    Custom(ish) units

    Hey all hi all, I'm making a map in which there is a central base of (sort of) Night Elves. That is, they're almost like the standard Elves, but I want them to be able to train and use some "campaign only" units (like sentries) and some technically non-elven units, such as Blood Elf...

    Random - but only once

    I've (finally!) got this working mostly correctly. It generates a bunch of units for Player 12 (a neutral hostile computer player), tells 'em to board a ship, and then they get dropped off somewhere and go a-raiding, just to make the map a little bit more interesting. I've designated 5 areas...

    Want specific weather effects - but not all the time

    I've got a nice random weather system working out, sometimes it rains, sometimes it doesn't, etc. Is there a way to make other effects (specifically lightning and "rainy" ambient sounds) to play only when it's actually raining?

    Set level for one created unit?

    I have a cage in my map that contains a prisoner. If a player breaks open the cage, one of three things will pop out and join them: a priest, an orc shaman or a dryad. Problem is, if the player is using humans and they get the dryad, there's no way for her to be able to abolish magic until the...

    Spawn trigger works TOO well!!

    ...I think. Basically, I've made a map where I want a Makrura pooldweller to spawn at some random point in the map every nine minutes - just to give players a little bit something more to worry about. Nothing major - a group of gold-harvesting peasants briefly converted to militia could...

    Created units selectable?

    Forgive the obvious new-ness of this question, but I've been reading tutorials and searching these fora but nothing tells me exactly what I need to make this trigger work correctly. Rather than bore you with my bad coding (because I can't even remember how many variations and combinations...
