I’m trying to do a fan-made alternative story to "Orc Bonus Campaign" (I've used original OrcX maps as a starting point to save time), the map transition part seems to have a problem.
With the help of this tutorial, I changed Blizzard’s way of performing map transitions to tutorial’s one. Then I’ve inserted my map(s) to TransitionTutorial.w3n (transition campaign included in tutorial). I matched all map transition related triggers, variables, map regions in two of my inserted maps (named AR0100 and AR0101) for testing. While transition from the main (AR0100) map to additional (AR0101) map works as expected (transfers heroes, resources, etc), but when I try to go back to the main map, the triggers just don’t “fire”. The transfer tripwire region won’t fire (I’ve tried changing region, no help), but when instead of using my additional map (AR0101), I’ve used map that was originally there by tutorial, it started working as long as the path for Save/Load trigger (starting after "WarcraftIII\save\Profile1\CustomSaves", meaning CustomSaves\(name of campaign)\(map name)) is less then 43 characters.
To be exact, this is the problematic trigger, the Event just doesn't get registered.
I’ve included my campaign files, thanks.
TC.w3n - with 2 maps inserted.
TCE.w3n - only the main map inserted.
TCO.w3n - original tutorial campaign.
PS: Sorry for my grammar.
