I was wondering how to get a unit to spawn a certain distance away from another unit.
Like say for example player 1 control a marine.
Every 'x' number of seconds a zergling appears in front of it.
I want to be able to do this using triggers rather than preplacing units on ground.
And I know I can't the zerglinf at a location constantly following the marine, because then It would create the zergling right uner or next to it.
I just need the zergling to spawn a certain distance away from the marine
no matter where in the map as long as it can be created.
Is there a way possible?

Yes, download my Tests Compilation and play the Mobile Grids map in it, it will show you how to do just what you want. If you need more explaination, or the link doesn't work, post back :P

and before that I downloaded a file with nothing in it except more errors :[

Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating

NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
