Edit: Tried this and it helped http://www.sc2mapster.com/forums/development/map-development/6615-is-there-any-way-to-stop-spacebar-from-moving-the-camera/ The camera still flashes to the alert before the intended applications occur... I suppose the flash is extremely brief, so the mechanic is playable. | ||

You can make use of the symmetry tool. It will mirror the terrain as you create it, based on your specifications. Here's a fancy video I found on Youtube (disclaimer: I'm at work and didn't listen to the audio so I can't vouch for the commentating, but just watching is sufficient): | ||

I want to make it so you cannot blink up on the cliff from the ground, and also you cant blink from the cliff back to the ground. Put simply, no this is not possible. The blink ability only cares about whether the destination area is pathable ground and whether you have vision of it. In order to do what you propose, you'd have to modify the blink ability itself (I think) possibly in conjunction with some map triggers or custom region usage, which is not usually considered "acceptable" for standard melee maps. | ||

One easy way would be to use the functions "pick a random point in region" and the function "entire map" to return a region that is the size of the map. and then order the unit to move to that location. You could get more sophisticated by using inbuilt functions which avoid returning points near previously returned points, checking that the destination is pathable and the unit can get there, or picking a nearby point based on the units current location. Each of which would have slightly different behaviour. | ||

This is actually entirely possible. All you have to do is:
Boom, now blink requires equal cliff level to be considered a valid blink location (i.e. cannot blink up and down cliffs). This is also perfectly acceptable for a standard melee mod. | ||
