O - Pressing "O" will turn on the bounds view, placing two borders around the outside of the map, the blue line represents the playable area, the yellow line is the camera limit bound. CTRL + SHIFT + H - This shows unit pathing. Typically there will be a red ring around the outside of a map, indicating the edges of the playable area.

Game - Set the next map to "mapname.SC2Map" Game - Set the next map to "mapname" Is this simply not supported/possible? Or am I doing something wrong? Also, how do you transfer data between two maps (like which upgrades you took or who lived or died)? | ||

It was a custom map wich seemed to be about 1 vampire or something who should try to infest the rest of the players untill only 1 was left very similar to the old "whos the vampire" on wc3. Its called Parasite and it is not available on European Servers as of yet. It will be available soon, thats what was said in the Trump Channel on IRC last weekend | ||

Where can I change the cost for upgrades? I can't find it anywhere, I know it's probably extremely obvious, it should probably be under ''Upgrade'', but I just can't find it. Thanks. | ||

Neither of the below has worked for me: Game - Set the next map to "mapname.SC2Map" Game - Set the next map to "mapname" Is this simply not supported/possible? Or am I doing something wrong? Also, how do you transfer data between two maps (like which upgrades you took or who lived or died)? I may be wrong but as far as I know, this doesn't work for published maps yet. Blizz will probably implement it in a later patch. You can make this work for single player (if the map is downloaded and opened through the Map Editor). You just have to place the maps in the "C:\Program Files\Starcraft II\Maps" folder or a subdirectory of that (which I think you have to specify using a '/' instead of '\' ) so "C:\Program Files\Starcraft II\Maps\Test\test.sc2map" will be "Test/test" in your trigger. You can transfer data between maps using data banks. Won't go into details since they are pretty easy to figure out.

I can't find it anywhere, I know it's probably extremely obvious, it should probably be under ''Upgrade'', but I just can't find it. Thanks. I also spent a lot of time figuring this out ^^ If I remember correctly you have to open the building that researches the upgrade (not the upgrade itself), go to the Abilities tab and you should see something like "Ability - Research xyz". Double click on that to open a pop-up, scroll down a bit and you'll see the cost. I may be mistaken on this one as well since I don't have the editor right now so if I remember wrong tell me and I'll check it out. | ||

Could anyone suggest a way to enable the players to activate/deactivate autocast on unit-abilities via hotkey? I mean... having to right-click that shit all the time is kind of tedious... Is there maybe some kind of solution/woraround to this problem? | ||

The "," and "." - keys toggle through doodad-variations in the editor. (You can also deactivate/activate the randomization of doodad variations, rotation and scale in the Edit -> Random menu...) --- Concerning the randomization of doodads: Does anyone know how to set a specific variation of a doodad when creating it with a trigger? So anytime a doodad is created with a trigger it looks the same? Thanks in advance for any hints... | ||

The Action you want to use is Units->Issue Order->Change Autocast Mode. The event you need is probably UI->Key Pressed. So If for example you want to turn autocast for Charge on/off you can have Ctrl+C as your hotkey.

So anytime a doodad is created with a trigger it looks the same? Thanks in advance for any hints... I have never used any of this on an actual map so I have no idea which is the most effective or if there is a better solution but here are some suggestions that work as far as I know: a)Create a still, invulnerable unit instead of a doodad and then use "Actor->Send Actor message to Unit->Model swap" setting the model and variation you want. b)Use the Data editor to force your Doodad to have only a single Variation through editing its models. See this post with PICS! in it. c)Use "Animation->Play animation on Doodads in Region" and fool around with the settings. I know this can be used to switch between doodads of the same kind (eg open door -> closed door). I'm not sure you can change variations with it but you can give it a shot. | ||
