No way. Unit sprites are clickable and can be affected,
pure sprites are just images and can not be affected.

Don't worry just make it clickable. People know how limited sc is and won't banish your map for it. :P

ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

Disabled terran buildings will cloak, but they won't disappear from view (they won't completely cloak) until you see their cloaked form. When you can't see them, you will only see the building, but you can't click on it. The shadow will still be there, no matter what.

That means you can disable a terran factory which is lifted. It will show the terran factory in the air, but nobody can click on it, except for people with detectors. Once it is spotted by a detector, then the detector is removed, it will then disappear into the fully cloaked form and blur out units underneath.

Depends on what units you are trying to do it to, which unit is it?



None.

For this specific case i tried a Hive/ Overmind (shell).
But genrrraly it would be good to know for buildings/units.

Overmind (shell) is disableable, so do that, but never let people see it.

thanks for the tip with the doodad state. i thought a disabled overmind got a crash effect.

Well, i guess for standard zerg buildings is no way.

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
