I'm finished with another Smal[SIZE=3
]l[/size]er EFH map, and i need some trigger reference, as im a noob in that field... I have 595 regions. I need it to where when a unit steps in one of those regions, the war stomp animation plays and they die. But I want to do it without putting 595 triggers in the game for each region.. is it possible to do it with 1 or maybe more triggers? I'd really appreciate some help. :////Thanks:////

You do know that you can have an number of events on a trigger, and ANY of them will set it off, correct...

Event - A unit enters region 0001
Event - A unit enters region 0002
Event - A unit enters region 0003

Action - Unit - Kill (entering unit)


If either of the events are triggered in game, then the action will play.

oh lol thanks man, now i might have a chance in the triggering world... But a question: Wouldnt that many events lag? (well im sure its not as much as the 6000 i had in my other map, but still...)

I suppose 600 of them wouldn't hurt . . . but geez, are you sure your placeing regions in an effecient manner?

Well i dunno.. I *think* so, I just always do terraining, and im not good at all at anything else ://// plus since all the Escape from Hell!!! and Gay Heaven maps are protected, i cant get trigger/region reference from that either. There isnt such thing as a map unprotector is there?8))

We don't talk about those here. If a map is protected, then it was meant for you not to look into it. Email an author of one of the maps and ask him NICELY if you could get a set of some of the triggers. I'm sure he wouldnt mind.

my AIM name is ****, I unprotect maps manually, i'll tell you my e-mail so you can e-mail me and I will unprotect it... I can unprotect any map with any protector (legacies, extprotect maps, heavylocker protect maps, etc...) [no offense to the creators of extprotect and heavylocker, they are much better then simple imported war3map.wtg protection, and make it much harder to edit, if they do unprotect it]

If the map can be played without an error, I can unprotect it without one also

edit: MSN name is ****

I could do it in seconds... takes about 40 seconds to unprotect any given map, and about 10 the easy way

bah ok :P do you have escape from gay heaven 1.3 to 2.2?

You could also a Loop and thus only using a few actions and 1 event to make it easy.

It's the "for each integer A between 1 and 10 do actions:
and then have all the regions stored in a rect Array.
