Skyman's Adikted question thread

[Skyman]

Hi,

I'm learning the Adikted editor and I'm having a lot of fun with it

My question, when placing creatures in things mode (TAB + c) is it possible somehow to set their 'gold held'?

I would love to know

thank you in advance!

Gold Held cannot be set on Creatures existing on the map from the start of the game. They can only be added to Creatures that are added to the map through the "ADD_CREATURE_TO_LEVEL" command or through Hero Parties. So basically only through the script.

Thanks for the quick reply. I thought it would be that way but now I know for sure

Nice of you to help out.

Hi,

I remember in the original DK1 campaign that at water areas there would be water drops/leaks that make sounds and display a dripping animation. A similar effect is alse present on lava tiles with little fireballs jumping around.

Is there a way to place these doodads in the THING tab?

thank anyone being kind enough to help out!

I don't exactly remember the button, but there is a button (i think it might be e) that will place one of those effects. Try pressing F1 and you'll see a list of commands that can be used within each mode/tab, that really helps when it comes to learning what Adkited can do.

Thanks I'll check it out. The manual and Wiki already tought me a lot

Occasionally I'll ask here because the best editors are here

Btw do you have SteaM?

No I do not. All I got is skype.

I must you what you're making with Adkited, I'm very curious. Or are you just trying to get the hang of Adkited atm?

I've made a few tryout maps already

terrain, rooms, creatures = 100% understood
things: almost fully understood
scriptng: starting to learn
campaing building: haven't learned yet

I'm thinking of making a map series (campaing) with a name such as 'long live the King' or 'Kings Quest' where you must destroy evil and keep your avatar alive. I use the max level script to keep him at a low level initialy but that is just 1 map

Learning more and more every day.

I've been one of the best mappers in SC1:Brood war community back then and was awesome scripter and mapper (even though I say so myself)

Also made Dune 2 maps and Warcraft 3 maps.

My best starcraft map I believe:

I would love to be invited to make maps for Keeper FX and WFTO

I have merged the threads together, it's better to have 1 thread with 10 questions rather than to have a thread for every question.

Thanks, that's a good idea.
