I will be making them in a secluded area and will want to be moving them, from this area, to another area, then order them, then detect them, then kill them.

How do I do this? I know how to use scarabs... So how similar are the two?

HELLO EXPERT MAPMAKER.

They're the same.

Never said expert. And I've never used interceptors... Soooorrrryyyyy.

And thank you.

Falks site has a couple of interceptor maps to look at.

It's alright, I have them working. It's just another topic devilesk converted into a hate thread.

I delved through 7 pages of falks posts for nothing?!

Good references there.

Interceptors can be detected using bring or command, they move to the generic command point using the AI Patrol to Here, just like scarabs, but unlike scarabs, they aren't as random, they fly straight there. So all you have to do is have it detect when the interceptors make it to one point, and then set the generic command target to the next point and use the Patrol AI to make them go there. Then once they get to the last one, kill them.

Devilesk, if you cannot stop yourself from stirring up trouble, then just please leave the site now, as you'll save yourself time.

Heres another map that I made. I pretty much took what LegacyWeapon used for his Moving Scarbs map and literally just took out the Protoss Scarb and exchanged it for Protoss Interceptor. There is some other stuff in their as well that isn't really needed. You'll will see it.

Ooh I just submitted a tutorial about ordering Interceptors (and scarabs..)
Go take a look at it!
