attaching minimap icon onto a unit

02-20-2008, 12:07 AM

There exist 3 mini-map icons that i can use or replace:

MinimapIconGold
MinimapIconNeutralBuilding
MinimapCircleOfPower

I want to know how do i attach these images to a unit? In other words, when the unit is on the map it will display, on the mini-map, the goldmine icon - what is the object field that does this?

I've looked at how blizzard did their evil eyes in Extremely Candy Wars, but i could not find any object field for defining the image - it is as though they hard-coded the unit (as though they possess the ability define a hidden object field). I tried copying the eye unit, but it did not display the icon...

So reached two conclusion, it's either triggered or hard-coded. So, i was wondering if i miss a function that allows me to do attach a mini-map icon to a unit?

EDIT: Never mind, i found my answer; it's hard-coded.
