    How do you make unit abilities work on structures?

    did you give the bunker energy so it can use the snipe ability? or is it the attack ability of a ghost? edit: it just occured to me , if it is greyed out it could be because you didnt research it. if you want you can set reasearch for ghost - snipe to 1 for player 1 in the map init triggers...

    Help with Spawn/create-move trigger to properly work.

    any unit creates a unit this event might not work if youre trying to use a trigger to spawn the unit also, there is a "move unit instantly" action for last created unit == picked unit you havent told the editor to pick any units, so i dont think this is going to to anything at all in a...

    Possibilities for expansion[Spoilers(Obviously)]

    Can't control any units on my map

    as far as i know youre stuck with player 1 when you test, but you can do a Set Alliance Aspect - turn player 2 shared control on to player 1 in your map init triggers so you can control the other characters

    Unit Patrols and Removing Fog of War/Black Mask

    how to create Evasion with adjustable chance?

    i saw the damage response, but i thought the campaign description for the ability was 50%, and the data entry in the field was .2 so i didnt think it was the right one

    how to create Evasion with adjustable chance?

    there is an action in the triggers called "Set Catalog Value" that can change the data in the data editor for each player. i couldnt find the wraith evasion value very easily, so for an example i set the max health of the Tauren Space Marine unit to 1337. Game - Map initialization...

    Why does this SUPER simple trigger not work?

    triggering unit is probably not a valid function for - Unit is highlighted if you're getting red text when you test this trigger in game, thats the cause if it simply does nothing, it could be related to the "unit is highlighted" part. for that, im talking about the editor's definition of...

    Modify baneling to not deal damage when killed

    the problem with the baneling sap building ability is that its autocast on death. i looked at the data editor and im not sure how you'd turn that effect off, but an alternative idea would be to give the baneling a normal attack, and disable the sap structure and explode abilities on the...

    Two Things (warp in and damage bonus)

    there is a "warpable" effect or something on the protoss units that can be warped in in the data editor, try messing with that a bit for the ultralisk thing, make sure youre not confusing yourself with the ultralisks 2 different attacks, and check to be sure you are adding 0 to the +armored...

    weird white sphere

    the white sphere is a placeholder for bugged effects. it happened to me when i tried to modify a stalker's attack, and it would create that white sphere at the base of him and he would do the attacing motions, but no projectile would ever come. its most likely an error in your data editor
