ok well first i should tell u why i need the help. im making an arena type map but im adding special abilities. one of them is that 2 scarabs will appear from the players unit.
when you die you get to choose a new unit. this is where the problem is. i dont know how to make the location that will be centered on the players units(they will only command one) when they respawn each time.
can anyone help?

I don't quite under stand what you mean by the 2 scarab thing, but I hink I can help with your movement trigger.

It would be like he trigger mentioned by Vindexus. I don't think you can make 2 scarabs at that location. You have to have them somewhere else coming out of reavers, and move 2 of them to the location. I guess that might work.

| Actions: |
| ¤ movelocation scarab on location1 for currentplayer at anywhere Create (unit is the fighter) at location for currentplayer wait(1000); Create 2 scarab at location1 for currentplayer Preserve trigger |
If the scarabs are following the fighter do this.

ok i shouldve said it in more detail. each player commands two civilians and i have the reavers shooting the scarabs and teleporting them to a location. i just want the location following each plaers unit on the battlefield. thanks for those suggestions already though.

Players
Condition:
Player commands atleast 1 "the unit you want the location following"
Action:
(Move Location)
Center Location Label "follow" on "the unit you want the location following" at "Anywhere"
PreserveTrigger
Optional:
Condition:
Player commands atleast 1 "the unit you want the location following"
Action:
Center View at "follow"
PreserveTrigger();
These Thing have already been mentioned by it does make the location follow the unit.
Or... If you want it like this
Players:
Player commands atleast 1 "the unit you want the location following"
Action:
(Move Location)
Center Location Label "follow" on "the unit you want the location following" at "Anywhere"
PreserveTrigger
Players:
Players command atmost 0 "the unit you want the location following"
Action:
Create 1 "the unit you want the location following" at Follow.
PreserveTrigger
Dont use Always condition. otherwise it messes things up.

Okay, I didn't read all the posts, but...
Just have 1 follow trigger for every unit he can be.
Like if you can choose Firebat, Zergling, and Zealot, than just have:
PLayer commands 1 Lot
Move Location
Player Commands 1 Ling
Move Location
Player commands 1 Bat
Move Location

ok thanks for the help but one more thing, is there a way to make it just one trigger or should i just make it multiple triggers?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by NeoNightmareX on 2004-09-19 at 17:51:44
there is a way but i say make multiple, because the game triggers might be confused cause it might perform the action 3 times (one for each unit)

c: always
a: center location labeled x on unit x at anywhere
i think thats how u do it but the scarabs or whatever will appear on the unit which would be the middle of the location they wont appear in front of him
