[Unsolved] Lock Color Selection

[SpasMaster]

How do I lock player colors? I mean, I want player 1 to be Orange and Player 2 to be Blue, but in the Lobby players can change that. How can it be locked?

EDIT: And one more question: How do I enable the display of the attack range circle while placing a building. (Example Photon Cannon)

I don't think this is possible at all. Was it possible in Wc3?

Yes it was. In the Forces section there was a a button you can enable/disable called "Fixed player properties" or something..

What about the attack range indicator?

 

[Muhahahahaaa]

seriously? have you ever checked game variants and attributes?
what is with the attack range indicator?

 

[MasterHaosis]

In WC3
Scenario----->Player Properties
Players----->Fixed start location
Forces----->Fixed Player Settings
And manually set forces.
So player can be some color only either which he get or if he chose by changing force.
You can assign specific color via trigger to certain player so not matter which color in menu belongs to him, he will be triggered color.

IDK if this is dead, but you can just do it in Game Variants.

Do it with triggers.
Player -> Set Player color. It's something like that, just search for color

I get it that it's pretty frustrating when you can't remember the names of things from the past that just happen to pop into your mind.

 

[Statharas]

I'm going to leave this open as the solution will be very helpful to many.

 

[Statharas]

I'm still leaving this open; the answer will be helpful if anybody finds it.

First things first, set the colors you want for the players under Map > Player Properties. Go to Map > Game Variants. Uncheck "Use Default Variants" and then add a new variant. Here, you can select hidden attributes. These are settings that will not appear to be edited in the lobby. If you want to lock the players' color, race, etc., you can do it here.
