[SOLVED] Units aren't showing up.

I wasn't expecting to need to ask about this, but I'm awfully confused.

In my map I'm making, I have some units placed for a friendly/neutral AI (Player 6). It consists of three beacons, a zealot, hydralisk, marine, depot, pylon, and a spawning pool. I have a trigger made to disable the doodad states of the three beacons.

That is the only trigger. Starting locations are placed, and player 1 (Red) starts with a civilian. When testing the map, all units for Player 6 do not show up on the map, but player 1 shows up just fine. The trigger doesn't have an effect on the units. Starting locations are placed, there are no placement problems (editor says they're placed correctly with no "Place Anywhere" options turned on), just.. wtf?

I've tested having Player 6 as a Neutral and a Computer. It was previously Player 12, and showed up fine as that, but I can't trigger player 12 (and am not interested in learning how atm.)

Screens:

Easier to Read: Player 6 doesn't show up on the map in-game under any circumstances whatsoever. Starting location is placed, no triggers in the map, no placement problems. Player 6 is a computer in Player 1's force, but it doesn't show up in any other forces either. Was previously neutral with the same problem. Why?

If the player is set to a computer you shouldn't have trouble having the units show up, otherwise posting the map would help :)

Also make sure you are hosting as Use Map Settings (new screenies)

Under options, map load, deselect remove illegal units

The only thing selected is 'Correct Doodads'.

I attached the fail to the first post.

EDIT: If it helps, I'm testing this on Bnet, not single player.



None.

I figured it out. Apparently, I need to restart SC after saving my map in order to properly test it. Odd, but it worked. Thanks for your help.

That is wierd... make sure you aren't playing the map when you save it

That shouldn't happen. Did you save it while the map was still open in SC? That would prevent it from saving properly.

Edit: Wow, ninja'd by 2 seconds lol.

haha for sure. in some ways it's even more exciting because you can play EUD maps on regular battle.net, don't need to convince someone to download your mod to play with you. what did you do?
