Hi. So I know creating units and modifying their size is all pretty simple, but i have encountered an issue and more experienced editors may have an answer for this nubs problem. I created a new unit, a Supply Depot (Lowered), and got it set up and placed on the map(only difference was this version had another name so far). Next I edited the size under models, and now it places as a normal topside supply depot - No more 'Lowered / Burrowed'. If anyone has any idea what went wrong, please help me troubleshoot. I hope i didn't change something else before i tried to edit the size, but that's most likely the case. None the less, i still have no idea what went wrong.
i also had this problem and solved it by changing the actors events.
there you just have to search for morph and set the values to your new supply depot.
it isn't a nice work because of strange editor functionality but anyway it worked for me. =)
messed around with all of that to no avail. but did come to notice that whenever it mentions my custom item, it shows in drop downs but then says unknown unit in event scripting. could this be part of my problem? also there are about 6 morph events and i could just not know which one needs editing, cuz they all look good.
Nevermind, I solved it. It wasn't any of the AbiMorph events, btw. It happened to be the Event UnitBirth: AnimGroupApply Burrow. It was still on Supply Depot (Lowered) and i changed it to my custom item. It still says Unknown Unit in the script, but it works now wooohooo! Thanks for getting me to look there and a general idea of what to fix! Much appreciated, Robbepop! +1 Internets
