I'm designing a minigame for my map in production, and for this particular game, I need to be able to detect when a unit burrows, but it shouldn't count as a burrow when it gets picked up by a dropship(or overlord[hero] to be precise)...

Right now i have the standard burrow detection triggers in my map, but i'm thinking I need to add more conditions and a ground location to test if the zergling is still on/in the ground location???

I guess my questions are, when a zergling is in an overlord, can it be detected via "brings"?
and what location layer(low/med/high ground or low/med/high air) is a zergling on when he burrows and when he unburrows?



None.

Actually I got it. I just made an air only location and only had the burrowed trigger fire if bring 0 zergling to air.



None.

Right, you solved it yourself :)
When unit is burrowed it is still on ground location, the elevation (low/mid/high) depends on the tile.



Some.

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
