Staredit Network -> Concepts -> StarEdit Color Glitch?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Weasel on 2006-01-29 at 22:30:16
I have a Macintosh computer, so I can't get much for StarEdit programs.
I use StarEdit Emerald, with flying addons, and I found a weird glitch(?) for making player 8 two colors. I haven't tested it in games yet, due to laziness, but I will in good time.

Place two or more units anywhere, making sure that the units are controlled by multiple players. I selected the units, and made them invincible. I clicked ok, and when it returns to the basic screen, the unit just selected are a weird, different color. And if you click on them again, it says they are owned by player 8. While there are other player 8 units that are the basic yellow color. I don't think it works on every terrain though. I know it doesn't on desert. I guess it depends on the terrain for color and if it works.

Pictures!

1. Showing all the units of different colors, selected.. Aside the basic yellow, Player 8.

2. All of units, clicked and property box comes up. Note no owner, and non-invincible.

5. Showing that the pink is player 8, next to the yellow Player 8 (When yellow and pink are selected together, there is no owner shown..)

Did you test out the map in a game?

I finally tested it, to see what it would do.. And the odd color units, changed colors in the game. They were pink in the editor, and a weird black in the game. And even though they said it was owned by player 8, they did not attack like the basic color, though they did move once after being attacked. I have a replay, and just a test map if you want to edit it yourself or something.
