Ever since i made a lurker one of my levels the team thats greyish blue is now a strange black/blue pixely collor, its incompatible with anything but BW, it reffers to two BW units at coordinates in just..space.. and the lurkers do not show up and in the place that shows all the different units for levels the lurker is absent. any help?

Lurkers are Broodwar units, therefore it becomes a .scx, or a Broodwar only map.

I couldn't open the map with SCMDraft, and it removed all the units with classic. I played it though, and didn't see any lurkers or infested Terrans. My best guess is that you placed them for players who didn't join the game. If this is the case, you can make sure they're there by placing them for neutral player (or host) and giving them to their respectful players at the beginning of the game. If you let them start with the host, then p1 will control units for all players who didn't join. A better thing though would probably be to distribute them evenly between players.

if you look on the left of the map, it shows the list of levels (boxes with units in them). when you beat a level it kills the unit you just beat as to show your progression. the second row down far left should be a lurker belonging to team 8 with the rest of them. also when you actualy get to the level involving the lurkers they do not spawn. and what do you mean you couldnt open it? is my map corrupted?

Oh, I tried again to get the error message, and it worked now. Anybody know what happened? The message was something along the lines of: Corrupted file: C:\ Anyway, the lurker burrows, then you can't see it as player 1. Solutions: 1. Place an invincible tower nearby for the allied computer. 2. Share vision with p8 3. Just use disabled sprites (???) 4. Make them p12 units, the players should catch on what they are pretty quickly anyway. 5. Junk yard dog them. If you decrease the square size, they might not even move. It should keep them from attacking though.

Nah, try a few of my solutions. It might be related to the way your triggers are oriented.

lol just not worth that much toil

I don't see a problem. When I modified triggers for the lurkers to spawn, they worked. The only thing I could see wrong is that the triggers for level 6 weren't even implemented yet, but I doubt that is the problem.

Dude, Don't be afraid posting your map here. Nobody will steal it, and even if they will we know it's your map ;). Besides if you're working on a map, never say "lol just not worth that much toil", cause thinking in that direction won't bring you to the next step.

oh please its merrels. with all the bitching he does at me i wouldnt be suprised if he manages to hack a satalite and drop it on my house. i did the levels one at a time, and no matter what i cant make lurkers spawn and not burrow, so im changing Rudy Juliani to some other unit.
