Ok so I have a basic defense map here. I want to know how to make it so when you get a seige tank you can put it into tank mode or seige mode. What I am doing is its like kills get you money. You can use the money to buy special units. One of these units is a tank. Once you get the created tank you cannot place it in Tank mode or Seige mode either way you have it start out at. Does someone know how can I make a trigger to have it where I can have it both in seige mode or tank mode whenever I want?

Disable seige mode. (go to player settings i think in staredit)

They are 2 different units. You spawn them seperately...

Could you please be more clear on your question?

He said he didnt want sieged tanks to be able to unsiege and unsieged tanks to be able to siege.

Yeah, disable siege. Then make the unit for a computer player that does have siege and give it to the player.

First, enable the siege mode research but don't make it 'researched'

When you buy the unit, make it you buy a General Duke Tank. (which will have the siege mode researched because its a hero)

Then once a player brings a sieged General Duke Tank to anywhere, center a location on it and remove it. Then create a normal siege tank (siege mode) at that location. And because the technology is enabled, but not researched thus the normal tank will not be able to unsiege again. smile.gif

Either create the tank in unsieged or in sieged mode.

Is that a problem that you want to get rid of, or what you want it to do?
If you want players to be able to unsiege and siege as they wish, then make sure that siege mode is researched for them. Siege mode is researched for hero tanks, as long as it is enabled, regardless of the player's research status.
If you don't want them to be able to siege or unsiege, then disable siege mode.
If you want players to be able to siege but not unsiege, or vice versa, use screwed's method above: [snapback]172781[/snapback].

You cannot have a tank both in siege mode and in tank mode at the same time.
Otherwise see above.

If your question hasn't been answered yet, then you need to clarify it.
