Hi, Im making this Pirates map and I need to know how to place a Pathing Blocker on a bridge?

Well, a modified Bridge so it looks like a Ship, if its helps to know...

I hope someone will help me :)

Exactly why do you need a pathing blocker, and where?

If you hold down Shift while placing doodads, it should let you place it wherever you want, except concentric with another placed object.

Just place them around it.. It doesnt matter if theyre too low or high. WC3 isn't fully 3d in this regard--the same reason why you cant walk under a bridge.

its not really nice to hear but i dont think you cant put them in the editor unless your bridge got no path, its just like the units, you cant place a unit on a bridge in the editor (as far i remember) if its that then you can always just do a trigger that make invisible units (with or without model) appear at strategics places as soon the game start, its replace the path blockers

Please notice, what you want to do is entirely possible and is, in fact, easy.
As an interesting side not, Saboera, sometimes the WE *doesn't* let you place stuff over something that has no pathing map nor collision size, for whatever reason. Maybe it bases placing in the WE off of default data until you restart, or something crazy like that.

I'll try this... Hope it works

I can't place the pathing blocker even near where I want them without holding shift but I try with holding
