Hi, everyone,
I'm trying to make it so that my duplicate of Vespene Geyser (Mana Vortex) has Redstone - Flame Geyser as its model. Unfortunately, the moment I do that it starts to behave like a unit-doodad hybrid or something, in the sense that I can't move it in the editor (like all other units) besides cut-paste, and I can't select it in Test Document mode at all.
I tried doing it two ways:
1. I set the Mana Vortex's actor copy to have Redstone - Flame Geyser as its model.
2. I made a model, set it as a unit, Not Doodad etc., gave one of Flame Geyser's variations as the .m3, and then had Mana Vortex's actor copy use the new model.
Giving the unit a doodad model, or changing the .m3 for the custom model both makes it unmovable/unclickable immediately disregarding pretty much all other options and I fiddled with all options that I could think of and it still doesn't work. The moment I change the .m3 to that of a unit it works fine. Anyone had experience with this?
Hegemuffin said that he did something similar. He used the model of the tracks ( which are doodads) for units. Don't know if it solves the problem for you, but you can download the map and see what his settings are:
