    I found out what the problem was. My custom "SCV - Build (SCV)" ability, didn't have the engine "Build" attached to it... when I duplicated it plus the solution from the tutorial that I quoted were the solution to the problem :)

    @JimStarluck thanks for the advice... I did compare the default things vs custom things to found out the reason of the problem.

    Thanks!

    posted a message on [Custom barracks] Actor, Building animation

    Hi everybody!

    I want to create a custom SCV with the ability to construct only my custom barracks. My custom barracks only can train marines and marauders.

    All works fine if I put my custom barracks manually on the map with the Terrain Editor. My custom barracks do what I want. The SCV also works fine. It can only build my custom barracks.

    I created a custom SCV, custom Barracks and a custom "SCV - Build (SCV)" ability (my custom SCV uses this)

    ... but I have an issue with the animation or the actor when SCV is constructing.

    First image: A default SCV begins the construction of default Barracks.

    All is perfect. The animation of the construction begins from 0%.

    Second Image: My custom SCV begins the construction of my custom Barracks. You can see the Barracks 100% (WTF) finished instantly but just visually, because the SCV is still working.

    Third Image: SCV is still working and the animation of constructing a building appears but behind the "Finished Barracks".

    Custom SCV is still working.

    Anyone knows what is happening? When this problem came, looking for tutorials I found this: http://forums.sc2mapster.com/resources/tutorials/17141-how-to-create-custom-structures-buildings-and-custom/ and reading it I made an improvement (I think). Before what you can see on the images, the constructing animation wasn't there. The SCV was moving around like he was constructing but the only thing you could see was the "Finished Barracks" since the beginning but no animation.

    What I did was: - In the field "Event - Event +" of the actor of my custom Barracks... I set the event name for "UnitConstruction.Barracks2.Start" to "BarracksBuild (Unnamed)" like in the tutorial.

    "Event - Event +" of the actor of my custom Barracks

    What am I missing?

    Please help. Thank you!

    PS1: I apologize if my english isn't perfect. English isn't my native language :P PS2: Now I see that I posted my question on the wrong place. Please move where it belongs!
