this is a huge step up from the WC3 editor and it's driving me nuts! i've been at it for 2 days now and i can't figure half of this crap out lol.
so here's the deal. i found a youtube tutorial making a basic tower defense. i follow this tutorial on making the new basic tower... right click duplicate the photon cannon. check most of the stuff that appears to be important(not checking stuff like birth things and death things).
i've ran into so many problems and through trial and error corrected a bunch of them but was not clear on HOW i solved them... but now i have an issue where the new tower is shooting the missile out of the BASE OF THE TOWER. the "turret" still follows the unit but the projectile isn't coming out of the turret.. it's coming out of the base of the tower. wtf
is there a tutorial / wiki / some kind of page or something that lists all the different elements of a unit and how they act and what they should be linked with?
i've searched the tutorial section of this forum and im not finding anything helpful
Im not sure what you did, never done that myself. but what you can do is delete your duplicated Cannon and restart. for tutorials best would be to make topics like so on "How To" or just you the search at top right. Must remember tho alot of tutorials are old and from the beta so something could of have changed eventho not much
Also must remember that Starcraft 2 was released barley a month ago so everything is still so called new and things like your asking for as in Elements, are most likely not done yet because were all still learning, with the sad part being Blizzard announced they will not be helping us figure out the editor.
trial and erroring some more.... my turret no longer follows the unit that it's attacking. you know like it's looking at them while it's shooting them. uugggggh
