[General] Select across screen event

[loktar]

I have a unit that has an ability to morph into another unit. I'd like them to be treated as the same unit type, so they're selected together when selecting across screen.


Is there an event for when a player selects across screen (i.e. selects all units in visible area of a certain unit type by double click/ctrl click)?

Thanks!

indirectly.
you can detect when player X selects a unit
after that you can check if that unit is visible.

Do you mean check if the unit is on screen?

I'm not sure what you mean, wouldn't I have to detect when a player double clicks or ctrl clicks a unit?

If Count = 2, then do morph actions or what ever

Thanks, but I no longer have the unit morphing, so don't need this anymore.
