I copied the effects, abilities and more form Nexus wars for the nuke ability.
Now something strange happens. If I try to nuke it says something similar to "calldown detected: arm silo with nuke" and an icon in the top left of the UI shows a timer counting upwards.
If I try to nuke on my own building nukes drop instantly. I did it about 5 times and then the game booted me back to the login screen.
I've done that a few times now and used spectre nuke, hero nuke with similar problems. I'm going to try adding the ability just to a unit now to see what that does.
All you have to do is change the abilities arch.
For odin nuke it has no arc so your going to have to change it
Just go to "ability - arc" and change it to 360 and your set.
It makes it so you can use the ability without the unit actually looking at its target
I've Google and already looked at this thread http://forums.sc2mapster.com/development/map-development/1332-removing-nuke-requirements/#p12
However I can't get this to work.
The nuke will only launch on the same tile as my structure.
I want to be able to award the player with a nuke which is able to be fired from the structure to any place on the map.
The range display for the structure is about 4 tiles wide. Will look for this.
add the ghost - launch nuke to the building increase the range of the ability ??? profit
maybe you have to add the create nuke ability and make a trigger to add a nuke to the ammo.
I've done that and this is the strange part.
The range is 500, the entire map however it will only fire on the same tile as the building it is launched from.
If I shorten the range it says "out of range", But even IN RANGE ti won't fire unless on my own building. (So many marines have died because of this)
Now my nuke crashes the game doh

Strange.
try to create it from scratch

It is as I thought, the nukes work perfectly when attached to units. But if I attach it to my building it's bugged.
I have heros on the map so I will make it an ability of the hero and this gives users more reason to protect him as well as utilize him.

Digging up old thread :)
Thanks! Works perfectly after changing "Ability - Arc".
