i need a way to create an interceptor and have it roam around the map aimlessly, but for some reason i can not create an interceptor at the start of a game. (without a carrier, using only triggers)

help me out, i have seen it done

You can't create many extended units, one being an Intercepter (I think).

Edit: The tutorial says Reavers/Scarabs. Just change Reaver to Carrier and Scarab to Interceptor.

first of all, have several carriers, and have them attack at a nexus. Move the interceptors above the Nexus to where you want the interceptors to spawn. Also, make sure you set the hangar to 10 constantly, and set the hp of the nexus to 100% constantly.

see what you need to do is put a set of carriers in one part of the map and have a location around them.. make a trigg that moves all intercepts from that location to somehwere else and then make another trigg that set s them on junk yard dog and that should do the trick.

The tutorial says
QUOTE(apparently me (shit))
In order to make this work, you first need to make Reavers of Carriers attack something to get the Scarabs/Interceptors out first.


That doesn't even make since. "make Reavers of Carriors Attack?"

How about making it say something like this instead.

QUOTE(me right now)
In order for you to use Scarabs/Interceptors you will need to have the Reaver/Carrior Attack another unit in order to get Scarabs/Interceptors out of their mothership.  Then you will move the Scarabs/Interceptors elsewhere.  You CANNOT simply preplace the Scarabs or Interceptors.


Feel free to make it sound better.

Heh, Bolt is such a perfectionist when it comes to maps and descriptions. But not when it comes to spelling. tongue.gif

I want things to be spelled correctly in tutorials and other 'lasting' publications such as maps, webpages, and other things.

I try to spell things correctly here, in post, but I don't stress out over it. If you talk to me in chat live or something then I could care less.

I do the same. You should see the difference between some of the tutorial submissions and their end product tongue.gif
