Plague Spreader Quest Problem

Pekisa7 · 2026-06-27T10:01:35+0100

Hello it's Pekisa7. I need the help with the plague spreader quest. I need when the plague spreader plagues the 3 towns standing on the first circle then the second and then the third and when the 3 timers expire you have completed the quest. I already created the circles and the plague animations and everything. And when you put the plague spreader on the first circle in the middel of the map and when the timer is finished the blight shows on the second circle and the circle dissapears. I don't know why is that. I just need help when those three timers expire you completed the quest. Can you guys help me with that? Best regards from Pekisa7. Here are also the triggers:

Hard to say about why the circle of power is disappearing because these triggers don't show anything about removing or killing a unit, if you show those triggers we can probably help.

As for these triggers, there is no event that causes the trigger "Plague Town Completed" to run, so after each timer expires I added the "run trigger action" and with your condition it will only run if all timers have expired.

I forget if it's a thing when you use GUI (I don't think you need to, but I'm unsure) you may want to set the Timers_Expired integer to 0 when you're initiating the quest.

First Timer
- Events
  - Time - PlagueTimer expires
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Trigger - Turn off First Timer <gen>
  - Set Timers_Expired = (Timers_Expired + 1)
  - Quest - Mark PlaugeTheTownQuestReq1 as Completed
  - Trigger - Run Plague The Town Completed <gen> (checking conditions)

Second Timer
- Events
  - Time - PlagueTimer02 expires
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Trigger - Turn off Second Timer <gen>
  - Set Timers_Expired = (Timers_Expired + 1)
  - Quest - Mark PlagueTheTownQuestReq2 as Completed
  - Trigger - Run Plague The Town Completed <gen> (checking conditions)

Third Timer
- Events
  - Time - PlagueTimer03 expires
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Trigger - Turn off Third Timer <gen>
  - Set Timers_Expired = (Timers_Expired + 1)
  - Quest - Mark PlaugeTheTownQuestReq3 as Completed
  - Trigger - Run Plague The Town Completed <gen> (checking conditions)

I also moved the quest updating actions because what you had before wouldn't run like you wanted. It would only have updated objectives when everything was completed, but not before, here is the new "completed" trigger:

Plague The Town Completed
- Events
- Conditions
  - Timers_Expired Equal to 3
- Actions
  - Trigger - Turn off Plague The Town Completed <gen>
  - Sound - Setup all volume channels for speech
  - Cinematic - Send transmission to (All players) from a Player 4 (Purple) Necromancer named Necromancer at (Player 4 (Purple) start location): Play The_dead_rise_like_an_unstoppable_tide <gen> and display The villages are pl.... Modify duration: Add 0.00 seconds and Wait
  - Wait (Length of The_dead_rise_like_an_unstoppable_tide <gen>) seconds
  - Sound - Reset all volume channels to 100%
  - Trigger - Run Plague The Town <gen> (checking conditions)
  - Comment: ^does the above action belong here? This looks like the trigger to start the quest..
  - Quest - Mark PlagueTheTownQuest as Completed
  - -------- Display a quest message --------
  - Quest - Display to (All players) the Quest Completed message: |cff808000OPTIONAL ...

I added a comment below a "run trigger action" that looked like it was in the errant "do all the quest stuff" block of actions, but I wasn't sure so i left it with a comment.
