How do I make Obs on a map, like LT, without the game ending in defeat for the obs or them having buildings?

First of all before you make any kind of UMS map, you have to delete the triggers Blizzard put as a default that way you can have no buildings and stillf be in the game.

It's imposible not to have a trigger like the one stated where you have no buildings and you get defeat, and still get those effects.
You must still have it somewhere, or some other trigger is interfering.
Make sure you are playing in UMS and not Melee.

Just have one of your friends send you an unlocked obs map. They aren't that hard to find.

Wow, there has been three topics like this one with a topic title that doesn't say much... I am surprised this one hasn't been locked/deleted yet

Is it possible that he's been getting "draw" as opposed to "defeat?" In that case, he'd need a trigger to never declare a draw or something.

Ok... the triggers for an observer map...
-First make a trigger so the observer can see the fighters units and, well, observe.
Now... We make sure that the default triggers are deleted and use this trigger instead of the default "0 buildings for all players = defeat for that player" trigger.
Since the trigger does not execute for the observers, It does not affect them, so they would not immedatly recieve a "Defeat" message because they are observing.
