Triggering Revives

[flyeaf79]

Im kinda new to the whole Warcraft 3 editor thing and trigger making.

K so im making a map for me and my friends to enjoy and im making it up to like 10 players. im attempting to make an rpg inspired by twilights eve!
So i ran into one problem during the project i dont no how to make units(Heros) revive at certain points when they past by it. You no in Twilight eve how when you past an inn it said revival point save and the next time you die you respawn there, i really like that idea and wanna use it so can anyone help me out here ?

If i dont make sense sorry

Try doing this.

Create a region at each revival point.

Create a point array

When a unit enters the region, set point[player number] = center of entered region

when a unit dies

respawn the hero at point[player number]


Real easy

Sample only...needs to fix the regions you want...

This system does that. Press ESC to kill the hero. It will then revive at the last check point it visited. The check points are represented by fire columns in the test map.

All you need to do is to create the regions and set them to the region array. Then change the loop max value to the index of the last region. And then set the Player number condition to match the biggest player number you use for players.

Run the first trigger when all players have picked their heroes.

Umm maker but im also wondering how to make the time of death for multiple players up to 10.
i would also like to make a window for it to show a countdown.
can you show me a place on the sight where they possibly teach me all that or you can do it

Thanks

You can change the revive time with this line:

• Custom script: call TimerStart(t, 10, false, null)

Change the 10 to whatever value. You can use an equation also.
