map making help

[dgb]

is there a map editor that can make map like the "black hark down" where units can be teleport right under an asigned air unit

The installed map editor can do that i believe. You have to be good at making maps though, which I am not :(

eh, its all to do with locations and triggers like

trigger 1
center location xx1 to <a specific unit> , preserve trigger

trigger 2
create <a specific unit> at location xx1

this is just a rough guide, what it does is make a unit under, around the location of a unit that has the location centered on it so if,

trigger 1
center location xx1 to observer , preserve trigger

that would center location xx1 to an observer. then a unit u select would spawn under the observer, but there are many variations and stuff u can do, this can be like if the person brought a unit to another location to trigger this effect. there are many ways to set off a trigger and do stuff and stuff :P

note: a location is that blue area u can make int he map maker, u drag an area out and it would be named something like location 01

does ne1 know how to stack minerals on top of each other ie:fastest moeny map

[[MPC]MeTwoWhat]

dgb, it depends, u want a large area effect or the same size as location xx1?
if u want same size u would add to same trigger kill all units within location xx1.
to make it only affect ground units there is a property ont he location u can set, it can affect ground or higherground or air u can select more than 1 or all.

the easiest way is to make a new location select size u want then make it ground only then name it xx2

trigger 1
center location xx1 to <a specific unit> , preserve trigger

trigger 2
create <a specific unit> at location xx1
kill all units <belonging to [player x]> in location xx2

iWiNuLoSeHa(8), thats a special prog that allows you to do it. Its popular, and probably easy to find. Look it up on google or something.
