Since you probably have no idea what I am referring to, here is an image of the Data editor with the thing I am talking about circled in red.

Specifically, I am trying to change what the SCV can build. I want to take out a few things and put a few things in. If anyone could tell me how to do this - and tell me what the names of these areas are! - I'd be very appreciative.

Thank you for reading and please help!

That area is populated by entries that are related to the entry you are interacting with. The definition of related is very loose as some entries have references to an object yet do not appear in that list while others have very loose relationship with the current entry and appear there.

The sections refer to the catalog which the entry is from. For example when selecting the Command Centre entry in the Unit catalog you will see it is related to various abilities. The actual point of relationship for the abilities is the Abilities field of the Unit class that the Command Centre uses.

Actors are slightly different. The actors themself make reference to the current entry or related entries via their actor event fields.

If you right click an entry in the related view you can query how it is related. Although the description returned is often quite unclear it is a start and in most cases will let you track down a reference.

DSG is right. Those are objects that are directly or loosely linked to the selected. To make aSCV build other stuff, youd do this

In that area that you circled, find the ability thats like "SCV - Build" and click Info +. A list of things should appear and you can change what it trains with tht
