Cinematic

[The guy who needs help]

im a noob at triggering i mean a COMPLETE noob! And i dont know how to make a cinematic start when a unit enters a region id this
Events
A unit enters region
Condition
Triggering unit equal to hero
Actions
Apply camera object 1 for player 1 red over 0.20 seconds
Turn cinematic mode on for all players
But.. When ANY unit enters region it keeps replaying the same cinematic Why is this happening?

 

[paskovich]

Because the event of the trigger is: Any unit enters <region>.

What do you expect from this trigger anyway??

There isn't any other trigger-event with a unit entering a region

You need to specify which type or specific unit you want by using conditions.

EX: Unit Type of Entering Unit is equal to <Unit Type>
Entering Unit is equal to <Unit>, etc.

You must specify a condition to initiate the sequence of actions. Your trigger does not HAVE to be started by the Unit - Unit Enters Region event; as an alternative you could use Unit - Unit Within Range and then set a condition referring to any destructible, point or unit.

Here's an example of a trigger I created for my own map. This trigger illustrates the use of a few of the many available cinematic elements.

• S002 Fisherwoman
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters 000 Allanon Start <gen>
  • Conditions
    • (Triggering unit) Equal to Druid of Paranor 0003 <gen>

    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Trigger - Turn off S002 Select Fisherwoman <gen>
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions

Just experiment with the many possibilities until you achieve the desired effect.

Yep

BTW, Cinematic and/or map based on Terry Brooks' Sword of Shannara series?
