Does Idle Peon Have to Center Screen?

Is there any way to avoid having the screen center on the idle worker when the Idle Worker button is clicked (at lower-left of screen)? I've tried having the screen center somewhere else when it's clicked, but it still originally flashes to the peon before going to the other destination.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Actually, I want the idle peon button to work, I just don't want it to center screen on the unit when I click on him. The reason is becuase I want to use the button to have another game-related function, but the center screen stuff is screwing it up.

I don't think you can do anything about it. What was your flash back trigger, maybe we can make it work properly?

hmph, how about the event "player - a player selects a unit" ?

How about getting tricky? And Hiding the Worker unit where you want it to center? Just give it ghost and shrink it or something.

Maybe try constantly moving the worker unit to the position of the camera?

Any questions?

Yes, I already had tried those ideas before I posted on here, and unfortunately it still causes the screen to center before moving. I think it's because the screen acutually centers before selecting the unit.

So, if someone else has any other suggestions that they've tried and know it works, the help would be greatly appreciated.
