2 Questions: Damage Area + Disabling The Abilites to Build/Upgrade/Research

[zaqer50]

Alright, first question, relatively simple:

Is it possible to make the Unit - Damage Area command deal damage only to enemies of the unit? Or is there another way to do something similar do this that is possible?

Secondly, I seem to remember there being an action that disables Building/Researching/Upgrading on buildings, but I can't seem to find it anymore. Am I just imagining things, or is there actually a way to do this?

Any help is much appreciated.

hey I had this same issue a long time ago and If I'm right then this line of jazz will disable a building from creating or making units (I'm not sure for upgrading etc..) If that was what you where looking for

call IssueImmediateOrderById( GetTriggerUnit(), 851976 )

If I use that, is there anyway to enable building later on?

hmmm lemme think :S I'm not quite sure I haven't used it in a long time

1.

Actions
    Unit Group - Pick every unit in ([COLOR="DarkSlateBlue"]Units in (Playable map area[/COLOR]) matching (((Picked unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) Equal to True)) and do (Actions)
        Loop - Actions
            Unit - Cause (Triggering unit) to damage (Picked unit), dealing 500.00 damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

Change the Units in (Playable map area)to wherever you want the area to be.

Next one is coming up.

Oh, I shouldn't have double posted, but here are some triggers that could possibly help.

2.

Actions
    Unit - Set (Triggering unit) upgrade progress to 0%
    Unit - Set (Triggering unit) construction progress to 0%

I hope they help. And for the researching part, maybe an invisible Frost Wyrm might help (Frost Wyrm's Freezing Breath [or whatever it is called] has the ability to pause/stop the progress of a building's research, training, or construction [someone correct me if I am wrong]).

I do not believe that there is a action that specifically disables buildings/research etc... but what exactly are you trying to do? (maybe someone can give you a suggestion)
