Entering a City

[Clawdruid]

Hi, i'm making an RPG and i want it so when ever you enter a town it will say "Now Entering - Little Town." Now what i have it as now is:

• Enter Town
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters Little Town Entrance Right <gen>
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (Player group((Owner of (Triggering unit)))) the text: Now Entering Little Town.

But that means that when people walk OUT, it still says entering...

But what i want to know is how to say that but only when they enter the town.

just disable the trigger after that

You can use the facing of the unit to determine whether the unit is going in or out.

Or you can use two regions that are place close to each other. If it first enters region 1 and then 2, the unit is going out for example. If 2 first and then 1, the unit is going in.

Make the rect cover the entire city. That way he won't leave the rect until he leaves the city.

Like Fingolfin said just make a region covering the whole city then make a trigger that shows the text when entering the city then make another trigger that displays another text when leaving the city.

^That will work, but if the city is shaped in such a way that it has to be covered with several regions, you still have to do some extra triggering. Not necessarily much though.

Here's the system I was talking about. I wanted to try to trigger it, and decided to post it since it might help. It's npt bug free though, teleporting will break it.

There are two enter/exit archways. You can enter from one and exit from the other and it will still work.

Well im going to have teleporting in my game, so if i did have to make several regions to cover my city, then how would i go about doing that?

Like this. I recommend you to overlay the regions with each other a bit, like in this test map. The area surrounded by rocks is the "city". You can test teleporting with Blink.
