Invisible Photo Cannons

Nuclear Clan

1) Enable Pylon Building Range at "Location 1"

2) Build Photo Cannon

3) Enable Inviciblity

4) Remove 1 Nexus at "Location 2"

5) Move Photo Cannon to "Location 2"

If did correctly in a map the "Photo Cannons will fire at incoming enemies. Do not take credit for the "Invisible PC" if you have read this.
Thank You,

Ok. Follow the rules up there ^. If that doesnt work then try something else. Do the something you do with the bunkers but different Buildings. Do you no how to enable to "Pylon Rage" in a certain are?

Pylon Range? i dont get it.

Build a pylon so you can build stuff?

Report, edit, etc...Posted by nL_Secret on 2006-02-26 at 15:17:57

OK. To make the Pylon Range you must 1st create a "Pylon". Then have a trigger that says move all "Pylon" at 'Location 1' to 'Location 2' The Pylon Range will still be there and buildings can be created on the area w/ missing pylon.

Tell me wat u dont get. do you know how to do the pylon range??

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Noober on 2006-02-26 at 19:12:50

I got the pylon aura thing to show after I moved the pylon, but I can't build on it.

Ok, the cannons move but don't attack. This doesn't work... unless I'm doing something wrong.

oh nvm it does work
from where the pylon used to be, these pulse cannons attack the units
its same as the bunkers

I still don't get it. When the pylon moves, nothing can be build on the pylon range.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by EcHo on 2006-02-26 at 22:00:25

then create it with triggers

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Noober on 2006-02-27 at 15:15:11

Nope, still can't build on it.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by AgenT_Nick on 2006-02-27 at 15:57:05

lets see i did the same thing but it wont work. maybe its the tileset? what tileset did you discover this on?

here is what i mean [attachmentid=17603]

So now for the real question...
Would this work for pylonless cannons? (Where you enable them?)

Report, edit, etc...Posted by HeRtZ on 2006-02-27 at 19:07:52

Rantent silly poo, its Laps, but anyways you can enable all photon cannons with triggers, you don't need pylons!

And i have seen cloaked cannons before.

Report, edit, etc...Posted by AgenT_Nick on 2006-02-27 at 19:44:37

its not cloaked its invisible. like the invisible bunkers

Wtf are you talking about
Build it with trigger after you move the pylon
It works for me

Anyways i think this should be in concept

Report, edit, etc...Posted by AgenT_Nick on 2006-02-28 at 15:40:08

here are my triggers

CODE

Always();
-----------
MoveLocation(location 1, Photon Cannon, CurrentPlayer, Cannon area);
PreserveTrigger();

CODE

Bring(CurrentPlayer, AtLeast, 1, Photon Cannon, location 1);
-----------
SetInvincibility(Enable, Photon Cannon, CurrentPlayer, location 1);
RemoveUnitAtLocation(1, Missile Turret, P2, location 2);
MoveUnit(1, Photon Cannon, CurrentPlayer, location 1, location 2);
PreserveTrigger();

CODE

Always();
-----------
CreateUnit(1, Pylon, Zerg Spawn, CurrentPlayer);
Wait(1000);
MoveUnit(1, Pylon, CurrentPlayer, Pylon Start, location 2);

thats what i exactly have and the 3rd triggers is the spawning of the pylon
