Is there any way to make it so that a probe will not be able to pick up power-ups that spawn on the map?



None.

I don't think so... unless it already has something picked up. Make it pickup something your not using like a gas orb or something. Yeah, bad fix. xD Don't think theres any other way.

Wrong.
Disable the powerup and probes/drones/scv's will not be able to pick it up^^
I think that flags will crash.



Please report errors in the Staredit.Network forum.

Disabled Sprites, however, they can also be walked through.

Disabling it, however now it says that it is disabled.

Using the AI Junk Yard Dog does it, that one's my personal favorite.

So if i run AI junkyard dog on all power-ups for neutral, then they won't be able to be picked up by a probe?

Will they still be able to participate in triggers consisting of 'move 1 power-up for neutral from location x to location y?'



None.

Problem: You can't run AIs for players above 8, so you might have to go with the disable method, or you can place it as a disabled sprite and put a Dark Templar under it.

Oh_Man -- tthen u come to SCBW and it's like - upload WAV, play WAV.... sigh why cant it be that easy

Oh_Man -- and no consistent easy to use way to then play the audio either

Oh_Man -- where they use third party audioprogram called WWISE which basically makes adding audio extremely difficult

NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.

NudeRaider -- I mean yes, maps - through EUDs - were theoretically able to do that as well, but that was patched quickly.
