well you can "implent" a trigger in a post by using [.trigger]"Copy as text" your trigger and then paste it here[/.trigger]
Note that the dots (.) should not include in the trigger tags.

i hope i did it right....

no you didnt use trigger tags at all

[.trigger]Yourcodepasted[/.trigger] But without the dots. ( the . is a dot)

[Eccho]

Well, I belive it is because first you are using an Integer A loop... And then uses an integer B loop... And then uses an integer B again!... And then Integer A again, and again!

You cant do that. It will overwrite the first created loops of the Integer A and B.
You can fix that by using "For each variable "integer_variable" ..." note that you can use the multiply times either in your way above...
Also, using waits within loops is considered bad. I don't exactly what you are trying to do with all those loops.

i was just fallowing the tutorial......it had the A/B thing 3 times......its supose to make 3 diffrent kinds of creeps apear in a selected area there supose to come in waves....

oh ok here......


(by the way its noon here)

 

[Eccho]

man dude... that is not the same thing you ahve been doing.

The problem with your trigger is, that you create the loops inside a loop, and then inside, and then inside......

create the loops after each other not in each other. Also do the same with the waits...

The code should basically be constructed in the following way:

-Loop1A
---Loop1B
---Wait
-Loop2A
---Loop2B
---Wait
-Loop3A
---Loop3B
---wait
