Trigger gone mad.

04-27-2004, 01:29 AM

The idea is to have a cinematic where a unit walks to a region, then another, then another, then another, all in a path, until it reaches the 7th one, and where it really begins. When it reaches the 7th region, it starts walking back to the other regions in reverese order! This is the trigger so far.

Xinlitik	First of all, change it from map initialization to elapsed time-- 2 seconds. Map initialization is when the game is loading..

Then change that. You realize that a unit cant be ordered to move around when the game hasnt loaded yet, right? That unit hasnt even been created yet, as all the units are created during map initialization.

the only bad thing about that is, that would require turnig the trigger off and turning another on so it could go backwards.
