Two Questions in One

[PiCkstix]

Ok what I would like to know is how to make a -random and -allrandom mode so that players DO NOT get the same heroes, like in DotA perhaps.

Here are my -random and -allrandom commands. For the -random players can have the same heroes and with -allrandom I think if it detects that it randomed a hero already picked, the player will not get a hero.

                        Set C = (C + 1)

For this I would also like to ask: can you increase a loop by adding to its value within the loop. eg in this case I used from 1 to C. If I used there "Set C = (C + 1)" is it actually working?

Thanks alot

I don't know the problem but I've noticed 1 thing:
why did you put the action set C = 1 under loop in the first trigger?
it will keep setting C to 1 and the action set C = (C + 1) will actually do nothing if you keep setting C to 1

place the action "set C = 1" before the loop

maybe I'm wrong but try it....

and no, its not working, otherwise it would be an infinite loop (if it works, it should crash your game)

btw isn't there already a tutorial for ar mode that could solve your problem with picking only 1 hero type per player?
