I just realised you can edit the height at which LOS blockers occlude vision, no need for Xel'Naga Towers. Question is, where is this value and is it relative to the footpring or absolute? | ||

The cache is problematic, "cache cache" (hide and seek, now you see it now you don't)... although i feel that in single offline it's should be do able.. again, above this drone's official paygrade :p | ||

so is "acquisition range"... (+ Show Spoiler + well that was maybe too obtuse: there is indeed a line of data, so that any unit can have it's own... the acquisition is the sight radius that makes the unit attack enemy units automatically) | ||

Now you want to know how to handle arrays? i think arrays are not .. well .. good.. ..still, i'm not the sharpest drone of the pack.. i had read that you had to individualize all active regions... that arrays of regions were not the way to go... | ||

Don't be bashful, that's what this thread is for! Press 'h' to switch to the "paint pathing" layer (like pressing 'u' to switch to unit layer). In the panel you want "paint pathing" (first row), "add pathing" (second row) and "no building" in the third row which is no-building-but-unit-pathable. When you paint this area its yellow/orange. ![[image loading]](http://imgur.com/neZIq.jpg) | ||

Otherwise sorry, please rephrase or elaborate... In game, the face of the cliff is entirely rock. In the editor, the surface intersects the cliff to look like a sheet stretched over the cliff. | ||
