Creep Camps

[rainshow]

Hello, is it possible to hide creepcamps in minimap only at exact creepcamps? (I have patroling creeps and I don't want to see it in minimap but I want other creep camps visible in minimap.)

I think the best way to deal with this is to make patrolling creeps a new team, therefore eliminating the creep camp icons. Sorry, I can't think of any other alternative.

Im not sure if this would work, but in the Object Editor there is a Unit Stats property called Hide Minimap Display, it might work but i cant say for sure.

Hide minimap display won't hide the creep camp, just the units minimap icon, or that's what I think at least.

Yes, Hide Minimap display didn't work.And about teams - I already have 8 players and four teams(so I don't have any empty slot.)

You can try using hostile Neutral Passive as a team, theres also Neutral Extra & Victim as well.

Really there aren't other ways how to hide it?

Unlikely, if you want creeps that are standing still to have their icons on the minimap, while those that move around to not have them, then I can see no other way.

You could also alter the ingame minimap and place the redish dots anywhere on the map you want. Might increase the filesize of the map though.

As in displaying some creeps and some not, that's not possible. But I think the creeps needs to be a group of at least 3 (or 2) to be displayed on the minimap, if I am not mistaken.

I don't think this is true. I believe creep camp icons are determined by the total level of creeps in that location, opposed to the quantity.

Maybe you should just remove* the minimap indicator icons in Game Interface. (Model - Minimap Creep Camp (Small), and Model - Minimap Creep Camp (Large)) But this will hide all creeps ^^

This.
You need to set regions (or just use points) of where you want those creeps to be.
Then spawn them for "Neutral Extra", neutral extra reacts completely the same as neutral hostile BUT:
- Doesn't have a creep camp icon.
- Doesn't use the standard Neutral Hostile AI.

lol, there's better way with trigger if I wanted to do that.

About apocalypse - thanks, I'm not checked working yet but think it will work.

You should thank Darkness-4ever ^^
(perhaps you missed the post or didn't quite understand what he meant, but he gave the solution in the first place).

Well, if I clarified his post: you're welcome.
