How do I make custom starting points?

[Sideblade]

Hey Guys! How do I make custom starting points? Thanks! Do I need starting points? If not how do I disable them? THANKS!!!!

You always need starting points for any occupied player slot (Be it computer or user).

If you want custom starting points, there is nothing easier than placing Starting Location "unit" for each player. So you can have up to 14 starting points.

Starting points are the point where the player camera will be at the begginning of the map.
If you wanna use another one just move.

Yes, but this is a mod, it isn't a normal warcraft3 map. I dont want the workers and town hall for a starting point I want an invisible starting point if this is possible...

(Starting location is the town hall?) No?

If you don't want the starting units remove the trigger line Create Starting units

starting location is the circular ring with spikes that are the same as the player color. They can't be seen in game.
You can find them in the unit menu in the WE

It's not town hall, however there is a trigger under Melee which will spawn town hall in Starting Location, so all you need to do is remove that action from map initialization trigger.

OH I see! Thanks!

Is there a way to make a unit (eg, the main character/hero) be a starting point unit and spawn instead of the townhall ect...?

 

[Talavaj]

Eh just delete the initialization trigger and make your own. (the only trigger in trigger list after you make a new map)

 

[Sideblade]

What trigger(s) do I use to make a certain unit spawn in a certain region?

• Unit - Create 1 Unit for Player at Point facing Angle degrees
