i was wondering how would i go about doing this and if it is even possible..

ex: i have a probe and build pylon at loc1
else where in the map there is a wraith randomly moving around

when i build pylon at loc1, pylon at loc1 will move to wraith's current location but wat if the wraith moves to the pylon that was moved and i create another pylon at loc1.

That would be pretty easy to make but I don't really get what you mean...I'd make it for you if you'd like...

sure. it is easy but the "difficult part" is wat if it stacks?

say i build pylon at loc1, pylon will move to random location of wraith(elsewhere in map)
i build another pylon at loc1, pylon moves.. to the same location of previous MOVED pylon. :O possible? also wat if the wraith moves over unbuildable terrain..



None.

It's simple. Make a condition that makes sure there is no pylon under the wraith already.

Here is an example map. ;)

Starcraft won't let you stack units with a trigger...and it really is quite easy. What would you be using this for anyway?



None.

is there a junkyard dog type of trigger for buildings?



None.

Lifted off buildings and missile turret direction can move.

The missile turret cannot move, it just has a turnable active overlay :P

Actually, if you run the Junk Yard Dog AI on a terran building, when it's in the middle of its landing phase, it will slide around on the ground :)

I wonder if the Make These Units Patrol AI makes them slide too...

hm... i see.. is there a way to have like 1 burrow lurker moving around randomly and another burrowed lurker elsewhere but horizontal to the other lurker move and do the same thing?



None.

Why lurker? You can't build on burrowed units manually. Not sure about triggers. Use cloaked flying unit instead.



None.

When I understand it correctly you want to mirror the other lurkers movements?

You could set up a coordinate grid system and order the lurks along random coordinates. The horizontal displacement can simply be achieved by adding a certain value to the x coordinate of the grid.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.
