i'd like to change the color of a unit, (while playing the game), but after that the unit still belongs to the same player.

Give the unit to a computer player who is rescuable.
Then only human Players can gain the unit while touching them.
The unit will still have the rescuable computer's color.

ok that worked. The player color is green.
I made a drone resuable, so the drone has a different color, blue. Then I tried to make a base and units with that same color. The hatchery still is blue, but any units coming from the hatchery are now the players color, green. so any way to keep the blue color for new units?

not really
you could give all zerg units to a rescuable computer again, but you would have new problems with that because you always need a unit next to the zerg units or you need to create a huge system cycling all units. Then you will only have problems, if another human player brings a unit next to zerg units what will happen in your map, I think.

You could make all units become a different unit upon creation, but I doubt you want to do that.

If you do though the idea would be to center a location on specific units that the player could build, then remove the unit at that location, give the computer the unit you want to replace it with, and temporarily give the player something to rescue the unit with.

Invisible Observer ontop of Hatchery FTW.


Drone builds Hatchery
Hatchery is BLUE
Give Hatchery to BLUE
Hatchery Spawns BLUE Larva
Spawn GREEN Observer
BLUE LARVA > EGG > UNIT
Wtf pwn.

Only drawback with these technique is that you may have to use hyper triggers, and its gonna need either alot of locations, or one location running around rapidly.
Random Puzzle:
There is a number, six letters it contains.
Take one away, and twelve is what remains.

Previous Winner: Vi3t-X.

Mafia Information: To avoid controversy, my previous Avatar was Rikku, and my previous siggy was two links, one to a rickroll video, and the other to Hikari's theme song.
