I am making a map and need some help with the following stuff:

*Some heroes don't go past level 5

*When a hero kills a hero higher than level 10 they will automaticly go to lvl 20 (highest)

*How do you make a custom loading screen, where could i get one or how do i make one.

*creeps get summoned to fight for your team but sometimes they hit neutral creeps, i have made the creeps unable to hit the creeps that get summoned but how can i do it the other way round?

*A better dueling trigger than the one that i have right now. So far it doesn't work if the game doesn't have max players. i am using one that just stops the duels after everyone has gone once.

*A way that when someone types help it only comes up on his screen

If you could help it would be really appreciated.
 
1: Loading Screen: Well, you can make one yourself, or get an image off the internet. Convert the size to 512 x 512 and convert the file into .mdx.

2: Neutral Monsters: Well, if I've got what you said right, then all you have to do is under the unit that is attacking, in the object editor, in what it can attack, take off neutral.

3: Duel Trigger: Well, try something around this:

Events:
Timer 1 expires.

Conditions:
And, Then, Else:
And:
Player 1 equal to "is playing"
Player 2 equal to "is playing"
Then:
Unit - Move all of Player 1 units to region
Unit - Move all of Player 2 units to region
Else:
Here you will have a substitute (player 1, 3, 2, 3, etc.)

Then repeat switching places around.

4: I'll put this in the next post as I forgot what it was.
 
Oh yes. Btw, up there that was estimate, I didn't actually test. Send me a PM if you actually want the full trigger. Same here.

4: Help Trigger:
Events:
Player (or string) - A player types an exact string your string

Conditions:
None

Events:
Game (I think) - Show text message for player entering string.

Again, PM me if needed. This is only an estimate.

Well i dont know an util that can convert .tga or .blp into .mdx
 
*Some heroes don't go past level 5
the problem might be if you using creeps as the enemy units, go to Advanced -> Gameplay Constants
Go down till you reach "Hero XP Gained - Creep Reduction Table"
remove all values there and add one value of 100.
*How do you make a custom loading screen, where could i get one or how do i make one.
you need an image with resolution 1024x768
it can be quite hard without automated programs i suggest use WE Unlimited.
*A better dueling trigger than the one that i have right now. So far it doesn't work if the game doesn't have max players. i am using one that just stops the duels after everyone has gone once.
pick a random player from all players that match the condition "Is playing equal to true".
