JUST working on basics here, not cinimas...I'm doing what I assume has been done before....making Evil NE...and my primary questions are: How do I alter the names and requirements of upgrades? such as changing Natures Blessing to Dark Blessing. Also, how do I make a custom wisp that can mine from an entangled mine? I coped it exactly but just changed the name, does the entangled mine need editing? Much thanks in advance! |

Guest | >How do I alter the names and requirements of upgrades? such >as changing Natures Blessing to Dark Blessing. sorry dude, but you can't work anything with the upgrades, only unless you want to be the only person playing your map, if so i can explain, but youre probably going to want someone play your map, no? >Also, how do I make a custom wisp that can mine from an >entangled mine?

Guest | ok i looked at the trigger code from the Night Elf 6th campaign, where we have some corrupted trees of life, because when i made my own map and tested it, i couldnt get any unit except those named 'wisp' to get gold out of an entangled mine, no matter if it was a tree of life that entagled it or my 5 second work of art, the tree of damnit. right, so like i said i looked at it, and it surprised me greatly. corrupted trees of life do NOT produce wisps, nor do they mine the gold mine. they provide 90 food and make frost wyrms, etc. all evil night elf races are given 2000 gold, and get this: they dont even mine, if the value of gold or lumber goes below 1000, they up it 2000, slick huh? so that means that either you can't harvest from an entanged mine with anything but a wisp, or they were lazy. now what im thinking to solve this, you would just go into the abilities for your 'dark tree' and erase the 'entangle gold mine' ability. from your 'dark wisp', im going to see whether the harvest gold and lumber (wisp) ability works without the mine (so the wisps would act somewhat like peasants, but thats ok, yes? im also still trying to figure out a way where various units can harvest from an entangled gold mine |
