Structures Help

[Drew_445]

I have a custom unit trying to build a custom structure. When my builder attempts to build the custom structure, it begins but then stops(Like the Heroin building in Drug Smuggler>.<). I have no idea what the problem is-is their some kind of trigger needed?

EDIT: How do you delete like buildings or terrain tiles without using the Undo button?

Also, how do you raise like city tiles to create like a wall? Or even to plateau a whole area?

Thanks and much appreciated I'll have to check back tomorrow though.

Check if your builder has the Repair (Human) ability
You can delete units if youre in the units tool and press space
same for doodads
and as far as i know you cant delete terrain, you can just undo oder replace it with a different one
By walls u mean like the cliffs ? There is a city cliff in the city tileset just lookout for it in terrain tool, it can be used for plateaus and everything you want ^^

Alternatively make the Worker Undead.
The Peasant is kind of weird in that it only builds a tiny part of the building, then repairs it to full health to construct.

Make sure that both of the structure and worker is on the same race (except if Undead, it doesn't matter). That could be it..

Thanks for the help!!

Once again, the help is much appreciated as I get my feel for the editor.

EDIT: Also, I've no idea what you meant with the city cliff type effect, and how to delete seperate units/doodads.(I tried using space but nothing really happened). I just changed the builder to undead(sorry didn't remember your post about making it Undead ike_ike.) It worked just fine, so problem solved.

2 EDIT: Lol, maybe I should just wait awhile after trying stuff before I post . Forum ?: How can you do the strikeout effect? I couldn't even find it on bbcode =/. Also, it seems that after my structures are completed I can build on top of them again. On the stats-Can Be Built On is false, as well as Can Build on, so i've no idea what the problem is.

Gah, sorry for all the text. I'll just delete the pointless parts.

It doesn't turn up in the BB code, but I think that it is [ s ]STRIKETHROUGH! [/s] like the code for bold and italics.

Strikethrough...testing, testing, 1, 2, 3!

Check if your building has a pathing map
And for the doodads and stuff just try a bit, maybe i just got you wrong, i dont do much terraining and so on
