Trigger Editor LF Work

[Zhirgoyt]

First time posting on this forum :thup:

I'm just wondering if there are any people out there that needs any help with triggering for any maps you're creating. I'm bored and need something to do, + I really hate terrain-work :banghead:

So if there is anyone who needs anything talk to me pleaaaaase, I''m going insane with boredom. :nuts:

Well if you could work this out I would be pretty happy
the origianl ideia was to in each special effect do 100 dmg 250 AoE... but if u could put it without leaks it should give u enogh work....
Majo leak: only stops when kills the unit

        Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability

        Unit - Pause LS_caster
        Trigger - Turn on Lightning Strike Act <gen>
        Wait until (LS_check Equal to True), checking every 0.10 seconds

        Unit - Cause LS_caster to damage LS_target, dealing (200.00 x (Real((Level of Lightning Strike  for LS_caster)))) damage of attack type Spells and damage type Normal

Thx in advance

let me get this straight, you want a trigger which will damage units for 100 damage when they are hit and 250 in an area around it?

 

[vespt]

Sorry to take this longbut i was in bed alrdy :S
The objective is to damage a enemy 4 200dmg but i put a special effect of thunder clap every 50ms until it reaches the targer....
So the objective was to damage the target for 200dmg and in every 50 ms until it reaches the target do a thunder clap(could be a dummy unit doing for example)....

Any doubts ask :S Thx

 

[Zhirgoyt]

Hmm ok

Hmm ok, I will try and get back to you. Might take a while though seeing as I am going on vacation soon:shades: If you don't hear from me I will try when I get back.

 

[vespt]

ok m8 ^^
Thx

 

[Zhirgoyt]

Ok, I think I've gotten it somehow. Just try it out and see what you think of it. It's probably not the optimal solution, but it might work ok:thup:

Just reply here with any issues.

I've uploaded it to my server since I don't if you can upload it to here yet

I also named the spell "Thundershot" ^^

add the dummy unit the ability locust, because I could order it to move.
with locust it will be untargetable

Hey. I'm making a TD map and I managed to figure out quite some of them triggers, but i still need some help with spawning builders, lives, leaking and that multiboard that shows the time till next level, etc... The tutorial has already been posted here (http://www.thehelper.net/forums/showthread.php?t=45616). If you scroll down a third of the page you get to Part III: Triggerwerkz. And thats where I stop. I dont know how to make those variables

and that green cross thingy. :/ Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Zhirgoyt]

ok thanks Nexor learning new things still

Ok I've changed the locust thing so the missiles are un-targetable. This is the updated version.

The variables are created by pushing a button on the toolbar of your trigger editor, that looks like the green cross thing you're talking about but instead it's golden. When pushed this brings up another window. There push the green cross and write the names of the variables as shown in the tutorial, also change the variable type to what is shown in the page. The other ones I have never seen before and they seem to be more comments than anything else. I would advise you to write this trigger without the red variable things.

If you want I could write the thing out for you and send it to you... but the best thing is to learn by doing:thup:

Good luck!

Here is 35 level long TD. There is all timers etc. But just 3p coz i created it to play with my friends ^^

 

[Zhirgoyt]

aaah WilliamPa, where's the learning?

 

[Marvos]

Ah, yes, that helped A LOT. Now i made my first TD map :thup:. There are 2 other things I could use some help with.
The first one is quite embarassing: My TD is set to victory if all units belonging to brown are killed and there are no further levels(occurs 4 seconds after that), BUT its also set to lose if all lives have been lost(1.5 seconds). So, here's what happens: I get to the final wave with 1 live left, and the last unit of that wave leaks. The game then displays Defeat for 1.5 seconds and Victory after that... And way to fix that?
The second thing is: In Gem TD and Element TD the towers are painted(blue, black, etc...)from their original color. How can I do that?

 

[Aphurea]

How good are you exactly at triggering? Do you know JASS or are you only just getting into it?

 

[cleeezzz]

for previous post about colors, change the color values of Red Green Blue in the object editor, you can find RGB numbers on google search.

 

[WilliamPa]

Use the same victory and defeat as my map did? It checked the lives every time a mob went thru the maze. If lives were 0, it just defeated players ^^ Then i used the event "Player 12 food becomes equal to 0"(make sure all runners eat food ), Then it started leveluptimers etc... And checked if level is 35, if it was, it gives victory to all players. =)

 

[Zhirgoyt]

about the victory thing, you could just do like this. In the defeat trigger, have it do Turn off "Victory" trigger the first thing it does. That way it won't run at all. hope that helps

 

[FrozenShadow]

It could be an If-Then-Else Statement You Know

 

[Zhirgoyt]

hmm true, im just assuming it's not anyways let's drop it until we know

 

[Zhirgoyt]

BUMP! I'm still bored and looking for work
