I was wondering how to get a unit to spawn a certain distance away from another unit.
Like say for example player 1 control a marine.
Every 'x' number of seconds a zergling appears in front of it.
I want to be able to do this using triggers rather than preplacing units on ground.
And I know I can't the zerglinf at a location constantly following the marine, because then It would create the zergling right uner or next to it.
I just need the zergling to spawn a certain distance away from the marine
no matter where in the map as long as it can be created.
Is there a way possible?

Yes, download my Tests Compilation and play the Mobile Grids map in it, it will show you how to do just what you want. If you need more explaination, or the link doesn't work, post back :P

and before that I downloaded a file with nothing in it except more errors :[

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.
