There was a campaign mission in warcraft 3 the frozen throne which changed the game forever.. i think it was like Terra.. i mean Human 1.

Kael picks up some items and uses said items to construct a base, a town hall, lumber mill, barracks, farms, blacksmith.


So how do you do it, items that can be used to place structures..

I tried making an effect which spawned units spawn a structure, but as soon as you take the cursor off the inventory the game crashes, with no error report whatsoever.

Im thinking of a work around... that gives the construction ability to the builder when the item is picked up, and removes it as soon as construction is started.

Blizzard likes to think they should get a cookie for making a "item system" in the data editor, and including template items, ok fine.. they get a cookie for the grenades :D

But just an oreo, not a big peanut butter chocolate chip one thats not made in Malaysia.

No im not asking about how to Scale buildings.
