Prevent playing "Single Player" mode, but allow solo LAN play.

So, this code is very simple and I did not invent it, but it seems that not many RPG makers know how to do it, so here it is.

  call Cheat("greedisgood 1000000")
    call TriggerSleepAction(0.01)
    if ( GetPlayerState(GetLocalPlayer(), PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD ) == 1000000 ) then
        call CustomDefeatBJ( GetLocalPlayer(), "No Single-Player-Mode!" )
    endif

And a short tutorial for GUI-ers:

1. Make a new Trigger
2. Add Melee Initialization event
3. Go to Edit -> Convert to Custom Text
4. You'll see a function like this, at the very top of the code.

function Trig__TRIGGERNAME__Actions takes nothing returns nothing
endfunction

5. Copy paste the above code between the 2 lines, like so.

function Trig_TRIGGERNAME_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    call Cheat("greedisgood 1000000")
    call TriggerSleepAction(0.01)
    if ( GetPlayerState(GetLocalPlayer(), PLAYER_STATE_RESOURCE_GOLD ) == 1000000 ) then
        call CustomDefeatBJ( GetLocalPlayer(), "No Single-Player-Mode!" )
    endif
endfunction

And you're done.
Obviously this assumes that you don't start out any player with 1 million gold.

You can use this:

function IsGameOnline takes nothing returns boolean
       return not ReloadGameCachesFromDisk()
    endfunction

You are doing extra work anyway, you can just use this:

• Events
  • Map initialization
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Custom script: call Cheat("SomebodySetUpUsTheBomb")

Haha, that's a great way of doing it actually. Both of those are better, thanks!
