There ^^

 

[Rikardo]

Wait is that 5.00 5 seconds or 5 minutes?

 

[PrisonLove]

5.00 is seconds, you cant enter a minutes field for time events so you should use 300.00 seconds.

5 X 60 = 300

[Rikardo]

yeah I know, i wrote that before but then you said something which i didnt understand but i hope it works now :] wrote it exactly like him
btw how do make that trigger thing? I can only copy the text, not a photo with the trigger

 

[PrisonLove]

you use tags. hit copy as text in the editor and then use the [trigger*]<your text>[/trigger*] tags

be sure to remove the * from the tags

is this trigger good for a initiliziation?

 

[SeRviLy]

looks like it. But i cant remember if Display Text triggers work at Initialization.

 

[Rikardo]

oh oki :] ill just try it then i guess
if you have time, could you show me how i make tips? i want to make 10 tips which pops up each 1 minute

 

[SeRviLy]

well this thread is getting off topic, but would the tips pop up in a certain order, or would they be random tips?

 

[PrisonLove]

you can just pick every player in all players and add gold to them ,its much shorter

 

[SeRviLy]

you can just pick every player in all players and add god to them ,its much shorter

True.

 

[Rikardo]

How ya mean prisonlove?
Btw servily it's in order yeah, like:
first minute comes this:
Tip 1: blabalblablablabla
second minute:
Tip 2: blablblablalbalblablalblablaaaaa
then after 10 minutes it resets

 

[SeRviLy]

well if it was me I would probably end up doing it like this:

• tips
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 60.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Tip 1
    • Wait 60.00 game-time seconds
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Tip 2
    • Wait 60.00 game-time seconds
    • Trigger - Run (This trigger) (ignoring conditions)

Another way anyone?

 

[Rikardo]

oh thats nice ill write it right away =) lucky theres nice ppl here, otherwise i wouldnt be able to make my map >_<

 

[PrisonLove]

as for your starting resources thing you can just do this

• starting resources
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Player - Add 1000 to (Picked player) Current gold

 

[Rikardo]

oh yeah that saves some memory so i can add some more models, thx didnt know it was able to do that, i should do it for -kick command aswell

 

[Alkonis]

Actually... Doing it the way PrisonLove suggested would leak, therefore costing memory. And models don't take memory, they take map size. As for tips, at the initialization, set up a string array variable to hold your tips, and every 60 seconds, display Tips[Random integer from 1 to max].

FYI, you posted this in the wrong section. This belongs in the Triggers & Scripts forum.

 

[PrisonLove]

yes my way will leak but since its done only once in the game, its negligible. you also cant destroy the force Every Player i dont think. ive tried and gotten a great deal of problems

and also he wants the tips in a particular order, not random.
and as for prisonlove's trigger couldn't you just do it this way:

• Start
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Player - Add 1000 to (Picked player) Current gold)

Yes.

Why would it be bad?

 

[Alkonis]

If you want in a particular order, just make an integer that increases by one every time the trigger fires. Every 60 seconds of game, display tips and set i = i + 1. It's silly to hardcode everything. Set up a system. It'll save time.

 

[Emm-A-]

You can Pick all Players from 1 to 12 in a Player loop, search in GUI, so u can write those lines more easily.
Like This:
Pick every Player in All Players and do
Actions:
Add 1000 to Picked Players Gold

Don't know if it saves time really, seeing as you still have to write out each hint to equal a variable, but it does make it more organized. I like it.

 

[Soga-]

It doesn't save time, it's just that you usually want to avoid hard-coding things when it's possible. This way, your code has a lot of flexibility and can be modified with ease.

 

[SeRviLy]

thats why i like it so much i gave rep for it heh.

 

[Alkonis]

Being able to modify it more easily saves time. Maybe that doesn't apply so much here, but it does apply elsewhere. I'd go ahead and get used to creating systems if I was you. An example:

In my current project, I add slight stat bonuses to every spell cast, and so I use texttags to show the total damage of spells. I don't write it out for each one, but, instead I use CreateSpellDamageTextTag(), a function I've written. It may be another function call, but it saves me writing it out for every spell. And, let's say I want to change the angle/size/color of the text, and maybe add an exclamation point (or four!!!!). Instead of digging through the JASS in about 50 spells and replacing every one, I just modify that one function. Sounds like a time-saver to me.

to bad the thread starter isn't reading anymore haha
