Is there a way to essentially do this?

Unit - Create 1 Auto-Turret for player (Killing player) at (Center of Region Attached to (Dying Unit)) facing (Random angle) degrees (Ignore placement)

I can't seem to find a way to call the Region that's attached to the dying unit.. just the unit that's attached to a specified region.

Any thoughts?

None.

Don't bother with the region. You just need the point of the dying unit, correct? Regions shouldn't be handled if you're just concerned with a specific point.

DeadUnitReplaced
    Events
        Unit - Any Unit dies
    Local Variables
        DeathPoint = (Position of (Triggering unit)) <Point>
    Conditions
        (Unit type of (Triggering unit)) == Auto-Turret
    Actions
        Unit - Create 1 Auto-Turret for player (Killing player) at DeathPoint facing (Random angle) degrees (Ignore Placement)

If you need an area of the region for some other reason, you can create it dynamically using "Convert Circle to Region" or "Convert Rectangle to Region."

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.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
