Race Building Contest #3 - Mini Melee Race

VeljkoM · Oct 15, 2009

What if there are teams? One ally can protect workers of his ally. Also AI always replaces main base when his first one is destroyed.

But is there real need for victory trigger? Many maps don't use it and players can always leave at the end. Also this a contest so we could add it latter if we wish to release map.

Aspard · Oct 15, 2009

I'm pretty sure, the way we with xxdingo93xx did it, is beatiful enough to fit everybody, cause if you lose - you lose, but if you win, you can continue playing up to the moment you want to leave the game yourself: w/o annoying message about the victory congratulations and clicking the "Continue" button.

Do you think I'm fiend? I can't do that, they are just... workers, not even a footmen!

No I didn't just thought you were smart enough to do it

I know there is a mistake somewhere in this sentence, but I'll still ask this stupid question: Why do you think I'm not smart enough? ;D

Are you kidding? We are discussing the system I posted especially for Custom Races already for one page! Duh...

VeljkoM · Oct 16, 2009

Well for those ho have normal WE doesn't work. I have tried to implant the normal jass trigger posted by xxdingo93xx. It was activate but there were no effects on victory. Computer didn't have anything alive and I was still not able to win.

Aspard · Oct 16, 2009

But you can defeat - that's the main point for everybody.

Kercyn · Oct 16, 2009

I think this whole victory-defeat thing is absolutely pointless. The tester won't be stupid, he/she's gonna know when he/she's won and when the game is lost...

X-OMG-X · Oct 16, 2009

I agree with Kercyn. Win/Defeat isnt important. Its the race that is important.

The-Rave · Oct 16, 2009

my first Screenie!

at last, screenie!!
just on WIP, and i will change the models of some units..

you opinion-thief!!!

VeljkoM · Oct 16, 2009

So we all agree that "victory\defeat" trigger is obsolete. Case closed and xxdingo93xx wins the case.

Oh and you may want to add some bug models to your race or at least skins for the zerg units.

pippo · Oct 16, 2009

Add me to this contest...

I don't know if i will end the mini-race in time...

Anyway add me as Troll Race...

Good idea man!

Deolrin · Oct 16, 2009

Hmm. I have this win\defeat conditions trigger made by Michael Peppers over at WC3C for their race-building contests. I can post it here if it's fine from his side, but I'll have to get his permission first.

VeljkoM · Oct 16, 2009

Isn't he registered here also? I remember one guy with that name. He was in Race creators group.

Deolrin · Oct 16, 2009

Yeah, well, he quit the Hive.

VeljkoM · Oct 16, 2009

But he was logged in yesterday?

Michael Peppers · Oct 16, 2009

Hehe, I found a typo in one of my posts, so I had the urge to correct it ^^'

Anyway, the version of the trigger debode has works perfectly, but is a bit obsolete... (it has a pair of useless lines)
I made a JASS version of it some months ago, I'll post both JASS and GUI ones here ASAP.

Ah... and sorry if I'm not active anymore in the race creators group... I'm in a pause from modding, maybe permanently, maybe until tomorrow... who knows?

VeljkoM · Oct 16, 2009

Who can blame you. Group is dead without you and Wazzz. And thank you in advance for the triggers.

This sucks...

VeljkoM said:

No problem, they were made to be shared in these occasions.

Okay, here's the JASS trigger, it doesn't seem that I cleaned leaks, though, but I won't fix that. :razz:

(And I've never encountered any slowing down with this trigger running continuously, so if it leaks, it doesn't leak much anyway :xxd:

)

Also, don't blame me about the TriggerSleepAction(), because it doesn't affect gameplay so it's fine as it is.

To make it work, delete this line from the Init trigger:

Melee Game - Enforce victory/defeat conditions (for all players)

It IS plain JASS, so it can be compiled also by the normal WE, enjoy and give me credits.

JASS:

//by Michael Peppers

function filter_Structure takes nothing returns boolean
    return (IsUnitType(GetFilterUnit(), UNIT_TYPE_STRUCTURE) == true)
endfunction

function filter_PlayingPlayers takes nothing returns boolean
    return (GetPlayerSlotState(GetFilterPlayer()) == PLAYER_SLOT_STATE_PLAYING)
endfunction

function filter_EnemiesAlive takes nothing returns boolean
    return (IsPlayerEnemy(GetFilterPlayer(), GetEnumPlayer()) == true) and (GetPlayerSlotState(GetFilterPlayer()) == PLAYER_SLOT_STATE_PLAYING)
endfunction

function Trig_Victory_Defeat_Conditions takes nothing returns boolean
    return (GetPlayerSlotState(GetOwningPlayer(GetDyingUnit())) == PLAYER_SLOT_STATE_PLAYING) and (IsUnitGroupDeadBJ(GetUnitsOfPlayerMatching(GetOwningPlayer(GetDyingUnit()), Condition(function filter_Structure))) == true) and (GetOwningPlayer(GetDyingUnit()) != Player(PLAYER_NEUTRAL_AGGRESSIVE))
endfunction

function Trig_Victory_Defeat_VictoryLoop takes nothing returns nothing
    if (CountPlayersInForceBJ(GetPlayersMatching(Condition(function filter_EnemiesAlive))) == 0) then
        call CustomVictoryBJ(GetEnumPlayer(), true, true)
    endif
endfunction

function Trig_Victory_Defeat_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    call CustomDefeatBJ(GetOwningPlayer(GetDyingUnit()), "Defeat!")
    call DisplayTextToForce(GetPlayersByMapControl(MAP_CONTROL_USER), (GetPlayerName(GetOwningPlayer(GetDyingUnit())) + " has been defeated."))
    call TriggerSleepAction(2.00)
    call ForForce(GetPlayersMatching(Condition(function filter_PlayingPlayers)), function Trig_Victory_Defeat_VictoryLoop)
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Victory_Defeat takes nothing returns nothing
    set t = CreateTrigger()
    call TriggerRegisterAnyUnitEventBJ(t, EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_DEATH)
    call TriggerAddCondition(t, Condition(function Trig_Victory_Defeat_Conditions))
    call TriggerAddAction(t, function Trig_Victory_Defeat_Actions)
endfunction

I finally found the GUI one, but there's no purpose for using it, sincerely...

Victory Defeat
- Events
  - Unit - A unit dies
- Conditions
  - ((Owner of (Dying unit)) slot status) Equal to In Game
  - (All Units of (Units owned by (Owner of (Dying unit)) matching (((Matching Unit) is a building) Equal to True)) are dead) Equal to True
  - (Owner of (Dying unit)) different from Neutral-hostile
- Actions
  - Game - Defeat (Owner of (Dying unit)) with the message: Defeat!
  - Game - Display to (All players controlled by an User player) the text: ((Name of (Owner of (Dying unit))) + has been defeated.)
  - Wait 2.00 seconds
  - Player Group - Pick Every Player in (All Players matching (((Matching player) Slot status) Equal to In Game)) and do (Actions)
    - Loop - Actions
      - If (All Conditions are true) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        
        If - Conditions
        
        (Number of players in (All players Matching ((((Matching player) is an enemy of (Picked player)) Equal to True) and (((Matching Player) slot status) Equal to In Game)))) Equal to 0
        
        Then - Actions
        
        Game - Victory (Picked player) (Show dialogs, Show scores)
        
        Else - Actions

AIagremm · Oct 17, 2009

The story of trolls, who wanted to go dancing, but were hurt by the furbolgs, and now they have revenge... It shows their long way to victory and their cool dancing moves, like water dance and fury, and in the end the main character is kicked out of the team... =(

Attachments rule!

Wraithling · Oct 17, 2009

Probably one of my last WIPs. I'm happy to say that it is 95% done, and I'm at the stage where I would welcome play-testers, if of course, it is within the scope of rules.

My triggering isn't terrific. That's about as much tweaking as I can do :/

Have Fun with the competition guys!

Once again, I wish all of you - Best of Progress
