Peasant carrying wood??

[Rinpun]

Is there anyway I can make a peasant carrying wood a doodad or something? I making a LoaP map (a base, I'm going to hand it out for others to trigger it and put it under their own names) and my construction site needs construction workers carrying something besides standing still. So...is there anyway I can do this?

You can't make it a doodad, but have you tryed making an invisible tree, settings the harvest duration to 0.01, and letting them sit there? If there's no Town Hall nearby, they'll stop harvesting and sit there. I'd make them harvest at Map Initilization, that way it won't look odd if they're throwing their axe at an empty space.

An invisible...tree?

Well I guess the best I can do is make one of my construction doodads LIKE a tree.

1) Thanks for getting back to me fast

2) I guess I'll leave this to the people who want to work with this after I have the buildings set up. I'll have a few notes of stuff you can do to improve upon it as a few of my ideas.

If all else fails, you could always put "lumber" in your peasants' "required animation names".
That won't make them do anything, but they will constantly be carrying some lumber around...

Use AceHart's way, I never would've thought of that, it's alot easier.

That's cool

I don't want them doing anything (maybe patrol)--they're decoration.
