King of the Hill timer

Heya, yesterday I asked for help with my King of the Hill Timer (a unit enters region and triggers a timer, when timer expires unitowner win), and got a really nice answer.

However, it seems like only Player 1 can trigger the timer. All other players can trigger the timer window, but not the actual timer, anyone who knows why? I can't see any problem in my code:

Code:
enters
    Events
        Unit - A unit enters woe <gen>
    Conditions
        ((Entering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    Actions
        Set plrnmr = (Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))
        Set kingunit[plrnmr] = (Triggering unit)
        Countdown Timer - Start wintime[plrnmr] as a One-shot timer that will expire in 180.00 seconds
        Countdown Timer - Create a timer window for wintime[plrnmr] with title ((Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) +  )
        Set wintimerwindow[plrnmr] = (Last created timer window)
        Countdown Timer - Show (Last created timer window)
        Trigger - Add to leaves <gen> the event (Unit - A unit leaves woe <gen>)
        Trigger - Add to wins <gen> the event (Time - wintime[(Player number of (Triggering player))] expires)

EDIT: Uploaded a picture to show how it looks like (and yes, its not just the timer not showing, it doesnt start)

I think it should be because of the array size, because there isn't any other mistake there. If it's size is=1, then it can only handle 1 player(in this case, player 1). Try it :p
 
Yeah was that, thank you!
I had forgot to look at those because I used some old variables before which had the array size set to 8. Anyway, thank you! :)

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

  • The Helper The Helper:
    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/

    What do you think Tom?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    I will have to get used to this.
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    The latest news feed looks good
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I would like to see it again like Ghan had it the first time with pagination though - without the pagination that view will not work but with pagination it just might...
