Getting Back to making Maps. Thanks for your help. 2014

1) How do you lower a building into the ground?
2) When you enter a Region square how can you make a screen so it only shows inside the building?
3) How does Item combinations work? item 3 + item 2 = item 5
4) Can you stack items?
5) How do create quests?

1) Impossible. Only works with doodads if you hold down ctrl and then press page up / down.

2) You want to set the camera bounding box. Function is "Camera - Set Camera Bounds"

3) Triggers. Theres probably plenty of tutorials about this in the tutorials sub-forum.

4) See 3), same answer.

 

[garet10]

alright thanks I'll give them a try. Now from 1) I could use a Doodad and change it into the Building Image? then lower it below? maybe

 

[Accname]

Of course. You can use any model for a doodad.

I have another, How you get the wolf that got killed back to the spot where you found it? not like 5 feet over. Or I can make a Region square and spawn one wolf and till that wolf dies don't spawn another. I like to have it in one spot.

Well, the easiest solution is probably to mark the wolf with a unit variable and put a region on it. When the wolf dies, spawn a new wolf in the region and mark the new wolf for the unit variable, if you want them to keep respawning.

 

[garet10]

How do you make this unit variable thing? I don't know how you would make the Trigger.
I have unit dies, I put the Name and type Unit & Value none? How do you make the trigger to make it work?

 

[garet10]

Would you use a different map, like make a new map for Inside the buildings?

To answer your last two posts, check out the basic tutorials. The answers to those questions should be in there. Don't know where to start with the tutorials? The following sister site has a fairly comprehensive list which helped me a lot: http://world-editor-tutorials.thehelper.net/

Alright I read that stuff but No help on How to create the Spawn. I made a few regions on the map, I want 1 wolf to spawn in each one, and only one till it dies then re-spawn after 30 seconds?

 

[Xialian]

Pick each wolf in a Unit Array and make a trigger detecting which one dies, and then set a wait or anything of that description of 30 seconds and then create a new one. Remember to mark newly spawned wolf.

 

[garet10]

I don't know where the option of Unit Array is. I a making a different Trigger I just put wolves on the map and when they die they just respawn after 30 secs.

 

[Monovertex]

Is it possible to put a delay in the resurrection spell? (Tauren's hero, ankh of resurrection, etc)

If yes, then just give that spell with delay, no mana cost and no cooldown to the wolf.

 

[garet10]

How can I make a neutral unit turn hostile after they get attacked?

 

[death_knight]

Well if you want them to be hostile if and only if they get attacked first, then my best guess would be to do tat with triggers

 

[KaerfNomekop]

A unit Is attacked -> Change owner of Attacked Unit to Neutral Hostile?

 

[garet10]

If I run from the unit how do you make goes back to Neutral? How do you mess with the range they chase you till they return? The map I am making is like World of Warcraft.

 

[KaerfNomekop]

I don't know what the WoW system is like, so some more details would be good. As for the return distance, that would be either Creeps - Guard Distance or Guard Return Distance under Advanced > Gameplay Constants. But the units won't return to neutral state that way, unless you force them to sleep or something. A periodic Sleep spell on the creeps could be another method.

 

[garet10]

A unit Is attacked -> Change owner of Attacked Unit to Neutral Hostile?

What about using this one he posted and when I go out of range then it goes back to Neutral. Like *Player stops attacking unit change unit to Neutral?*?

 

[garet10]

But this is not a big deal since all Northshire mobs only are Neutral. The ones around Elwynn Forest are Hostile.
