Gold Mines are unbuildable??

I added GoldMine to a units building list, but GoldMines never seem to construct. They get stuck at the initial few % of construction and dont continue to build?

What causes this problem?

thank you

Gold mines are odd. I think some stuff is hard coded about them.

I think the best compromise I managed was doing a haunted or entangled mine as a builable unit, but you have to add a trigger to add gold storage to it, as it is built with 0.

Or add to builder some dummy building with gold mine model. Trigger so when Dummy Mine is finished, replace it with true Gold Mine.

Yes they are buildable.. it works in my map, I have no idea why or how. From what I can see you dont need any triggers at all?


But I'll be interested if you work it out.

The goldmine itself doesn't cause any problems. The problem is located at the worker, which doesn't seem to be able to target the mine.
I have tested it with a little map, with the casual worker-units of all 4 official races. The human builder was the only one that caused problems, which could be solved by changing the goldmine's unit-classification to "mechanical", since this is one of the default classifications a human worker is able to target, as well it doesn't seem to mess with the other worker's goldmine-handling.
Entangling, haunting and exploiting builded goldmines works as well.

I have attached the map, so you can have a look at it if you like.
