While working on a newer project i discovered a minor glitch that allows a flag (owned by player 12) to share vision with the human players. The odd part about is, only the flag allows the shared vision.

How this happend:
I had just started the first triggers for my map, the basic run ai at location being junkyard.
This was the ONLY triggers in the map.

Player 6 had scv's roaming throughout the city, when they pick up the player12 flag the scv who picked it up shares vision with the human players. I'll attach the map as proof, please note that this is a map i'm working on so yeah....

P.S if the scv doesn't get close enough to the flag to pick it up re-host the map until one of then runs across it randomly.



None.

Hello

O rly?? I think this is known by anyone... you don't need to post it ^^ maybe there's an entry in the wiki.
Anyway... can someone tell me the EUD to "set PLAYER UNIT vision with PLAYER"
so for example p2 can see a special scv from p1... that must be possible... because Parasite has the same effect :)
by the way... when you parasited a SCV, and a medic blinds that SCV, does the parasite still exist? or does the parasit-player see only a small range of the SCV? [like it's blinded]
sorry, I'm too lazy to test at the moment (also too busy)



Please report errors in the Staredit.Network forum.

I tested the blind parasited unit and it shows the blinded view.

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

I seem to recall in stacked cannon d 5 way, you would stack while still being able to see by picking up a flag and turning off the lights. the probe/scv holding the flag can still see, while everything else is off. I nver knew p12 exhibited similar properties.

That's the reason why Cat and Mice maps that give a fawk about what the hell they are have a trigger that kills/removes P12 flags.



None.

You just put a P12 flag and a worker picks it up and the player controlling the worker has vision to the flag? Or is there more to it?



None.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
