How do I make all the units a person buys in my map appear under an ovie and when the ovie moves they still appear under the ovie wherever it is?

Constantly center a location on the overlord and move all units owned by that player to the overlord. This won't work if you have a lot of units, as only some will be able to be moved.

yea center a location on overlode then when u buy somethin create the units in that location.

Or create them elsewhere and then move them under the overlord (to save triggers).

What if you just create it at anywhere, the place where you purchase the unit, or any other location that the unit can be spawned at?

you know it would be cool if you like had a drop ship load the unit and you can drop it off somwhere

You only need to move the location onto the Overlord when a unit needs to be moved under it right?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Toothfariy on 2005-09-09 at 16:06:29
right... but i was saying it would be cool if it was like preloaded. so when you revice ur ovi it had guys in it, and when you buy stuff too. so like u give it to player 8 and he loads the bought unit and it's given to you and placed in ur spot. (im assumeing this is a defense) wouldn't that be orginal?

For Preloaded Overlords.
Say Your Unit Options Are Ghost, Marine, Zealot and Zergling. At The Start Of The Game You Create Those Units Under The Overlord And Run AI Script Enter Transport.
Now, Have A Location Always Following The Overlord, Location X.
Now Say You Want To Purchase A Zergling, And You Want It To Cost 5 Minerals. Use A Trigger Like This: Current Player Brings Exactly 1 Zergling To Location X, And The Current Player Has At Least 5 Minerals... Set Reasources For The Current Player (Subtract 5 Ore) And Create 1 Zergling For The Current Player And Have That Zergling Enter The Transport.
Say The Player Does Not Have Enough Ore: The Current Player Brings Exactly One Zergling To Location X, And He Has At Most, 4 Minerals. Run AI Script Enter Transport And Display Text: "You Do Not Have Enough Resources."
Simple Enough.
Can Also Be Altered So You Purchase Units With A Civilian In A Specified Area Of The Map. This Would Make It Much Easier To Set The Requirments For Buying Units And It Would Eliminate The Need To Have Units Already In The Overlord.

Please don't capitalize every word. It makes it a chore to read. And yes, the dropship system is good for buying units.

See, there're some things that we're used to, and some that we're just not. Just because a few people are used to capitalize every word (or the freakish thing I did above) does not mean everyone else should be used to reading them.

capitalizing letters inside a word is hard 2 read but if it's the first letter is much easier
omg i just realized the title of this paper has capitalize letters at the beginning of a word.
hehehe i found more look.
