Sorry for this very nooby question, but may I ask what message causes my custom Build abilities to create the Actor of the structure? Also, it's probably related to this: What actor message do I need for the ability construction? Or why the hell are these created? It's especially irritating with my custom actor, where the placeholder actor appears (that sphere). Please Help!
Unit creation usually. The sphere indicates two trying to be created at once. make sure you unit construction event is set to only fire at start and that you are specifying the unit for all. Also have you selected a model yet?

@DrSuperEvil: Go
Yes. The funny thing is, when the building starts (0 sec build time), the unit model and the sphere too is created.
Also the actor has, birth, death, construction finish, start, cancel events properly set.
Ok and the Art - Model field is also set?
Could also be another Unit type actor that is set up wrong being created when you start building.
