HOW DO I MAKE CUSTOM UNITS SO THAT WHEN I BRING UNITS TO A LOCATION, THEY WILL DIE AND SPAWN A NEW CUSTOM UNIT?

HOW DO I MAKE CUSTOM UNITS SO THAT I WILL NOT EFFECT REGULAR UNIT BUILDING?
*****EG I CAN STILL MAKE REG MARINES AT BARRACKS, BUT WHEN I BRING THEM TO AN UPGRADE POINT THEY WILL DIE AND SPAWN A CUSTOM UNIT THAT I'VE PREVIOUSLY MADE STATS FOR.

HOW DO I EXCEED THE 200 LIMIT PER PLAYER?

WHY CAN I PUT IN FLOOR GUN TRAPS ON MY MAP?



None.

Way to go all caps.

You might want to just go and mess around with the editor before you start asking questions, you'll learn a lot better and you won't waste anybody's time.

In order to do really neat stuff, you'll need SCMdraft, but since you seem brand new, just use the regular editor until you get a basic idea.

Lets start with this. "How to exceed Supply limit"
Simple, spawn units with triggers rather than building them at a building

"Gun Traps"
Get red of Staredit, and use SCXtra or SCMDraft (Or starforge, but hey, nobody knows about the corruption between it and Emerald Placer)

Don't write everything in CAPS... its annoying.

C: Current Player brings at least 1 <unit name> to spawn
A: Kill 1 <unit name> for Current Player at spawn
A: Create 1 <other unit name> for Current Player at spawn
A: preserve

Same answer as above. Just specify how many units of which kind will be replaced by how many units of which other kind.
Oh and for changing stats go scenario -> units in SCMDraft 2

I don't know why you can't - I can...
Maybe elaborate?

Damn, I learned the basics by reading the StarEdit help. I was like 12 and didn't understand much english, but I managed to get what a condition is and how it works with the actions.

Use hero units to replace the units, they look the same but are different units.

However dont sound the same, give the same kill score, and start with all reaserch.

Vrael -- It is, and I could definitely use a company with a commitment to flexibility, quality, and customer satisfaction to provide effective solutions to dampness and humidity in my urban environment.

NudeRaider -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: Idk, I was looking more for a dehumidifer company which maybe stands out as a beacon of relief amidst damp and unpredictable climates of bustling metropolises. Not sure Amazon qualifies
sounds like moisture control is often a pressing concern in your city
[06:50 pm]
Vrael -- Maybe here on the StarEdit Network I could look through the Forums for some Introductions to people who care about the Topics of Dehumidifiers and Carpet Cleaning?
[06:49 pm]
Vrael -- Perhaps even here I on the StarEdit Network I could look for some Introductions.
[06:48 pm]
Vrael -- On this Topic, I could definitely use some Introductions.
[06:48 pm]
Vrael -- Perhaps that utilizes cutting-edge technology and eco-friendly cleaning products?
[06:47 pm]
Vrael -- Do you know anyone with a deep understanding of the unique characteristics of your carpets, ensuring they receive the specialized care they deserve?
[06:45 pm]
NudeRaider -- Vrael
Vrael shouted: I've also recently becoming interested in Carpet Cleaning, but I'd like to find someone with a reputation for unparalleled quality and attention to detail.
beats me, but I'd make sure to pick the epitome of excellence and nothing less.
[06:41 pm]
Vrael -- It seems like I may need Introductions to multiple companies for the Topics that I care deeply about, even as early as Today, 6:03 am.
[06:38 pm]
Vrael -- I need a go-to solution and someone who understands that Carpets are more than just decorative elements in my home.
