Actually I had posted a similar trigger before during ROC time, but with TFT now I did some modification and post it out again! As you can see, 95% of the maps out there use the same method to choose hero: to move the wisp/peasant to the circle....... Therefore, I developed this double click method so that you can have a different choice. Basically, single click the hero to show the description; double click to choose him! So simple. It advantages over the traditional wisp/peasant method: 1. much faster! With the traditional method, you teammates may have died once or twice already when you are selecting some "farther" heroes in a hero arena with 40+ heroes..... No such problem with the double click system. 2. least work is needed. No matter your map has 5 to 50 heroes to select, you ONLY need 2 triggers + 2 regions! With the traditional method, well, I don't need to tell you....... 3. you only need less than half of the area as with the traditional method, as there is no wisp/peasant/COP. 4. some beta version of hero arena may have bugs that gave players wrong heroes due to wrong region setting. No such problem with my double click method. The only drawback is that the triggering logic of this method is a bit complicated, so not every mappers would like to try it. So if you want to use it but find problem to add it into your map, tell me and I will help! Hope this will be useful to you. Thanks! |

Thx! One amendment: in multiplayer game if the connection is poor with a lot of lagging, there maybe chance that a player may get 2 heroes by clicking repeatedly. So please change the line "create a unit for player x" to "if unit owned by player x is empty then create a unit for player x". This will probably make sure each player can only have one unit no matter how laggy the network is. |
