How would I go about adding Permanent cloaking to an aura for my units. I'm currently building Heroes for a mod and I'm pretty new to using the Starcraft 2 Editor, but am loving it all the way so far.

If anybody could either give me pointers or direct me to the information I need, please and thank you.

Learn from the Mothership.

That doesn't tell me much of anything if I don't completely know what I'm looking for. I found a speed buff aura tutorial that works, but I'm trying to figure out how to apply that to cloaking.

What's there not to know? You know you're dealing with behaviors, and I told you to look at the Mothership. It has two set on it. I'll let you figure out which one does cloaking.

I have never modded before and I am doing this for my job. I'm not trying to sound stupid, but what you're telling me to do isn't really helping me because I have no real clue what I'm doing; hence the reason I'm asking for guidance. Could you please explain what each of these variables do or point me in the right direction to some information that does? I'm not trying to be rude, just having some difficulties.

You said you found a tutorial that worked, so I figured you had a better grasp on it.

Normally, you'd pretty much just want to copy the Mothership's Cloak Field behavior. You said adding it to an existing aura, though, so it makes it slightly more complicated.

You've got a tutorial that has to be better what I could explain, but I'm sure your tutorial creates a behavior that runs a periodic effect with no periodic count (i.e. runs forever), and applies a second behavior, the actual buff to any nearby units. Assuming you've done that, create a new effect, of type Set. Add your existing behavior-applying effect, as well as the 'Cloak Field effect' effect, and point your old aura behavior's effect to the new Set you just created.

Thanks. That helped it partially. Now the effect goes away as soon as I move. The tutorial I watched was not very well explained. I think I'll keep working with this and seeing what happens.

Thanks again A52BcE.

Now I have a funny effect. It causes all ghosts I walk by to cloak but nothing else. LOL

TWO simple steps: Get 1 Mothership Give it Permanent cloaking That's it Look at the mothership and the dark templar. And combine them.

Can I apply that concept to the Ghost? I'm creating a Hero Ghost with a Cloaking Aura. Thank you very kindly for the response Para.

Add in "Behaviors - Behaviors +" (assuming you're using combine structure values) the "mothership - cloaking field" and "permanently cloaked" to the Ghost. You don't need to duplicate or create new behaviors.

Could you please explain that to me in more detail? Thank you.
