MiniGame Scripts

How does one do minigames in the middle of a td game? I know this is a really stupid question, but I am a total amateur at mapmaking and am trying to figure out some of these things. I understand how to begin a minigame, but not how to make a random selection of them, or how to stop everything outside the minigame...or anything else. I know people will call me an idiot, but I really could use some help.

this is wat i do.

i make a new action:the one with the multiple ifs and actiosn.

if:random number between say 1 and 10,is equal to 1, then (run minigame variation 1)

if number is equal to 2, then (run minigame varation 2)

To stop everything outside of the mini game pause all units, then create the ones needed for the mini game, if you have heros that are outside of the mini game to be in it, move them there and unpause that unit. To take care of eveything else it depends on how you have the rest of the game set, if you have it running with timmers pause them, you could also have it so everytime something trys to trigger you set a boolian or something that cheaks if a mini game is in progress. Once the mini game is over simpally unpause all units, and set everything else back to normal.

Thats a little too much of rambling, but i hope it helps.
