PacMAN!

Y dont someone make a pacman map, with controls that are like the type from "Sheep Dodger" (the map made by blizzard"? With wisps as the dot thingys. Damn that would be so cool. Are there any limitations of the world editor that would not allow someone to make that? (I would try, but I checked out how many triggers were involved in making some maps, and DAMN!)

You can't just bind the keys to a trigger, the way blizz did it was assigned when the player click "S" which is the hotkey for stop and the user didnt give a stop destination then it ran the trigger same with "H" it was the hotkey for Hold position, and since you can't checnge the hotkeys for the others the controling would be weird cause it wouldnt be the typical position of them, but yes it could be done with the world editor and I might have to take up that challenge :)

For the controls for a pacman game, you could make a building that sells units for 0 gold with 0 sec replenish time, and change the hotkey for the units to the keys you want. When the units are created you remove them and then move whatever unit you select for pacman. You could then make a periodic trigger every 1 second or so that sets the selection to be just the building.

Extrarius has the right idea but you'd need to use a neutral building to avoid lag (there's a small minimum build time).

That would be cool to see a pac-man map!!

Heh, that'd be pretty funny.

Who will be first?

Thats why I said buy units and not build them =-) I don't think a building has to be neutral to sell units. You can probably make a building that sells units belong you a player. Also, you could give units tooltips of "Up", "Left", "Right", and "Down" to make it actually say which buttong is which =-)

I dont know i you can use the arrow keys, but if anyone could tell me which units have the hotkeys: W,A,S,and D or any other set of letters which have the same formation.

Well, the idea intriqued me, so I gave it a shot.

So far I 've got it so my unit will walk around a square using F,G,H, and T for movement.

It works pretty good, except for all the clicking noises when you issue the command (and I've doubled it at this point since I'm canceling the unit build).

It'll be quite a bit of work to get it down so that it behaves like PacMan would, but I think it's certainly possible.

Dark, I used Footman (F), Gyro (G), Headhunter (H) and Steam Tank (T)

You can change unit hotkeys. Its one of the last fields in the unit editor part of the map editor. Note that the 'highlighted' letter wont change unless u edit the tooltip because it is 'manually' colored.

Heh, so you can.
