extra building command card

[IronBladeClan]

You know how sc2 has a "build advanced structure" command for the workers?

Basically, I want to know how to add a 2nd building command to a single worker unit and put whatever buildings I want in it.

Can anybody explain how I can do this, if it is even possible?

Only with a workaround, as usual.
One possibility would be to use chaos/metamorphosis to change the unit and therefor the built structures.
Or you trigger it by casting a spell that selects another unit that has different buildings to build.

hmm...which one would be cleaner (chaos, meta, or trigger)?

And I'm not sure I understand how selecting another unit would work. Where would the unit come from?

 

[GhostThruster]

Trigger would probably be more 'cleaner' (aesthetically), however chaos/morph is easier to make.

 

[IronBladeClan]

okay, so I do I do it with a trigger without the player realizing a different unit exists or has been selected?

 

[GhostThruster]

Yes, if you do it right.

But when you make him select another unit it won't be in the same control group.. at least to me that's rly annoying.
I'd use metamorphosis with instant landing/take off flags set and then force the unit to use the the spell and the player to press B again. (look up ForceUIKey)
Then the player also won't notice you are changing the unit.
