Have a really slow air unit like a Carrier represent a log, which is a reversed version of vehicles.

E.g., if any player brings at least 1 vehicle to a 1x1 location moving with Frogger, you die.

However, if you bring at least 1 Frogger to "River" and any player brings 0 Carriers to a 3x3 location (bigger to make it easier to follow) moving with Frogger, you die.

Maybe you should also have a trigger that orders the zergling to stay under the carrier, as in the real game, we just sit on logs and it takes us down the river. But if the log reaches the end of the map, we die.

No, because then you won't be able to hop off, as you'd always be ordered to follow the Carrier.

Thats a good idea but, this mean i cannot make it on water becaus zergling cannot go on water...

Just use the Twilight tileset's Dirt for water, since it's blue.

What do you think... if i make zergling transform into overlord for follow carrier on water??? Is it a good idea?

ADDITION:
Ok, twilight is a good idea! Before i continue, can you say me how do i post a map?

ADDITION:
ok, another thing, should i put other units than carrier for do like in the real game? i mean, in the game, logs have not the same speed...

To post a map, first click "Browse" next to the add attatchments bar. Then, look for Starcraft under program files, and go into the maps folder. Then, choose the map you want, press, open, then click "Add attatchment."

That's wrong, of course you can hop off. There's nothing preventing you from overriding the move command.

Except for the order trigger command on preserve...

Woot someones finally making the frogger map!

Froggercraft will be a hard map to follow up on so you had better make it good.

I do have Mini frogger, has anyone else played that? Maybe I should put it in the DLDB i don't think its there.

simple... make a grid of locations, and a movement pad.
Use ur corsair to swarm a beacon to move to move in a direction.
its much more easier to do this than wot i think u planned on doing

Edit: I have decided to make a maximum level of a building/research for 2 reasons:

1. it will decrease how many triggers i will have to use
2. it will decrease the time needed to make the map.

The max level is 20.
The max level is mainly for that the players can check how many things they have. like a lvl of something.
