Units placed in the map

[evjhen]

Hello. It's a simple question that I can't solve. The units must be placed during the creation of the map or created by triggers once It's started?

I literally don't get your question. What you mean "must be"?

Mm maybe I explain it the wrong way since my english is not good. The point is just to know what is better.
Should I put the units on the map right from the editor or should I use triggers that create units when the map is currently being played

Depends on the context, purporse, idea of what you want. It must be a concrete idea. No one can say whats the best way to put units in map if there is no purpose. It's something you have to learn and search it yourself.
Anyway what is your idea?

Doesn't really matter if you placed them first or using triggers.

In my RPG map most units placed first, then when there is a need to add new units like for dungeon or events they get added through triggers, so it is more of, if they need to be there from the start or just when needed to be there.

Depends on the map scale. For reasonably sized maps pre-placed is fine. If your map is 480x480 then spawning with triggers only when needed is recommended. Especially RPGs which might have thousands of pre-placed unit positions should only spawn them when players are near.

Additionally, preplacing units can contribute to loading time.

Thanks. My map is 480x480 so It is just to know what is better for performance terms. Thanks to all.
