AI Players and Minimap

[OmniBugger]

1. How do I put in a Computer player that cannot be changed?(its race, team, colour and not able to open the slot) I have tried using Player Properties to put in a Computer player but the player never shows in-game.

2. How do I make the map unexplored(When I play the whole map has already been explored. I am able to see the terrain and stuff)

3. Lets say a unit manage to dodge an attack(missed). How do I make that unit(the one that managed to dodge) play a specific animation?

I hope someone can help

Well for #2, you probably put triggers like:

• Visibility - Disable black mask

and disable fog of war. delete those and it should be fine.

 

[OmniBugger]

No I did not put those. I also tried enabling those 2 but I still can see the whole map from the start. Can't see the units tho.

2/ Simple: Make a trigger like this one:

• BLACKKK
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Visibility - Enable fog of war

If this ain't work, then do this:

• BLACKKK
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Visibility - Create an initially Enabled visibility modifier for (Picked player) emitting Fog of war across (Playable map area))

1/ Under "Player Proprieties", add a "Computer" Controlled slot.

2/ Nope still doesn't work.
1/ I already said I tried putting in a Computer player through there and it doesn't show.

2/ than add a similar trigger with "Black Mask" instead of fog of war.

1/ Then add a new force, add your computer slots and, most importantly, check the "Fixed Player Settings"

 

[OmniBugger]

2/ I did that too. Still no.

1/ Tried that. Nope

 

[sadvisor]

2/ it works for me.
1/ this also works for me.

 

[OmniBugger]

1/ Ok I tested it on a new map. It works but on my current map it doesn't. Anything else that could be wrong?

2/ Doesn't work still...

 

[sadvisor]

1/ maybe you have a trigger that DISABLES fog of war(/black mask) and it runs after the trigger that ENABLES fog of war(/black mask)

 

[OmniBugger]

Nope. Try taking a look at this map and see what is the problem.

 

[sadvisor]

ok, i will

EDIT: i did. I don't understand why it isn't working. That`s strange.
