Example 1:

Place "Terran command Center" in editor
Place "Terran nuclear silo" in editor

Result 1: nuclear silo is attached to command center


Example 2:

Create unit "Terran command Center" at ... (by trigger)
Create unit "Terran nuclear silo" at ... (by trigger)

Result 2: nuclear silo is not attached to command center

Question: how to attach nuclear silo to command center by triggers? Buildings are owned by computer, so "lift off and land manually" - is not an option

Thanks

Not possible unless they are right next to each other.

If you create the addon before the Command Center, they will be attached.
If you create the Command Center before the addon, they will not be attached.

That's just how SC works.

You can however move the CC to another spot and move it back beside the add-on via trigger to get it to attach.
Just another option depending on his needs for the map.

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.
