Vertical, buildable gates

What i mean is gates players can build and they are vertical. Is there some way of using Gui or jass to achieve this? I know it can be done, i have seen it in village builder.

would be nice but have no idea how.

You could post a thread in the Request forum, asking for a vertical gate model. A good modder with a decent modding tool can help you.

Hmm give a builing gate model
When it uses open ability
repleace it with a walkable one and make it play "death alternate" animation (opened gate)
when walkable uses close repleace it with original one

FLAME ALERT!!!

god next time i will use google >.>

um try messing with the builder unit's "can build structures" ability.

I have done something similar. I created a gate vertical, with the model editor, it had a problem, it didnt open, so i made a trigger, really easy, when you finishes the construction of a vertical gate, i created a common gate building, then i rotated 90 degrees in a separate place of the map where no unit may be around and bothers, then i removed from the game the gate, and move this gate where the first one was. If you want you can upgrade it with a diferent gate and it will remain vertical, you wont need more than 1 vertical gate, and it wont need to work, only appears.
I hope you understand, my english sux :(
The only thing you need, is a model of vertical gate, or you can do it by yourself and its pathing map.

kinda makes sense but I had trouble under standing it can you try and clear it up a little?

Lawd, i know how to set a horizontal gate but i need to know how to set the horizontal gate to rotate right after being built.

um make Vertical gate one of the structures.

Try setting the Turn Rate of the gate to 3.00. Then you make it face the disired angle after you've built it.
Though it may look ugly when it turns.

Hey go into the Doadoad tool palete, then ping the "selection brush" and double click on the Gate, and from there you can set the rotation :D

Well.. this is a way :S

You are welcome. Only, you may want to create it in a separate region. Because if some unit is neaby, the gate will apear in a different place(because when the created unit is created first it checks the pathing map of the unit with normal facing location, then it rotates).
