You can do a search in the Text module of the editor for Shields and then change that text to "Temperature" or whatever.
You can also change the color of the shield text in the Game UI category of the Data editor, and the color of the status bar under the individual unit Actors.
Would you mind going a bit more in depth on how you did this im very bad with the data editor
Edit: I think i will just adapt my map to use Energy for the Heat Vital, but i cant think of a way to rename the Energy.
Your are fine i took no offence at all, im use to being critisized for my english I have to spend a good 10 minutes reveiwing my post to make it look professional hah
I'm making a map where units slowly freeze and die unless they are heated by various means. I have a lot of triggers already but I'm not very good with the data editor, and because there will be a lot of units i don't think having a trigger handle all of the data would be very efficient and would probably very laggy in the end. So....
The Question
I want to know if there is any way to create a custom vital (akin to Health and Energy). The reason that I want a new vital is because I want to be able to have it appear on the units portrait and above the units heads when you hold down shift, as well as to have the data stored very locally for each unit.
I will give credit in my map to the person(s) who provides a complete solution.
I've known this for quite a while, dont know y i didnt post it on the forums though...GJ for spreading the knowledge...BTW Cheat Engine has NO viruses i've used it for years and i have many friends that use it just make sure you go to the right site to download it Cheatengine.org
I was really disappointed when I found out that the editor didn't come packed with an ice themed tileset. I lack the skills or knowlodge how to make custom terrain but if someone could make one it would be awesome. I had alot of plans for a SC2 Ver. of The Thing, but it just wouldn't work without an ice theme. So im asking for some help from this awesome community as you guys have done some awesome stuff in past.
I am making a battlecruiser that is scaled up into a Air Fortress and i wanna make it so that it can train and launch banshees like a carrier launches interceptors but i cant figure it out for the life of me, can any1 help me out?
