as you can see this is just a copy paste of the nightelf script made by moyack for the tutorial

also you can see i'm trying to make a blood elf AI with a lot of custom units

but i can't get it to work....

- i tried tanking out the '
- i tried renaming ELF_FARM and BLOOD_PEASANT to their raw code names
- i also tried with another script

i don't know if i'm screwing with the script... or if i fail importing the script to the map

as i said before, i'm new with all this world edit thing (a real noob, not just a JASS noob) :(

so i would like to know if you could help me

thanks for your time

Names are only if you have defined its value, so just set the rawcodes of your units.

Questions: Have you set the AI file to the right computer player?

Why it fails?? what are the workers doing when you test the map?

Hmm, I found an error:

Check the red line...:
