Starting Units

[Cavman]

Hey, I was wondering: Where do you change the starting units for each race? I think I've done it before, but I'm not sure. Could some one please tell me how to do it. And if it takes triggers, then can a mod move this to the appropriate forum.

I think the "run melee installation" trigger places starting units

unless their are options to change what that trigger function does, your going to have to use your own triggers to place starting units

• Actions
  • Melee Game - Create starting units (for all players)

That creates the starting units for each player. No idea if you can change it in the game constants or something, but...

• Events
  • Map initialization
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Peasant)) and do (Unit - Replace (Picked unit) with a Battlecruiser using The old unit's relative life and mana)

Now you've just replaced all the starting Peasants with Battlecruisers!

lol. That would work.

But I was hopping for somthing that would'nt mess with triggers to much so I could try and keep the AI atleast partially together. Oh well.

You could just create your starting units overtop of the normal ones.
