as the title says, i want a spell that can be set to auto cast, to make units move to a nearby mineral shard.
please give me an in-depth tutorail to make this spell, it would be much appreciated
thank you -moipster
note: this is urgent to make my map, if you make this for me, i will give you credit on the loading screen, and it will help make this map become popular, tanks again
Use an Effect - Instant ability that is autocast that uses a Search Area effect with an Enumerate Area validator. Set the filters of both to require resource (or some other unique unit attribute combination of your shards) and get the Search Area effect to use an Issue Order effect on the caster to go to the target via the Move ability.
thanks for the reply, but i dunno how to use it i am not very good with the editor you see
We usually guide people on what to do to solve their problems, not provide a step by step tutorial. In other words, we assume you have some basic proficiency with the editor. If you don't then, well, maybe you should learn more about the editor before trying to move further with your map.

If you just want someone to make stuff for your map, you can ask in the Team Recruitment Forums.
This forum is for any questions you have when building stuff yourself; we try to point you in the right direction.

While this in general might be true, from my understanding this forum is not limited to advanced questions. However, if your questions are very basic, you might only get some general tutorial links or something.
On the other hand, your question is quite specific and suggests, that you already worked with the editor and are at least partly familiar with the stuff already mentioned.
Where exactly do you struggle when trying to create DrSuperEvil's suggestion?
Did you ever create an ability before? Do you know the structure of the data editor?
my problem is, i just didn't understand where the infomation he gave could be found, and the basics into using the knowledge.
in other words, i didn't know where to start, if i was pointed in the right direction, i would be able to follow everything he said.
thats my problem, i know i should have said that to begin with :)
He gave you basically a step by step instruction on how to make the ability in the data editor. The bold words are the types of objects you need to create.
If you have no idea, how to even create an ability, I suggest searching tutorials for it.
Does it need to be an ability? I created a region in my map and via triggers force the units to move to it. Once they enter they are ordered to gather nearby resources.
