12 players and 3 computers over 3 forces- is it possible?

[beauzulu]

hi there, i was wondering if it were possible [on an AOS map] to have three forces with four human players/heroes and one "creep"spawning computer per force. ive discussed it with some people and they told me that it may be possible to do this with nuetral hostile as the computer for one force, nuetral passive or w.e for another and another nuetral force for the other team. but would it also be possible to have "nuetral creeps" which are not allied to any force [much like the nuetral creeps in dota and many other maps]

if this were possible what triggers would i need to put in the map? if i havent made much sense tell me and ill try explain a little better, thanks!

Yes it is possible. I asked about this too.



I'll post a link to my thread once I find it...



EDIT: nvm it wasn't a thread it was a private message I deleted a whole ago. Sorry

 

[beauzulu]

ok thanks, ill b waiting

 

[Avaleirra]

Wait I think I can sortof answer.


You need a trigger that occurs at map initialization or 0.01 elapsed time that changes the forces to treat certain players as either friend or enemy.

For neutral creeps you could set them to enemies with all players when created.

ok wait, so i put every nuetral down in the map and then using triggers make each individual unit friends/foes with whoever i want?
and each time i have creeps spawn i have a trigger that allies them with whoever etc?

 

[beauzulu]

BUMP*

i really need to know the approach i make towards this, do i make the nuets allied/not allied enmasse or by each individual unit?

that makes sense, instead of having 3 different computer teams, creating units to be allied/enemy of the forces.

that could work actually!

 

[beauzulu]

oiii microsheep!! i did it buddy! longest bloddy trigger lol but ill show u my map so far, im trying to make some heroes now but yeahhh hang on ill attatch in a sec

 

[beauzulu]

dont look at the map as of yet lol im changing all the terrain etc and some triggers so dont look at them just go to initialization folder -> alliances for the current trigger that im using to set each alliance

EDIT: took off the map got afraid of mapstealers lol ill pm u sometime and ask ya if u can test my map ?

^ My map I came up with recently... has 12 players, each with a Spawn. If you make Spawns be Owned (but not controllable!) by Players, you won't need Computer controlled Spawns.

no this is not possible, since w3 supports only 12 players in one game (doesnt matter who controls them)

but, you could use neutrals for spawns, however triggering them is kind a "hard", and also you will loose the possibility to have neutrals on the map

how do you know that he wont steal it

 

[beauzulu]

yeah thats wat i meant, having the computers controlling the creeps, i have achieved this with using computer hostile as basic enemy creeps with computers extra/victim/passive to take control of creeps
