Hi, how can i make a teleporter? A place where ur units move in and then spit out at another point of the map..... the teleporter shall be a two-way teleporter....

okay...
go to unit pallete and then neutral passive...
then find the unit under building called waygate...
put it where u want
then put a region on top of it
repeat the steps at the other place u wanna teleport to...
double click each of the waygates and ull see

okay, if u dont see, then click on waygate active select the region u wanna teleport to

You can also use triggers instead of a waygate... essentially 'unit enters region teleport1', 'move triggering unit instantly to teleport1a, where teleport1a is near teleport2, but not the region itself. The same for teleport 2 (dont spawm them from teleport1 to teleport2 or they'll end up in a teleport loop... unless im mistaken about the infinite teleport loop)

Either way, this lets you use things like beacons or archways to teleport.

You use regions and trigger editor... Make a 2 regions: one at each place... Name them fx: TP1 & TP2

Then make a trigger like this:

Events:
A unit enters region - TP1

Condtions:
None

Actions:
Move (triggering unit) instantly to (Center of (TP2))

and then make another trigger where you switch TP1 and TP2 around :D

Ups.. just read the post above mine.. forgot about the Teleport Loop ://// Use the trigger Thyflame wrote ;)
