Wc3 TD Trigger Edit not leak if player there, survivor, ...?

[Mancala]

Hi,

Happy 2009 second day everyone! May it be a great one!

I have a Warcraft III DBZ TD map, which I also attached in this message!

How would the map be edited to where the triggers would only leak if a person/computer was there like if the space was empty no leaking, or if the person/computer left no leaking? Please and thank you! If the person/computer is there then leaking? Please and thank you!

How would it also be set to survivor mode with the triggers to where if you leak your loss rather then a group loss? Please and thank you!

Right now the title of the map is called DBZ TD The Last Saysens when you create the map from warcraft. How would that also be changed to something like DBZ TD w/ Hero (Survivor) or something like that instead when the game is created also? Please and thank you!

How would I also change the suggest player to 1-8 (survivor) instead of Full House also? Please and thank you!

After the map is start, while the map is loading there is a description there that tells a little bit about the map. How would add to that description to say something like there is a hero when first starts, Survivors, and edited by [email protected] or something like that? Please and thank you!

Have a great one! God bless! Thanks so much!

Open the map in World Editor, the go to Scenario - Map Description..That will bring up a menu called Map Properties. From here you can change the title of the map, the players recommended and the description. Then on the same menu click "Loading Screen" And change what you want there.

Ah..for your first one, where you wanted them to stop spawning if they arent there..you will have to edit the trigger "Spawn Monsters" in the folder "invalid Spawns". What you want to to is a simple change..though confusing to get right..Lol

Ill give you an example of what you need..This is a action in the trigger that needs to be changed.

Code: Select all

Unit - Create 1 EnemyType[pointer] for Player 12 (Brown) at (Random point in invalid Spawn Top Left <gen>) facing (Position of (Triggering unit))

That makes it so whether the person is playing or not the units will spawn..you need to simply change it to

Code: Select all

If ((Player 2 (Blue) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 EnemyType[pointer] for Player 12 (Brown) at (Random point in invalid Spawn Top Left <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)

You make this trigger by doing the following..

Spoiler:

Make a new event for the trigger "If/Then/Else"..not multiple functions though..Then to start it off..

Condition should be "Player Slot Comparision"..then change it as above..

Then = Unit - Create Units Facing Angle. it should show

"Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees"

You will need to change "Footman" to the Varible "EnemyType", then another thing will pop up next to it..change that to the Varible "pointer".

Change Player 1, to Player 12, and change the location to the regions that ive listed for each color..

And for the Else, change it to Do Nothing...and your done...now just copy that and change it for each other player.

Heres the list of spawn points for the corresponding color..
Red = invalid Spawn Top Left2
Blue = (Shown Above)
Teal = invalid Spawn Top Right
Purple = invalid Spawn Top Right2
Yellow = invalid Spawn Bottom Left
Orange = invalid Spawn Bottom Left2
Pink = invalid Spawn Bottom Right
Green = invalid Spawn Bottom Right2

Also..for your Dialog Button..you need to make four variables and edit three triggers...however i lack the knowledge to make one of the varibles..but for the rest do as follows..

Firstly your variables...Open up the trigger editor and click the "X" button at the top near the folder button..or press Ctrl+B. Now you need to make three variables..press the green "X" or Ctrl+N. Name the first varible "ChooseMe" and change the type to Dialog. Then make another, this time with the name "ChooseTeam" and another "ChooseSurvivor". After your done with that close the varible editor..you wont need that anymore..then in the trigger editor open the folder called "Choose Game Mode" This is your dialog box..however since the varibles were somehow deleted..you need to replace the ones in the triggers with the ones youve just made..Do the same for the triggers "Survivor Chosen" and "Team Chosen" But..upon looking at the trigger "Survivor Chosen" The main part of that is missing..and unless i know the creators intention..or could guess (but i lack that ability sorry) someone will will have to help with that...

Also..im not sure if the varible im missing for the triggers "Is_Team_Game" Make any big difference...and also missing the varible "Is_Dead"..But as ive said..im a noob with varibles..so i cant help with that..someone else will...ive changed some varibles and spawning triggers..ill leave the Title and such for you..while someone else will have to fix the dialog buttons..

I apologize as i cant upload files as attachments..i think my comp blocks it..so download here instead

Err..btw if your wondering why i typed it all out instead of just putting the map on..i wanted to tell you how to do it for any future reference..though it can all be done better without leaks..but thats much more work than i want to do..

Hopefully this is what you wanted..goodluck!

Hi,

THanks for the reply!

I was able to figure out everything except the survivor part. Thanks for helping me!

I reattached the map with what i was able to fix so far thanks to help! The map says survivor, however, that part is not fixed yet just ready for when able to be fixed!

I would also love to get the map Survivor mode where if you leak it is your loss rather then if you leak then Team loss? Please and thank you!

I looked on Game Mode & Lives and there is already Triggers in there Choose Game Mode, Survivor Choosen, and Team Choosen, however, there is no button for red to click on for Survivor nor is there anything that I am able to see to type either? Please and thank you!

I also tried to look in the varible which I have no clue what I am looking at, however, there does not appear to be anything there for teams nor Survivors? Please and thank you!

Thanks so much! Have a great one! God bless!
