Dialog Button Actions...

[Mr.Tutorial]

So i have human, orc, undead, nightelf, ents, and bloodelf... lets just do human for right now.

Ok heres the problem. I'm trying to have a footman wars so right when you enter the game a dialog comes up with those races... I want it so when whatever player between 1-12 picks a race they want, it makes that type of building and spawns that type of unit for the person the person that chose that certain type of race.

I know its confusing, just read through it a couple of times...

**P.S.** I'd appreciate if you gave me noobie directions such as, GUI triggers and tell me what variables are which whatevers...*

Thanks,
Mr.Tutorial

did you not read what i said? I know how to make a dialog... i just dont know how to make the button actions work for my sake... thats what i explained above.

What do you not get? It's a simple event:

Dialog - A dialog button is clicked for <Dialog>

I'm not going to do it for you. I assume you've read a tutorial. So, what part of creating a dialog do you not get? It should be simple enough to detect which button was clicked and perform actions accordingly. You create units for the triggering player.

 

[esb]

Just Create units at center of starting location when a certain button is pushed.

Thanks for giving me a hint esb... never thought of that... and Ghan I didn't mention that i did every part of that tutorial to get me where I am. I was stuck, least you could of done was given me a hint like esb.

> least you could of done was given me a hint like esb.

I did. Create units for the triggering player. That way you only need one trigger. Just check which button they pushed.
