16:46.16kmkkmkIs it possible to add the warp in effect to non warp units?
16:46.36kmkkmkLike is there a workaournd, to make it look like a corrupter is warping in?

16:52.45JademusSregSure.
16:53.22JademusSregFirst, you give it the warp in ability, so it will construct and gain life and shields for the duration.
16:53.38JademusSregSecond, you change it's Model - Build in the actor.
16:55.15Ashamedliezx
16:55.17Ashamedits a trap
16:55.28JademusSregOr, alternately, make a model actor (ModelAddition) with a model reference for warping in, and have the unit actor create it.
16:55.29kmkkmkWell and what model would you use, since there is no corrupter warpin model, right?
16:55.34JademusSregRight.
16:55.56JademusSregSo instead you would need to find a more generic warping in model, like the one used for warp transit.
17:13.09kmkkmkIt seems, that changing [Actor] Zealot: Art, Model, Build changes the warpin model, but [Actor] Corruptor: Art, Model, Build does NOT change it for the corruptor. Is there another actor besides the unit actor that is involved in zealot/corruptor warp in?
17:13.40JademusSregOdd. Anyway, notice my alternate suggestion.
17:13.48JademusSreg[11:55:33] <JademusSreg> Or, alternately, make a model actor (ModelAddition) with a model reference for warping in, and have the unit actor create it.

22:08.16Guest65080lol
22:08.35Guest65080HEy anyone know how to make it so that units wont spawn outside a region
22:08.48Guest65080Whoever set this up at blizzard was stupid...
22:09.00Guest65080i spawn units in a region because I want them in a region
22:09.00Guest65080lol
22:09.39kmkkmkmake what?
22:09.49kmkkmkyou insult blizzard, to me you sound stupid
22:09.56Guest65080I want the units to only spawn inside a region...
22:09.57JademusSregYou're spawning it at a point in the region.
22:10.05JademusSregIt spawns at the point.
22:10.13kmkkmkwell, then, spawn them within a region
22:10.20Guest65080yeah, but its spawning it outside the region
22:10.32kmkkmkoh wait, then you should change it, so they spawn inside
22:10.34Guest65080im trying to mass spawn 1400 units
22:10.37Guest65080at one time
22:10.39JademusSregUnitCreate doesn't take a region parameter. It takes a point parameter.
22:10.41kmkkmkyes, that is not stupid
22:10.45Guest65080They spawn both inside and out
22:11.07JademusSregSo it will create the unit at the closest point available to the designated point.
22:11.15Guest65080danget...
22:11.16Guest65080lol
22:11.28JademusSregAlso, it's ridiculous to spawn 1400 units at once.
22:11.30Guest65080is there anyway to spawn these units in the correct locations with regions?
22:11.48Guest65080Its to restart all units to the beginning
22:12.06JademusSregYou could disable check pathing and they'll all stack on top of one another.
22:14.11Guest65080http://5img.com/img843/6310/76terrain016.jpg
22:14.22Guest65080Thats what im trying to spawn
22:14.55Guest65080after the game is over, there wil be an option to restart the game, and it will respawn all the trees(medic right now) after destorying them
22:16.08JademusSregType /nick DudeBro
22:16.30Taintedwisplol
22:16.31JademusSregHaha
22:17.24TaintedwispSo any ideas?
22:17.32JademusSregAnyway, instead of recreating the units like that, I suggest some alternatives.
22:17.49TaintedwispAlright
22:19.10TaintedwispSo how else could this be done?
22:20.14JademusSregRevive, if applicable; spawn an intermediary dummy unit on death that is invulnerable, untargetable, and no draw and have it morph into the tree when you apply a behavior to it (by making the morph ability Automatic and give it a requirement for the behavior, which you will apply to them on restart); generate the units using a function that iterates through a set of points.
22:20.39JademusSregSo, three alternative approaches.
22:21.38TaintedwispActually I really like the first one
22:21.47Taintedwispsince there trees I can put stumps
22:21.49JademusSregbbl, preparing dinner
22:22.00Taintedwispand make the stumps turn to stumps at the end of the game
22:22.12TaintedwispStumps to trees
22:22.44TaintedwispHmm you just game me like 3 more cool ideas
22:22.45TaintedwispThanks
