1. This involves ICE. What I don't know about it is, how long is "1" tick? Is it 1 millisecond? Kind of like when you are making triggers as in: 1000=1 second? If that doesn't make sense tell me. What I want to know is, is 1 tick equivalent to the Wait (1000) trigger for StarEdit?

2. Is there a tutorial on what all of the functions are for ICE? If so, can someone give me a link or a TEXT file?

3. How do you change the units colors? Kind of like how O)FartyOneBillion did with his Green Archon?

More may be asked later. =/

3. You'll need to edit the graphic using a paint program. One that can change the hue is what I would recommend.

For your question three, if you need help with working out how to convert GRPs into BMPs and vice versa, take a look at this tutorial, it'll be quite relevant: http://www.staredit.net/index.php?tutorial=208


Something I didn't describe in that post about waits is, one way you can think of waits is, it's more like "Wait for x screen redraws." It's because this is all to do with animation. If it helps, use a different word for "wait" here, because it's not the same as it is in triggering.

That second tutorial was very helpful. You did a great job on writing that. Thanks a lot on there. That pretty much solved all my problems with ICE.
