For some reason, the game will not move on to the following actions after the first one in this trigger:

  • Movie1
    • Events
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Unit Group - Pick every unit in CinemaPeople and do (Actions)

          • Camera - Shake the camera for (Owner of (Picked unit)) with magnitude 2.00
          • Wait 5.00 seconds
          • Set MovieLoc = (Target of Movie4 <gen>)
          • Sound - Play RiflemanAttack1 <gen> at 100.00% volume, located at MovieLoc with Z offset 0.00
          • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_MovieLoc)

          • Camera - Apply Movie2 <gen> for Player 1 (Red) over 0.40 seconds

          • Animation - Play Child 0023 <gen>'s death animation
          • Set MovieLoc = (Target of Movie6 <gen>)
          • Wait 1.50 seconds
          • Sound - Play RiflemanAttack1 <gen> at 100.00% volume, located at MovieLoc with Z offset 0.00

          • Animation - Play Child (2) 0160 <gen>'s death animation
          • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_MovieLoc)
          • Cinematic - Turn cinematic mode Off for (All players)
The very first action is working as it should, but it will not move on to the following ones. Why ?
I've tried to use both real time and game time seconds.

Thank you,

~Operator

Wouldn't it be possible to add it in a playergroup and do the same?

The only thing I can come up with now.

Nope.
Would take me ages to explain, but bottom line is that it has to remain a unitgroup.
Thank you for your time though :)

EDIT:
Sorry, I didn't get what you where saying at first. But when I did change it to operate with a playergroup, it didn't work either.

The problem is that it loops though them via a callback, waiting breaks the thread.
What you are after is threading it (or as close to WC3 lets you) or looping though each player for each action at a time and having the waits outside the loop (I would recomend this).
