How to build something on a high place.

[XSpeedyBoy]

Hello guys,
I have a map and river who go trough the middle. I try to build something like a colum gate but not colum a wall. Look at helm's deep total war, there is bridge at a high place.
How do i do that on my map?

By "build" are you referring to trying to place a structure unit during a session of the map or trying to place a doodad/destructable in the editor?

When placing doodad/destructable in the editor you can raise/lower them with page up/down hotkeys. You can also hold shift to place them in unpathable areas normally unsuitable for placement.

In that map you can't really go under the bridge btw, all units who try to get teleported to the other side of the bridge.

Still not sure what you are asking...

Units stay on the wall and under they is a river.

I'm not sure either what you are asking. But it's highly recommended that you learn about tips and tricks in terraining first. You can learn them from tutorials in this site.

Be aware Warcraft III is a 2D game mechanically. If you want units to walk on top of the walls they will not be able to walk under them. In reality units to not walk on anything, as they are processed in a 2D space for movement and position purposes with their height being entirely graphic. You can allow units to visually walk on top of models by making the model a destructable in the object editor based on something like a bridge and setting the walkable flag on.

Exactly that I want!
