Several Questions

[PalidinMaster3]

1) When I add a special effect it adds it, but it goes away, what did I do wrong?
Special Effect - Create a special effect at (Center of Region 025 <gen>) using Abilities\Spells\Human\MassTeleport\MassTeleportCaster.mdl


2) Then theres another problem with the animations I try to do animations it does it then it stops
Animation - Play Unit_Prop[1]'s channel animation


3) Also I'm what is the For each (Integer A) from 1 to 10, do (Do nothing) action do? I never really figured that out...


4) Also problem with this trigger, It doesn't do anything after the Player Group - Pick every player in Player Group - Player 1 (Red) and do (Actions), I realize that it says player red on them, but I tried to change that to see if it would work. I tried this too Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
It didn't work. Can anyone help me?

Here is the answer to 1, 2, and 3.
------------------------------------------------------
1. Some special effects without a wait animation vanish after they finish playing their animation for example NEdeath.
------------------------------------------------------
2. It seams that if you order it to do the animation on map initilsation it loops it but im still researching into how to controle when it loops.
It could also be that only certain animations can be looped.
I recomend you uses trigers to get around this.

Heres the vague idea and I am writing this out of my head.

Event
Periodic time every 2 seconds
Condition
Action
Play animation work for unit (THEUNIT)
------------------------------------------------------
Loop intergras are used to save work in setting multibords, Used to set aray variables, used to loop things in trigers perodicly, used to detect when an action has been run enough, and LOTS of other things.
I recomend you play with them and get to know how to uses them.

They work by looping the folowing actions # many times.
To Refer what loop number your on uses (for loop intergra (A or B))
lets say you order it to start loop on number 20 and end at 30, it will loop 10 times but the numbers you will detect threw the (for loop intergra (A or B)) will be 20,21,22,23,extra
------------------------------------------------------
