If you don't actually need them crossing a river (you could make an imaginary one or something), you could have a trail of burrowed zerglings that are all really close to each other and the have a super small location always being centered on the unit crossing the river. Then, you could make a trigger that sees if a zergling is not brought to the location, and if that happens, the unit 'falls' and dies. Like so:



I used the sprites as a representation of the rope; you can probably do the same. Of course, I'm sure there are much better ways of making this more precise, but simplicity never hurt. ;O

Here's a very simplistic map to show you what I'm talking about. You'd want to make the location smaller to make it more precise, but don't make it too small or the unit may die even if he appears to be on top of a zergling. Like I said, there are much better ways to do this, but this one is quick and easy. ;o

If you want it to look a tiny bit more like a river, you can use walkable null tiles and then use the pylon psi field sprites to make it look like water. Like so:

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
