They do not apply to the custom map I'm making =D

@DerNalia: Go

So... this is how I ended up doing it. I wish there was a more condense way... =(

        Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in (Entire map) owned by player Any Player matching Required: Ground; Excluded: Uncommandable, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
            Actions
                Unit - Kill (Picked unit)
        Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in (Entire map) owned by player Any Player matching Required: Air, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
            Actions
                Unit - Kill (Picked unit)
        Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in (Entire map) owned by player Any Player matching Required: Structure; Excluded: Uncommandable, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
            Actions
                Unit - Kill (Picked unit)
        Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in (Entire map) owned by player Any Player matching Required: Worker, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
            Actions
                Unit - Kill (Picked unit)

I found out that be setting filter, it destroys structures... but it also destroys minerals. Which would be fine if I could put them back =D

Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in (Entire map) owned by player Any Player matching Required: Structure, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)

@s3rius: Go

I think it has to do with the filter... By default, everything is set to "allowed" ... but that doesnt' allow the destruction of everything using this method.

@Chiquihuite: Go

how? (yeah, it needs to happen during game)

I'm already killing all units on a map

        Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in (Entire map) owned by player Any Player matching Required: Worker, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
            Actions
                Unit - Kill (Picked unit)

I need to move a players base around, and Step 1 is destroying the initial base. How do I do that?

@DerNalia: Go

I found out how to kill units:

        Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in (Entire map) owned by player Any Player matching Required: Worker, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
            Actions
                Unit - Kill (Picked unit)

Now I just need to know how to kill bases / buildings. =\

In my custom map, the player's base and units can be teleported around (kinda).

When the match starts, I do the following:

        Melee - Create (Race of player (Triggering player)) melee starting units for player 1 at selectedStartPosition
        Melee - Set melee starting resources for all players

I need a way to undo these two commands, so that I can invoke them again, without worry of having two bases at the same start location.

Ideas?

Is there a way to kill off everything?

I've seen that before in custom... where all your stuff explodes.

@maverck: Go

you were right.

My problem is I"m trying to store DialogItems as the index of an array:

    lv_currentButton = libNtve_gf_CreateDialogItemButton(
        gv_startPositionSelector, 
        gv_BUTTON_WIDTH, gv_BUTTON_HEIGHT, 
        c_anchorCenter, 
        gf_getClockXPosition(lv_startLocation-gv_CLOCK_PI_OFFSET),
        gf_getClockYPosition(lv_startLocation-gv_CLOCK_PI_OFFSET),
        StringToText(""), 
        IntToText(lv_startLocation + 1), "");
    gv_positionSelectButtons[lv_currentButton] = lv_startLocation;

Guess I'll have to make the array really big

@grenegg: Go

Aye, thanks for that lil bit of info.

Unfortunately, Galaxy Editor gives me no idea where / what is causing this error. Is there someway to turn on like... Super Debug God mode?

00:00:00.00 Trigger Error in 'gt_MeleeInitialization_Func': Trying to access an element past the end of an array. 00:00:00.00 Running gt_MeleeInitialization_Func (Event: Map Initialization)

So... I'm not sure what is going on here: I have an array of size 12. and I assign values at indexes 0-11 (I also tried 1-12, in case Galaxy is 1-indexed)... but I get this error regardless.

Here is the only code in MeleeInitialization

// set up start locations
gv_startPositions[0] = gv_oClock1;
gv_startPositions[1] = gv_oClock2;
gv_startPositions[2] = gv_oClock3;
gv_startPositions[3] = gv_oClock4;
gv_startPositions[4] = gv_oClock5;
gv_startPositions[5] = gv_oClock6;
gv_startPositions[6] = gv_oClock7;
gv_startPositions[7] = gv_oClock8;
gv_startPositions[8] = gv_oClock9;
gv_startPositions[9] = gv_oClock10;
gv_startPositions[10] = gv_oClock11;
gv_startPositions[11] = gv_oClock12;

gf_initSelectGUI();

gv_startPositions is a point array of size 12

• Note, I would have assigned these all with a for loop... but I didn't know how to iterate over all the start locations on the map.

Do I need to init the array somehow?

@Blixster: Go

Thank you, kind sir. You have pointed me to where I need to be!

@Blixster: Go

how do I link the [Position]?

@Exaken: Go

Well, the race is currently up to the player (from the create menu screen). But, I would like them to be able to choose where they start. Do you know how I would do that?
