[General] How to make a structure build itself like from the Undead?

[FUJI]

Hi Guys, I've been working in my own map "Human Survival v1.0 AI" and it is still in progress because of some issues. This map is like Troll and Elves or Vampirism that the human will find their safe place and build their defenses to survive againts the monster. Unlike these maps, I decided to make an AI to my map to make the user play in a single player. I wanted to know how to make a human structure or any structure ( except for the undead ) to build itself without a worker or builder?. The undead structures are building themselves even if the worker leaves it.

Simple, worker must be undead. Race of the building itself doesn't mater.

Thanks for your answer. I'll try that, + Rep

You can do it with triggers as well. When a building is started to get built order the worked to stop, then add the building to a unit group and set the progress further each update. (I am pretty sure there is such an action)

• Unit - Set (Triggering unit) construction progress to 50%

This is obviously harder than changing stuff in the object editor, but triggers can be modified while ingame which isn't something that you can do with object editor stuff

I think I like to config it in Object Editor but anyway thanks to your suggestion ^^.

you could use the build tiny farm ability if you want it to be built without going into a build menu but if you want to use a build menu and build without the unit staying there just make the builder undead. the advantage with build tiny farm is that you can give it a long range but then you need a spell book in order to create a build menu for it.
