Map editor help

[Jeteye1]

I have been making my own custom maps for EAW with the map editor and I have a few questions.

1 Is there a way to copy a object to as to make a wall of sorts out of them?

2 When placing objects that are indigenous can I just put there spawn house or just put the indigenous unit itself on the map will they work properly in game?

3 Although this is more of a modding question how can I remove some units from the game?

4 How can I change the waters texture? I keep trying put it doesnt work.

5 How can I make it so that when playing the map you can not scroll of the edge of the map?

6 Why won't my weather effects work?

7 How can i change a space maps backround from a solid color to a space backround?

If anyone could help me with these plz do. tnks

1: Use Cory And Paste, or use the scatter brush tool
2: You can do both. Indegenous spawn houses will spawn indegnouses, and just the units will, well, be just the units.
3: Delete their entry in the XML files
4: Water tab, High-LOD texture and Low-LOD texture. You have to set which one to use.
5: Set the boundaries closer
6: Weather has two sections: 1 for the Weather Effect, and another for the actual weather (as in the particles). Set both correctly
7: Its under "nature": Primary Skydome is for the stars, secondary is for the Nebulas (pretty colors)

Off-topic : One last thing before letting you freely converse using GameToast's Private Messaging System : In case you would eventually share either Knowledges or Advices which might be helpful to other members being equally interested in conceiving Star Wars : Empire At War Modifications or Levels, I would wonder whether you would mind providing publicly some of them through this thread, while reminding that this Choice remains personal and will not be influenced at all...

Ok a few more questions.
How do I add mining facilitys ,abandoned buildings and satellite defence stationso that they are capturable and respawn like in the shipped maps after they are destroyed. i tried putting a asteroid mining facility on neutral but that didnt work. It just says its construcing and never does anything.

I added pirates to a space map I made and it wont work, I dont understand what the matter is?

If I want indigenous units to attack both rebels and imperials can I just set them to neutral?

If I want units allready on the map when you statr can I just place them where i want and set who they are allied with?

Also with pirates, can i change any unit to be allied with them. I have a pirate asteroid base satellite defences, pirate docks, pirate ships and asteroid mining facilities all set as Black Sun pirates.
A: Will the pirates use these things ( make ships with the pirate dock things and mine the asteroids and set up satelite defences)
B: Will this work at all?

I've tried all the method I know for transfering custom map to EaW but, (the HALO maps I was going to submit) they don't appear on the skirmish maps screen. And the editor won't allow me to test the maps. Can someone give me some instructions

Off-topic : Well, apparently, the Advices I may have dispensed along most of the messages I have inserted into the current GameToast sub-forum have not been that consulted and taken into account by the persons usually browsing this same Location, and that's why I would lastly like to remind the members having posted replies inside this thread to have a look at the non-exhaustive List referring to the Alternate Communities partly or even entirely dedicated towards Star Wars : Empire At War, and being easily findable through this web-address, amongst other topics similar to this last one. On the other hand, I would not want you to look upon this Suggestion as being comparable to a Requirement, but rather to sort of Substitution Means of getting your hands down on the Precise Details and Resources you could need in order to get Responses addressed to the Requests you have phrased along the precedent posts...
