Ok I've been working on a custom race,and I have been trying to get a structure I made to work properly,but all the (censored) thing is doin in game is giving me the cant build there message.What I am trying to get done, is a gold mine similar to the undead's, in the fact that it must be constructed ontop of a gold mine, before the workers can collect the gold from it.
I just can't seem to get the blasted thing to work properly,I've tried using the same settings as the haunted Goldmine, even the same graphic(just changed the name), even set my worker to be undead(Which it aint:D ).Always get the same message, can't build there, and ya im targeting a gold mine. :)
If someone could give me a hand here id appreciate it, otherwise im gonna have to go to the hospital, and have my foot surgically removed from my computers harddrive. :D

I think Gold Mines and the Haunted Gold Mines have some extra variable not shown in World Editor that signifies you can gather gold from them. I'm not sure if this variable would be in the Blink! Editor, but you may have to edit some files from the MPQ.

I tried it out myself, and while I could get the Acolytes worshipping my "Workshop Gold Mine", they weren't gathering any gold...even if I added the "Gold Mine Ability" to it. My other peasant didn't treat it like gold mine either.
