[Solved] For selecting alternate race ?

[PurrsandMlems]

I have the idea of a mod-map where there are the mainline stock factions and my own altered take on them, playable along each other side by side. The map would have a trigger setup so that you can pit vanilla humans versus custom humans, etc.
How i would like to imagine it would functions:
At game begin would get a simple dialogue box asking which version of your chosen at lobby faction you would like to play, with only two buttons clickable: Vanilla or Altered, which then replaces your starting units accordingly.
Since i havent really done like this before, besides copy pasting already made code would like to ask on how that can be done ?

you can ofc add more Races to this if you like

have finally gotten around to implementing this and, umm... where do i setup victory conditions ?

 

[polardude]

well it depends on what kind of map you are making.

if it is just a melee map you can use this and set in Melee Initialization

• Melee Game - Enforce victory/defeat conditions (for all players)

if it is more complex than you have to make your own win and lose event !
