I want to make the Soccerball collectible and be put into the SCVs hands, like instead of the soccerball being a mineral field I want it to be the raw piece that you would get after gathering from a mineral field. So the SCV could pickup the soccerball and hold it like it would a piece of a mineral field.
I tried this, I tried changing it to a resource object type. I also tried changing the Resource state and type. But none of this worked.
Ok thanks for the help but thats not really helping me here. "So the SCV could pickup the soccerball and hold it like it would a piece of a mineral field." this is really all I want, but I have to have it so it dosent start out in its hands I want it to be able to pick it up, and take it somewhere, multiple times.
Were you able to make your unit pick up the soccerball? (as in it picked it up but did not show it attached)
Also, you will have to know what that tutorial covers if you want the scv to "pick up" (as in visually pick up) the soccer ball.
The reason is that the ball showing up is actually the ball being "attached" to the scv. This is the same way that the scv picks up minerals, etc.
If you have emulated (or copied) the scv's mineral pick up ability then all that you need to do is work with attachments.
