hmmm. I have the 5 boxes above the right hand side selected and I can see it in the units field. If you don't it may be one of the fields under "movement - footprint"
But if you select all 5 boxes above the right hand side of the data editor (Especially the combine structure Values, I think) it should seperate them all out.
Judging from your point am configuring the right place then. I guess I just need some explanation between
"Movement - pathing footprint - placement" and
"Movement - pathing footprint"
Is there a correlation between the two?
Also what does contour does for the footprint?
of course there is, placement is the footprint before the structure is placed to start being built. the pathing footprint is the footprint it will take whilst in construction and after its completed.
Contour, I believe, makes the footprint use the full squares and not round off the edges around the building where a unit could visually stand normally
Hi, Is there a special flag to allow any building to be built on creep? I found the on creep requirement, but setting it to 1 or 0 doesn't work
I tried looking the unit that builds it (i.e. scv) to build a supply depo and checked the Info-Button-Requirement but there isn't a creep flag
Thanks
You have to change the footprint of the unit to allow it being built on creep.
Thanks for the tip, I looked into a unit like supply depo, and only see in the following fields
"Movement - pathing footprint" "Movement - pathing footprint - dead" "Movement - pathing footprint - placement"
I tried poking around the placement and the first one but to no avail I can get it to build on creep only.
I looked deeper in the forums but I don't know where to find the "Layers" that most people are talking about.
Thanks for the pointers ^_^
the placement footprint is the one you are after.

Just wondering, where is it located? I use the data editor (Data type) -> supply depot , then on the right searched placement
I wasn't able to find it. I think I am looking at the wrong location ><
Thanks

You then should be able to find placement
