how to make the player start with one character?

[Jakenator]

im making a game in warcraft 3 called evolution where you start off as a very small dino and have to evolve into the Tyrannosaurus Rex. unfortunately i do not know how to make the player start with one character and one charcter only. neither do i know how to make the town hall model look like the crater model from the barrens doodads. can anyone help?

Requested information

I'm a bit confused by your request to make the player start with only 1 unit do you mean you don't know how to get rid of the default 3 builders and a town hall that are placed at the start location? or that you don't know how to place units? or that you want to make it so the player can select between different kinds of units. As for your second request go to the object editor (F6) and select the town hall then change the field Art - Model File to Crater < variation 1> under doodad or whatever other crater model you would like. I hope that helped

    • Melee Game - Limit Heroes to 1 per Hero-type (for all players)

Leave the event, but telete actions.

That would fix you town hall problem I think

im trying to make it so when the player first plays the game, they start out with one character next to their base, and im trying to make the base look like the crater doodad from the barrens.

Still, you'll need to delete some actions like " Melee Game - Create starting units (for all players)"
