Unit Ownership

In Starcraft, each unit is assigned to a particular player by color. For example, all units with blue team colors belong to the blue player.

When placing units in the Campaign Editor, you can use either the Tool Tree or the Brush Palette:

• If you are using the Tool Tree, you can place units for a different player by selecting a brush under that player’s folder.
  
  
• If you are using the Brush Palette, you must first change the selected player. You can do this by selecting a player in the Player menu or by pressing the corresponding number key.

For more information on placing units, see Placing Units.

To change a unit’s owner, select the unit or units you want to reassign and press a number key corresponding to a player. The units will change ownership to that player. Alternatively, you can use the Player menu instead of a number key. You can also change unit ownership in the Unit Properties dialog.

Note:

Start Locations cannot change ownership.

You cannot assign a unit of one race to a player of a different race.

You cannot assign a unit to a player if it would cause that player to use more than 200 Unit Slots.
