Like how they use this <d ref="Effect,SeekerMissileDamage,Amount"/> for the raven seeker missile damage.



None.

I guess it's pretty simple.

<d ref="data type,data name,field name" />

Now, I don't have the Data Editor next to me. You will maybe need to put the Data Editor into "Display Raw Values" mode. It's one of the 6 buttons at the top-center of the Data Editor window.

<d ref="Unit,Marine,Movespeed"/> should return 2.25 or whatever the value is.
<d ref="Ability,Blink,Cooldown"/> should return 8 or whatever the value is.
<d ref="Effect,LongboltMissilePersistent,Period"/> should return 2.

Again, I don't have access to the data editor, but judging by your post - that is how it operates.



None.

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

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
