Should this tut be made?

i have been seeing so many posts lately wondering on how to make trigger based spells have different functions based on thier level. also i have been seeing people asking how to do the learn hero skill for unit thing for a custom spell. because you can't do it unless the spell is a blizzard premade spell or you edit the pre made spell directly(not making a new custom spell based off it)
my question is this... would it help many people out there if i made this tut? and do you think this tut needs to be made?

if it was made, then it would really help beggining WErs. Since they usually have trouble with theyre first maps. So I would suppose that it would be neccecary.

I personally dont need this, mainly becausefor some reason i can see how i want something to work, and i make it work(I guess because i have a background in programming) well, it might help for those who were less fortanate then me, not being able to take programming in highschool with a teacher that actually knew how to make learning a good experience, and teach you how to think like a programmer. Go ahead and write the tutorial, i bet theres a few people out there who will use it.

Some basic teaching would be great, explaining what the different parts of triggers are, like Events, Conditions, Actions and Variables. Creating a trigger to do something specific that includes at least one of each of the above.

This would be awesome for intruducing people to the trigger system, making them explore more options in the future.

U go Supra! :)

i dont really think triggers can be taught, and you shouldnt go make a tut to explain 2 triggers, if you make it part of a bigger tut like spell editing or somehow make an all ruling trigger tut that would be ok :D

There is already a "tut" for all events, conditions, and actions. Look in the Trigger Repository.

Ive made a trigger mod which allows you to use strings instead of lists for actions. There is a convert order to string which i made so that you can use the lists or strings.

Its not completed yet so I wont post it.

i decided not to make this tut on the account of i don't think it will actually be used. but i have been coming up with some new ideas. here is the newest tut i jus tthought of.....

how to delete a post when you double post. should i make it? i think i should.... here it is....

step one- hit the edit button under the post you wish to delete

step two- check the box in the upper left hand of your screen that reads delete

step three- look over a little bit to where there is a button that says delete now. find it? good now push it. and your done. no more post to annoy the whole world.

also a note don't try to post and than delete to get points. it doesn't work. it didn't work with post count and still doesn't work with the point system. thank you. and have a good night.

no what he is saying is that he edited the txt documents and made a it easier to input things. it still works like a trigger. also it works in the object editor too. where usually there would be a dropdown menu there is now a blank spot so that you can type in a string.

oh... well i cant see how that would be useful to me, but i guess some newbis might find it handy, i dunno, some people would also find it very frustraiting (i know i would at times)
