The use of GetLocalPlayer to run a trigger once for the non local?

[Boar]

Alrighty, At the moment I have an integer for the players number that the timer is ending for.

And seeing as its a timer, the GetLocalPlayer would not work. And So, Im wondering is there a way for GLP to work for the destinated player integer?



Also, I wish to have it run for a player group, so that it does not end the mask for everyone else when they run the preliminary trigger, should it look like this:

• Player Group - Add owner of triggering unit to TempForce
• Set AlphaReal = 100
• Custom Script: if (IsPlayerInForce(GetLocalPlayer(), udg_TempForce))
• Set AlphaReal = 0
• Custom Script: Endif
• Environment - set fog with colors (AlphaReal) (AlphaReal (AlphaReal)

I'm not sure what your question is. Are you trying to show fog for one player? Or a fade filter?

Fog for one player, But in order to remove the fog, I have used a timer.


And I am wondering if it is possible to change the fog for only one player once said timer finishes.

Yes ofcourse it is, just compare filter for GetLocalPlayer() == WhichPlayer.

Mm okay, I assumed that because it was a timer, getlocalplayer wouldnt work because technically a player isnt running it

Some player has to run every code, or nothing happens.

GetLocalPlayer() can be used for anything, the only thing to watch out for when using it is for de-synchs. Starting a timer does not cause a de-synch if done locally, however creating one locally does. The comparison GetLocalPlayer() != null will perform the actions for every player, but each player will think he's the only player who executed the actions.
