Need Help Please

[Lothar1994]

Hi everyone,

I was on wc3c.net and found a map (http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=104851&page=4) that has Hawk scouts patrolling the outskirts of the human (blood elf) base. My question is Can some one help me figure out how this person did this?

I would post on that site but all my posts seems to not appear or are not poping up after I make them it could just be my pc but that why I came here to ask for help...that and this site is a little more organized...lol

Explain more on what is happening ?

If it is just a simple patrol he might create the units then order them to patrol from point to point.

 

[Lothar1994]

ok this is what happens.

If you play as the human(Blood Elves in his map) 3-6 hawks with your team color begin On Their Own to Patrol the Outskirts of your base. from what i can tell they are not select-able and they patrol between 2-3 point after reaching there patrol start point and give the player visible site where they patrol but again they are not select-able.

1) Add Locust "Aloc" to your unit abilities.
2) Spawn the units on the start patrol area
3) Use this action:

• Unit - Order MyUnit to Patrol To TempPoint

MyUnit is the hawk; temppoint is the destination.

will test it is the ability you said to use the Locust Swarm??

edit: nvm I thing I found it.but If I wanted to make it so that If I wanted my town hall to have a passive ability where the hawks would spawn and patrol do i do the same thing??

Yes, just add a passive info-skill to the town hall. It doesn't have to actually do anything, the triggers should do it all.
