Hi,

I'm working on a map to help muta chase microing where player 1 controls a mutalisk who has to chase down certain units with high hp and kill them before they reach the end of a path.

My question is, is there a way to make it so the firebat and marine use stim pack to get down the path more quickly?

Thanks a ton



None.

Computer marines will use stim packs if they 1). have the ability enabled and researched and 2). are attacked and begin to return fire and 3). have more than 10 health. But there's no "Use Stim Packs Here" action or script.



None.

They use stim pack if they fight against units with 80(?)+ HP.



None.

Place a unit for them to attack in some area, let them attack it, then move them to the area you want them to attack. Stim only lasts 10 seconds, so they will only have 10 seconds of speed.

Rockz,

Oh wow that's really clever. Maybe I'll make a really low hp unit appear with the rine/bat, have them stim-kill it, then run the path, and every 10 seconds make a new low hp unit spawn for them to kill and re-stim. Thanks a lot, and thanks to everyone else for your input, even though you pretty much told me it's impossible <_<

I also think there's a way to do if with memory grafting but I'm not too keen on that... Oh well... If anyone is I'd appreciate some tips about making units stim and then run somewhere.



None.

If you have low hp, they won't stim. And I'd only do it once. You ideally want them to move as fast as possible, and making them stim again would just waste time.

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.

Symmetry -- I vaguely remember Voy doing some ACE back in the day, but I had no idea EUDs could do that kind of shit. I am very much catching up on the technology

Symmetry shouted: NudeRaider Is EUD editor capable of writing shit onto the player's harddrive? That seems like it would be dangerous
yeah an editor that isn't allowed to write files sounds rather pointless, so I'd assume it can. Like most other programs too btw. and yes, obviously that's dangerous, but also kinda necessary. MS introduced that virtualization for exactly that reason.

Ultraviolet -- I don't think so. I think they shut that shit down after 1.16, maybe even earlier
