Hello, this should be easy, but I can not get it to work...
I want an ability on a unit. When it uses the ability, it has to click on a structure. The unit will move very fast to that structure. It does not obey other orders until it has reached its destination or the structure is destroyed. If possible, the ability can be canceled.
I have an Instant ability on a structure. When I click on it, all nearby structures get a buff.
I want the ability to ONLY be used if there are other structures nearby. It is so lame if a player accidently clicks to cast the spell and there are no structures near, so it has no effect.
Any idea how to check if there are nearby structures?
whenever a unit dies, all other units that player control will gain increased stats permanently.
For example, 3 minutes into the game, 12 units have died for player A. This means that all other units player A controls would get for example +12 armor. 5 minutes into the game, 24 units have died. Now player A units gain +24 armor.
Any ideas how to build this?
The only way I can think of is that whenever a unit dies, it spawns an invisible dummy unit on the battlefield with a search effect that adds a buff to all other units. But I think that will lag because there will be a lot of units that die. Is there any other way?
in Brood War the Queen has a spell called Parasite. When you cast it on an enemy unit, you gain vision of it and the color of the wireframe changes. Can the color of the wireframe be changed in the SC2 editor? I can't find out how
I have an ability that targets a structure. When it does, 4 units are spawned, each at every side of the structure. See picture below.
I use persistent effects to determine the positions via offsets, but no units are created at those locations. Since the spell targets a structure, I think the persistent effect can not determine the positions on the ground where the units will be spawned? If the spell targets a point, then it works better.
After the patch I reinstalled Starcraft to see if it would help. It seems like the new installation does not allow users to access the C:/Program/Starcraft/Mods directory anymore? See attached picture below
When I create a test map and try to add a dependencie into it, I can not change the directory /Mods to any other folder in order to add a .sc2mod file into the map from anywhere else on my computer. It is as if everything must be done via battle.net now?

Any ideas how to approach this ability?

I have an ability that channels a periodic effect for 10 seconds. When I go to the ability, I click "Show progress" and there I select "Channel".
When the unit starts to channel the ability, a progress bar appears above the unit but it is not moving. It only stays at 0. No progress happens.
Any idea how to make a progress bar appear above a unit when it channels a spell?

Thanks! :)

Thank you! I found a solution based on the Modify Player effect

Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

Below is a picture of how my trigger looks so far, with some red arrows and questions mark added to it.
As you can see on the picture, I don´´'t understand how to insert a race in: Attribute Player-Value = (insert your race here)
And I don't understand this: "You also need to use the Picked Player function for all parameters defining the player."
