When I left I kept information from you guys such as a way to create the lockdown effect and create the stasis freeze effect without having anything in them. Purely the effect. These are the easiest to do but I’m sure there could be others effects that are doable like ensnare. I decided if anyone is interested in this type of effect I will leak the information. But me just giving the information to you doesn't help you to not think outside the box, never imagine, and never discover for yourself.
Brainstorm with me.
So the question is how does one create the desired effect listed above on a target using triggers or in game ai scripts?
Next, how to take that unit away without damaging the effect that is currently on that unit?
Hints:
Only can be done using a BC.
Done using triggers.

Use computer AI provocation to cast spell on disabled Battlecruiser pointing down..
There, now there is nothing to 'leak'

You're leaking? Gross. Get a butt plug and don't make topics about it.
If you have actual mapping concepts to discuss, just discuss them already and leave the forum games to Null.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
