>be faceless void >mfw I have no face

Hey guise,

I'm trying to move the command card around. Not the graphics, just the black bit where the buttons are placed. Now, the file to edit would seem to be the one in C:/Program Files/StarCraft II/Mods/Core.SC2Mod
In that MPQ, it's in Base.SC2Data/UI/Layout/UI/GameUI.SC2Layout

I can edit that file fine, my question is, how do I let a map or mod use it so that the changes apply to just one map or mod, and not to the entire game?

Cheers

Using the editors importer should do the trick, afaik.

None.

Tried that, the file was already there from me manually placing it there via an MPQ editor. I re-imported it anyway. Still didn't work, might be that I just didn't edit it correctly, or perhaps you can't override UI stuff

What about you screenshot the command card when its empty, change extension to .tga, import, and set the background image of a dialog to it? ;o

I want command card functionality, not looks. E.g. hotkeys.

Ultraviolet -- just sent you a message on Discord. I suspect you're probably trying to change unit speeds for units that don't use flingy.dat for movement (like any units that walk instead of hovering/flying). You can change their movement to flingy, but they unfortunately look more like they're gliding than walking when you do that.

Symmetry -- EE2, I've been using setdatfile successfully for units.dat and weapons.dat but the flingy changes don't seem to happen

[05:25 pm]

Ultraviolet -- in EE2 you just open DatEdit, go to the flingy tab, and make whatever changes you want. Though if you want to do dynamic shit, you have to use the trigger editor with the setdatfile action. And of course you have to inject your changes when done. Can give more specific troubleshooting advice if you provide more details

Symmetry shouted: why can't I seem to make eud editor change flingy.dat D:

Are you using EE2 or EE3?
