    Problem with moving camera with keys or mouse

    It's not the map. It doesn't matter what map, and last time i saw her have this problem she was playing campaign mode, too. This problem has also occurred with both an older and updated version of the game. It must be the laptop somehow...

    Problem with moving camera with keys or mouse

    You mean does she hold the arrow keys? Well, usually she just uses the mouse, but I've tested it with the keys and it bears the same results. You have to "hold" them for the camera to continue moving or else the camera stops moving. However, that's when it's working properly. Now if you...

    Problem with moving camera with keys or mouse

    On my wife's laptop, when she tries to move the camera view either by using the arrow keys or by putting the mouse cursor near the edge of the screen, the camera moves almost instantly all the way to the edge of the map in that direction. Changing sensitivity settings don't seem to make a...

    Any good RISK maps out there?

    Turns out the Risk map I downloaded is nothing like the Risk board game... well, that's what my friend said because I had him check it while I was away. What's "Risk - Asia" and how does "Soulchess" work? I love chess.

    Any good RISK maps out there?

    Once again, I apologize asking about something that has most likely been covered already. Not many relevant topics came up when searching for things like "risk map". In fact, I don't think any relevant topics came up. Anyway, can anybody lead me to good RISK map for Warcraft 3? I'm sure...

    When I make a gate larger, units can still walk through it!

    Well the idea is for the gate to block access to a bridge, and the gate must be the width of the bridge. The gate is supposed to be destroyed so that the units can get through. If I use pathing blockers, things just wouldn't work right.

    When I make a gate larger, units can still walk through it!

    I found that I can make a gate larger by going to Object Editor > Destructibles > Demonic Gate (vertical)... and change Maximum/Minimum scale. However, this only seems to change its visible appearance in the game. The only part of the gate that is actually solid and blocks units is a small...

    How do I let a player select units he owns and make them explode/die on command?

    I hear that term "leaked" a lot around here. What does it mean in this context?

    How do I let a player select units he owns and make them explode/die on command?

    As always, I apologize if this has been covered. I was unable to find it. Basically, I want a player to be able to select one more units of his own and type a chat message (such as "kill") to make them explode/die. I know how to do some of these things individually, but I can't figure out...

    How do I start teams in specific regions but at random start locations?

    Thanks for the reply! I actually got it figured out, mostly, just a bit ago. The players aren't started at a random spot but they can at least be on the same side as their team and still choose whichever color/race they want. It's close enough for me. Thank you!

    How do I start teams in specific regions but at random start locations?

    I'm new to map making, but I'm a quick learner, so if you can give me specifics on how I might accomplish this, it would really help. I built a big map with defined sides, east and west. Each side has four gold mines and I created starting locations at each gold mine. I want to have team...

    How do you change the amount of gold (or rate) players harvest/gather from gold mines

    This worked! Thank you! I was also able to find the similar section for the Night Elf race. There's a World Editor FAQ that's been spread around that has a question about this but doesn't answer it properly. Sure wish it people would fix that. Ah, I just got an email saying that Solu9...

    How do you change the amount of gold (or rate) players harvest/gather from gold mines

    Yup. Tried that too. Any other ideas? What if I tried creating a trigger? I tried, but I don't know how to create an event that would detect when a player's unit was mining/harvesting.

    How do you change the amount of gold (or rate) players harvest/gather from gold mines

    I appreciate the very quick reply. Anyway, I've tried that, but it doesn't change anything. I still only get 10 gold per second (tested with Undead).

    How do you change the amount of gold (or rate) players harvest/gather from gold mines

    EDIT: SOLVED This sounds likes it would be a simple thing to do, but I cannot figure it out. I've spent quite some time searching the net. So far I've read a lot of posts about people wanting to know how to change the total amount of gold a gold mine contains, but that's not my problem. I...
