New challenge map

Post by LucidMoses »

I've mostly have a new challenge map setup. In the Map Editor I have a new scenario almost completed but for one thing;

The idea is to be able to finish the game without ever placing and Item. later in the game you can Shift-Click to place a ghost and have a construction bot place it. How do I give that ability to the player right from the start?

The robot part I already have handled in a different way but I tested your idea. It still doesn't allow you to place the shadow items so there is never anything for the robots to do.

You also need to give them the research for blueprints

Yes, That sounds like it would work. But I can not find anywhere in the map editor where I can give them any research item. How would I do that?
