Player 6 is a comp or nuturel play. i need to make the drones burrow. the burrow is already enabled for P6 but wether i make the drones in the editor and burrown them or creat them burrowed. they always appear unburrowed... they are never burrowed. any advice?

Although you can create them with the property of being burrowed, so that's always an option, and it should work as long as they have burrowing enabled.. But in case I'm wrong about that, you can try creating it burrowed for a computer, then giving it to the neutral player.

are there any AIs that might help like enter closest bunker? and i'v set the drone with burrowed properties.. it still startes off in game as unburrowed.

edit: still want to know abotu the AIs but my bad guys ^_^ i set burrow to "Allowed" not "researched" XD how ever. will AIs make idle zerg (burrowable) units burrow? and if so then wich ones?



None.

Um, you need to it to be Researched, then the units will burrow as long as no one is around.

neutral computers don't burrow automatically, but they still can be set with the burrowed property. Computers automatically burrow until an enemy comes nearby. If you set a computer AI, the units may gather and attack their opponents.
I told him to MAKE SURE it was default researched, because that is the most common cause of this problem.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
