Alright, trying to get this done today...

How would I set up the creep spawn system where if some players are not playing that creeps don't spawn for them?
 
Create a empty variable of type player group
Add all players of type user that are currently playing at map initialization
Then check for the player to be in that group in the events
Or do a Pick every player in player group using the variable
 
Alright, here it is...the triggers before I go and test this...

Map Initialization
Code: 
Actions
    -------- Setting Player Forces Vars --------
    Player Group - Add Player 1 (Red) to Players_Top
    Player Group - Add Player 2 (Blue) to Players_Top
    Player Group - Add Player 3 (Teal) to Players_Top
    Player Group - Add Player 7 (Green) to Players_Left
    Player Group - Add Player 8 (Pink) to Players_Left
    Player Group - Add Player 12 (Brown) to Players_Left
    Player Group - Add Player 4 (Purple) to Players_Right
    Player Group - Add Player 6 (Orange) to Players_Right
    Player Group - Add Player 6 (Orange) to Players_Right

And Spawn Creeps
Code: 
Actions
    -------- Spawn Creeps Top --------
    Player Group - Pick every player in Players_Top and do (Actions)
        Loop - Actions
            If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                If - Conditions
                    ((Picked player) slot status) Equal to Is playing
                Then - Actions
                    Unit - Create 5 EnemyType for Player 9 (Gray) at (Center of Rect 000 <gen>) facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
                    Wait 0.50 seconds
                    Unit - Create 5 EnemyType for Player 9 (Gray) at (Center of Rect 000 <gen>) facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
                    Wait 0.50 seconds

                Else - Actions
                    Do nothing


So, would this work?
 
It might be working, but it wouldn't help, because you add the players anyway, you do not check if they are actually playing.
 
Okay, sorry, but it doesn't work...oh well... :banghead:
 
Try making a group, then make a text message telling players they have to type "-join game" to play. Then make a trigger that wehn someone types "-join game" it adds them to the group. And make it only spawn creeps to players in the group.
 
lol here lemme help out, i think this is what your going for..

Code: 
KillBrown
    Events
        Time - Elapsed game time is 2.00 seconds
    Conditions
        ((<player group variable> slot status) Equal to Is playing)
  <or if its single>
        ((Player 1 (Red) controller) Equal to User) and ((Player 1 (Red) slot status) Equal to Is playing)
    Actions
        Unit - Kill Peasant 0006 <gen>

then just have your next level thing like this:
Code: 
Next Level

        Defeat Equal to False

        Set Gold_Amount = (Gold_Amount + 2)
        -------- Lives Comment --------
        Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((String(Lives)) +  lives left!)
        -------- Level Setup --------
        Set Level_Number = (Level_Number + 1)
        -------- Timer --------
        If (Level_Number Equal to 1) then do (Countdown Timer - Start Next_Level as a One-shot timer that will expire in 60.00 seconds) else do (Countdown Timer - Start Next_Level as a One-shot timer that will expire in 30.00 seconds)
        Countdown Timer - Create a timer window for (Last started timer) with title ((Level  + (String(Level_Number))) +  in...)
        Countdown Timer - Hide (Last created timer window)
        Countdown Timer - Show (Last created timer window) for Player 1 (Red)
        -------- Set Next Level --------
        If (Level_Number Equal to 1) then do (Wait 29.50 seconds) else do (Do nothing)
        Game - Display to (All players) the text: |c0000cdf9Next leve...
        Trigger - Run Set Levels <gen> (checking conditions)
        Trigger - Run Gold <gen> (checking conditions)

Set Levels
    Events
    Conditions
        Defeat Equal to False
    Actions
        -------- Level 1 --------
        If (Level_Number Equal to 1) then do (Set Monster_Type = Dark Forest Runner) else do (Do nothing)
        If (Level_Number Equal to 1) then do (Set Monster_Amount = 8) else do (Do nothing)(one for each level)

Gold
    Events
    Conditions
        Level_Number Greater than or equal to 2
        Defeat Equal to False
    Actions
        -------- Player Gold --------
        Player - Add Gold_Amount to Player 1 (Red) Current gold
        Game - Display to Player Group - Player 1 (Red) the text: ((|c0000cdf9You recieved |r + (String(Gold_Amount))) + (|c0000cdf9 extra gold for completing level |r + (String((Level_Number - 1)))))

oops sorry about all the extra triggers i just forgot exactly what you wanted :eek:
 
hehe, i love making tower defenses and stuff. but im never going to release them, because there all one-player just for me because i cant host.
 
Awww...too bad lol I would enjoy playing some other non-gay rip off TDs
 
lol, the other wierd thing is... most of them dont even have more then 1 race. i just customize them all to how i like them and they all upgrade 3 times
 
I call it that becasue I found, and sadly played some gayed Legend of Zelda TD that looked like a DBZ td and someother TD i've played before...just with different names...which pisses me off...so I'm making my own
 
oh lol thats a perfect reason, have you ever noticed that all mauls have exact same creeps and difficutly? EVERY single one is wintermaul with different terrain, and towers, and sometimes added spawns. But most of the people cant even figure out how to make a spawn!!!

    Mayo also has vinegar. Vinegar is a very important part of it, it's effectively a delivery method FOR vinegar but hidden

  • Varine Varine:
    It's a neat ingredient. But yeah it's eggs. But a LOT of people think eggs count as dairy because of the fucking food pyramid the US keeps trying to make a thing
  • Varine Varine:
    I think on the new one they did change it, but idk. I don't really care whatever the government is doing right now because it's consistently absurd. Like what is RFK doing in charge of health anything? I love the bear story because WTF was that, but also, pretty much every time he talks it's WTF. Like even his voice sounds microwaved

  • Varine Varine:
    The pyramid is fucking dumb as shit, no matter how you arrange it.
  • Varine Varine:
    It's actually remarkably easy to make mayonnaise though. Fun fact, it USED to kind of be a French mother sauce. I believe that Careme considered it one, it may have been aioli but that has also built a different meaning than it used to. An aioli is just mayonnaise I mixed with other shit typically, I didn't start it don't come at me
  • Varine Varine:
    It's very hard to do it on a large scale though
  • Varine Varine:
    Depending on how you pour the oil the consistency can vary wildly, but that's true for most emulsions. I can only make about two quarts at a time with my robo coup, and if I have to make several in series because I forgot to order it becomes really obvious even when I do it. We have to wait and mix them all together to make sure we have the same thing.
  • Varine Varine:
    Hollandaise is also kind of like that, emulsions require a very steady hand to do exactly the same every time.
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I live in an age with electricity so it's way fucking faster, but when I was just a boy trying to find my place I had some hardcore chefs that made use do things like that by hand. It is WAY easier to get right by hand because you control it and can feel it, but it takes soooooo much longer. And on the scale a modern kitchen requires... I serve 400-500 guests on average per day right now, if I had 100 then we could do things way better
  • Varine Varine:
    But we can't do that. In the winter yeah, but I HAVE to get people through here right now so I can afford the staff that we CAN do that. We have about 100 days of summer, and if that summer doesn't make us what it will, then I can't operate the other most of the year with my staff. The owner is talking about closing two days a week to cut down on labor, I told him he should cut down on vacations and it did not go great. I do think I won though, I have to keep my fucking core staff and they have to be gainfully employed
  • Varine Varine:
    Sure some of them might take a second job, but I can't just cut my entire staff to unlivable hours, nor can I can cut them off all winter if I want them to come back.
  • Varine Varine:
    And also, there is no fucking way I'm pulling these hours come september. I only do this right now because I have to, the second I don't have to be the one doing it I won't be
  • Varine Varine:
    I have a 5 person core staff in the kitchen, not including me or Chef Ben
  • Varine Varine:
    Though two of those people are likely not making it this year. One of them has been replaced, the other I am kind of trying to. He's being a giant bitch, today I had to get onto him because in the three hours before I left he had taken like thirty minutes for cigarette breaks
  • Varine Varine:
    And he was also complaining to me the other day that he was out of weed so couldn't smoke any before work that day, and was confused about why I was annoyed he was telling me, his boss, that he is smoking weed everyday before work.
     +1
  • Varine Varine:
    Like yeah I can tell. I don't need to fucking know.
  • Varine Varine:
    So now he's getting scrutinized and will not be top of the list. I know I don't have the smartest people but I do expect them to have some common fucking sense
  • Varine Varine:
    I did do a rare thing for me and hire a girl last month without warning. Everyone was made at me because I started her at like 21, but she worked with me before and I was like don't care. She made 19 at her old job and I wanted her to come work with me, she is the best
     +1
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm going to get her a raise at the end of the summer. She wants to go to school again, but I want her to still work with me so.... she kind of can just tell me what the price is. I can go to 25 if she keeps up. I need to get her onto line more, that's what she wants, but I need her where she is and it's not fair that she doesn't get the little bit of raise that comes with it. She can do it no problem, I've worked with her there.
  • Varine Varine:
    It's just hard to move and train people unnecessarily right now. And also the line fucking sucks, it's not any more fun. This is turn and burn so I have the bankroll, and everyone suffers for it
  • Varine Varine:
    Eventually we'll get it balanced, we'
  • Varine Varine:
    we're starting online orders and stuff, but I also turn that off all the time because I barely keep up trying to be the best at Sysco shit
  • Varine Varine:
    I think it's gonna be a good fall and winter though. We're going to have a good staff, they will get along, they will be able to manage the workload and the complications, they know how to really cook this year, like every person on line knows their steak temps. Some of them use thermometers a lot and they don't always use them right, but they do know how to do it. Failure, especially in this field, is the only way to get better. They'll get it
  • Varine Varine:
    They won't get feel down while they do the thermometer, but we didn't have an instant read probe when I was learning. Like they did but god knows how off it is, you HAD to do it by feel. Even if the chef was fine with me bringing my own, it takes too long. Poke and know
