I have seen basic tuorials on makig cinematics and am currently making one. I was searching through the triggers and my mind melted... Could someone please tell me how to create a unit using the wargate's "Warp In" effect?



None.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.

In the campaign dependency there is a superwarpgate (you can hide it in the preplaced unit's options) and an invisible pylon.
Together you should warp in every Protoss unit. You need to order the supergateway with triggers.

You can also order it for a neutral player and give the unit to the owner during the warp in animation, I guess...

Not all units show that warp in animation. So you may have to add something in data to call the warp in ability. :S
Some have the warp in animation removed with the Liberty.muli dependecy.

I also forgot to emntion that I only know how to work cameras and order units to do stuff... So how do I do this?

Have a look at the campaign mission TZeratul04.
There they used that building to warp in reinforcements in their scripted events.

In Mothership spawn trigger you can see another way to do that.

They placed the superwarpgate on the left side of the map.

None.

Hello

Easy. Place the Super-Warpgate somewhere on the map, preferable in a hidden spot. Add a pylon there to support it with energy.

Trigger "Issue order to unit" with Parameters:
Unit : Super Warp Gate
Order Type: Order POINT
Order : Super Warp Gate - Warp in UNIT
Queue : Replace existing orders.


If you are having problems I'd recommend to take a look at the basics again.

Ok, but how do you place it outside of map borders?



None.

Hello

Not needed. Though it should be possible while holding shift.

However: in the Data-Editor you can hide the Warpgate and set their placement-conditions to "(Nothing)".

Set the placement to (Nothing)? Creepy... Phantom Warpgate, just might work XD

EDIT: It won't let warp in units from it for some reason D:

Woah

Can't you just play the warp in effect on the model of the unit using triggers?

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
