Alternative resources

[Tymonde]

First I'd like to say that I just registered here, though I've been actively (on and off) to custom designing Warcraft3:tft maps - which gives me great creative satisfaction!

Now I've started another project, which includes new ways of gathering resources. I don't know if it will used in the current planned way, but will great help nomatter how it ends up ^^

QUESTION:

Now what I wanna do is... have a unit mine gold from any gold mine, like an acolyte... but I can't seem to get it to work! I was also wondering about auto-pickup abilities. Any advice? Like having a unit autopickup X in a radius whenever it drops..

Thanks!
Ask for more information on my project, and eventual joining in ^^

but just base this acolyte type of recource gathering from the ability "gather gold (acolyte)"

with the pick up it would need triggering i would base it off the meat wagons auto pick up corpse ability
heres the trigger

event- unit- starts casting ability
condition- ability- is equale to pick up "corpse"
action- player-property add 10 to player 1(reds) corpse stockpile
corpse- destroy last "picked up" corpse

condition:just an example since you base it of corpes ability
action: also just an example but im not sure if it works i just kinda tried to remember if those triggers are there meaning i did it in my head not with the WE
