thats impossible, you could use trackables, that means create many trackables at map initialisation on every 128X128 field on the map.
Trackables detect mouse movement, but this would not be very good for performance.

you could create a wall by clicking twice, at the start and at the endpoint.

yea I thought it is impossible , okay

I think its possible but you need UTM (advance terrain!) and i dont know how to do that...

 

[Emm-A-]

what means UTM?

If it is singleplayer, or a little map, it is possible with trackables.
You can google for them, there are some functions for them, unfortunately you cant delete them, so you better create them at map init.

They detect the mouse pointer

Edit: Singleplayer, because that many objects, you would need, are very bad for the map performance

I have big maps because it is mass unit game

UTM is the Ultimate Terrain Map, used by lots of people because it has a vast quantity of terraining stuff (obviously by the name). Also, doesnt the UTM not have any set paths for its doodads? which would make them walkthrough, and basically useless as walls. However, I remember a map someone made with walls and stairs and gates that your units could walk onto, although I do not remember what it was called.

you can easily make walkable walls by creating your own pathing map

 

[DracoKing114]

Yes, but you also have to make the walls or download them if you do that, with that map you just transfer it over to your map

 

[Darkhunty]

no I wanna not make it walkable I just wanna to make wall long as I drag my mouse

You could make a unit cast an ability between 2 locations and then wall between those points. That would work. As for dragging the mouse, RTC fps mod would work, but thats single player only.
