I just discovered that if you constantly trigger a unit to transmission, with no strings in the command, it will look like the unit is already clicked. The unit will have a ring around it. I dunno what use it could have though...
It could be used to mark someone important? Like NPC's in RPG's.
Does this work with hyper triggers? If so then I can see some uses for it ... I can use it in my upcoming map too.
Or it could be used to mark a targeting spot for spells.
Combination spells maybe...?
It doesn't ALWAYS display with hyper triggers but it does blink, I think I will use it...
I think the crashing is because you set always display to some other number then 4 or something like that.
Anyway, chu, I think it might be not working because you actually have a wav in the transmission. I just said ,"", in starfoge for the wav part. If thats not it then I'm not sure what exactly is happening different.
What about the minimap pings would get annoying. I happens every transmission
u can put no waves in scxe too, just put a wave it in then when u finished the trigger, delete the wav n go back 2 trigger n enable it.
Pings is the only problem. Rantent, I had my hypers setup wrong, they were firing at a slowed rate.
Pings aren't that bad are they?
Also, your "center location" point is moved when you do a transmission, meaning when you place the space bar, your screen will center view upon your start location, or the location when the last transmission occured.
This "spacebar" shortcut could be quite handy if used correctly.

Nope, I'm sure I put 4. I actually thought about it for 5 minutes
:S
New map, Don't Look at the Dot or press Space bar!!!
The spacebar shortcut works for trigger-induced transmissions too?
I thought it only worked for "natural" ones(building complete, research complete, your base is under attack, etc)...
I can't really think of anything that that could be used for that you couldn't do with minimap-pings or center-screen triggers though...
No, it doesn't work for trigger induced ones unless Blizzard changed that with the new patch.
ADDITION:
Oh yeah, transmission triggers running on 0ms time and on hypers will run half as much as normal triggers. So for every 1 time a transmission trigger runs a normal trigger will run twice.
i saw it used in some maps marking locations like you gota go to some place marked with that sign or somethin.
off topic could some1 explain how does dont look at the dot work ?
