No, he means he edited post 1.
4)How do i create a rename trigger?

Untitled Trigger 001
    Events
        Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -name  as A substring
    Conditions
    Actions
        Player - Set name of (Triggering player) to (Substring((Entered chat string), 6, (Length of (Entered chat string))))

As for question one; I take it as he means how he can change that a demolisher for instance, takes only 1 space in a zeppelin, or a hero takes 5 slots in a zeppelin...
Object Editor > Unit > Stats - transport size

And assist, as in "help".

Use this code. ManyTimes' code will work if you type 'player-name is a variable' or something, and will then set your name to 'r-name is a variable'. It also only works for one player.

Thank you.

Ehm the rename code doesn't work, it just set the player's name "player 1" "player 2" etc. in an attachment to the player's color (red - player 1).

you can't rename the trigger.All the other things are under resources>units>and you click the footman.The zeppelin part is obvious.There is a "Art scailing value" and "At- selection scale" for your other questions

 

[The_Word]

no no lol i dont want to rename the trigger.
i want to create a "-rename" trigger, for exp, a player writes "-rename war", and his name will from now on be "war". understand?

> Ehm the rename code doesn't work

Hmmm... Obviously you did something wrong. Both the triggers posted seem fine. Show your trigger.

I would guess that you didn't use 'A substring' in the event part? You used 'Exact match' instead? Anyway, can't help without looking at your trigger.

 

[The_Word]

As far as i see, i did EXACTLY what he wrote:

 

[Artificial]

You didn't. You're using -rename instead of -setname. It doesn't matter otherwise, but it has one letter less. Therefore you need to change the number 9 to 8 in the condition and the number 10 to 9 in the action.
Also make sure the condition string has a space in the end.

Thank you very much, it works.
