I did what you said.. but still no luck. I even set it up so that when i pressed a key it would run the trigger with ONLY that trigger to make sure, and opened the debug to make sure it was running. It is running but I don't see the effect go down.. :( Any other suggestions?

@Yaos01: Go

That's really sloppy...

@SkeletalHammer: Go

I really have no idea how to start with that.. I guess I'll keep trying.. Thanks for the help guys. If you have any more help please post! Could use as much as possible.

@s3rius: Go

Mm.. well that's all and good, but I guess I wasn't clear.. I wanted it to be trigger activated so when a player gets let's say a point their supply depot get's a supply drop doesn't matter if it really is one or its fake and it just looks like it. But I need it activated for a trigger, I don't want ALL supply depots to have them just certain ones depends on situations.

Title explains it, I'm trying to make it so with triggers I can make it so a certain supply depot looks like supply drop just got called down and you see the whole animation bit. I've tried doing it the cheating way by giving the supply depot the ability to call down supplies and then use the issue order trigger, but it requires a target. Tried to remove the required target bit so it would just do it to it's self like stim, no luck. Any help here?

Really appreciate it.

(screwed up on title with spelling.. *How to make a supply depot look like it got supply dropped* was sort of in a rush.)

I've accomplished this, I just looked at the Barrel in the data editor to figure it out. Helped me ^.^ EDIT: to forcibly have it to one.. just select the doodad and change it?

I am having no problems publishing my maps :o i have custom variants, my anti virus/fire wall is on, and no ports. :) I don't know what your problem is.
