Is there a way for me to make the nexus emit a Pylon Field?
Also, is there also a way for a Pylon to be exclusively placed within a pylon field? So there's like a chain of sorts starting from the nexus and it links towards the other pylons. If one of those pylons got destroyed, the other pylons go unpowered aswell as the buildings inside it since it lost its connection to the nexus.
Sort of wish that the SCBW Modding Community was still active. </3
Making a pylon require the field is easy ... in DatEdit there is a Requires Psi flag in the Advanced units.dat settings. For making a nexus provide the pylon aura, you can try changing the AI actions to match the pylon. I'm not sure what effects this will have or if it will work. Making the pylons go unpowered might be more difficult and require EXE editing, but I'm not sure.

It works! I'm not really too worried about the unpowered part, so I can let that slip.
However, a new problem, of which I'm sure was bound to happen, came up. This one's beyond my modding skills, I'm afraid. the Protoss AI does nothing except build probes and gather. Any work around on this? Or am I forced to construct my own AI for the protoss because of a change in gameplay? xD

I'm not sure what "Script (Computer)" does that gets replaced, but it could just be that the AIs don't know where to build pylons now.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
