been playing with triggers for the past 4 hrs (jsut got wc3 and dived right intot he map editor to make my own campaign, the only reason i like these games.) but anyways i cant figure their triggers out. or i dont think i am... i might be but who knows. heres the questions. 1. how do you set victory conditions. (heres an example so jsut anser this and i can prob figure the others out from there so this is an easy one) ex. How do i set a victory conditon against 2 players 1 player 1 computer. the player has to destroy the computers certain structure. do i have to set it as a quest? and if so how? seeing thats really got me confused now. 2. and the other how do i set up a campaign? ex. link maps, etc... like in starcraft they had load map trigger if victory achieved etc. |

Guest | the best way to learn triggers is to look at the official campaign maps. Use a MPQ extract (found in our download section) to get the maps from the war3.mpq. basically for triggers you have 3 things: Event: when something happens Condition: the requirements for the action below Action: what do you want the trigger to do. For victory/defeat conditions such as the question you asked, you can do: event: unit dies condition: (triggering unit) = (the structure) action: game-victory for player 1(red) Look at the official campaigns to learn how to link maps. |
