I have been trying to make Lurker Eggs at command for a map I'm currently working on and I have a trigger that looks something like this. It is a simple trigger one would think but it simply isn't putting out a Lurker Egg like I tell it to...



Is something wrong or is it simply the fact that I can't make Lurker Eggs via triggers and only in the map editor?

EDIT: Don't know why the trigger box isn't working right either...

Only units that are placeable in the unit layer of StarEdit can be created via triggers.

Lurker Eggs don't fit into that description

Just have them preplaced and move them.

Preplace, hide. Rinse, repeat.

Once its gone (dies), its gone forever.

Sadly enough.. Ok thanks for the help guys... I simply won't use Lurker Eggs like I wanted to because I would need like unlimited amounts of them.

Player "shoots" 1 zerg lurker egg.

Center location "Egg".
Create 1 Zerg Scourge at location "Egg".
Kill all Zerg Scourge at location "Egg".
Move all Zerg Lurker Egg to location "Hidden".

Rinse, repeat.

Bring, commands, and center view location don't work with the eggs either.

Burrowed Zergling.

Center view? lol
Eggs are anyunits.

I think he meant Center Location, (AKA Move Location, in SCM Draft)

Although are you sure about that one? I could sworn you could center locations on them..

I know ive seen a bound with eggs used as the respawn location placer before. ;o

But those are always preplaced, aren't they?

Yes... This works when they are preplaced and you move then. Creating them=no... I have tried this both ways...

Eggs are anyunits, you can center on them by centering on anyunits, or detect them with anyunits.
They might be men too, not sure.

I know the egg itself when its actually morphed and not preplaced is considered men.
