[2017-4-24. : 4:01 pm] Mouse -- Yeah they all have start locations and everyone has unchecked random start locations boxes. How do I force it with triggers? There wasn't an option under the set alliance action.[2017-4-24. : 3:55 pm]  Zoan -- Just to be safe you could also uncheck the 'random start locations' box[2017-4-24. : 3:53 pm] Mouse -- Hey all, I've got a quick question if someone wouldn't mind helping me out. I'm having trouble getting the allies in my force to stay having shared vision for some reason. The check box is selected in the force section of scmdraft, but when the game starts nobody has shared vision.[2017-4-24. : 3:32 pm] Zoan -- When a location's timer pops, you would want to remove the P7 zergling, and to start a timer at a location then you would just create a zergling owned by P12 at that location,[2017-4-24. : 3:31 pm] Zoan -- Then whenever P7 brings a zergling to a location, that location's 'timer' has popped.[2017-4-24. : 3:30 pm] Zoan -- gives each zergling owned by P8 to P7, gives each zergling owned by P9 to P8, ..., gives each zergling owned by P12 to P11[2017-4-24. : 3:29 pm] Zoan -- Then a single DC timer, which when it hits 0 gets set to 12 and does the following:[2017-4-24. : 3:29 pm] Zoan -- Oh, here's another solution: you could have a burrowed unit at each location, e.g. a burrowed zergling at each location, all owned by P12[2017-4-24. : 3:25 pm] Zoan -- This method would probably require the least amount of triggers I think[2017-4-24. : 3:24 pm] Zoan -- You would probably want to use flying units so things don't get clogged, and you would want each unit+player combination to correspond to each different location[2017-4-24. : 3:23 pm] Zoan -- Another thing you can do is have a long strip along the top of the map, create a unit at one end and order to move to the other, and by the time it reaches the other end you know the timer has finished[2017-4-24. : 3:22 pm] Zoan -- though that would be sort of a pain to reference each slot (you would move the horizontal locations and then one of the vertical locations)[2017-4-24. : 3:21 pm] Zoan -- Also, if you want you could use a mobile grid in the corner with burning missile turrets[2017-4-24. : 3:20 pm] Zoan -- VetaVeta shouted: Ok, so you can use death counters for players that are not present. So I could use the same trick I used before, for the P9-12 DCs but with P1-8 and half as many counters Ya I was just about to say this[2017-4-24. : 2:45 pm] Veta -- Ok, so you can use death counters for players that are not present. So I could use the same trick I used before, for the P9-12 DCs but with P1-8 and half as many counters[2017-4-24. : 1:58 pm] Veta -- yes that's right, what about players that aren't present e.g. p7 is a human but didn't join[2017-4-24. : 1:42 pm] ViperSRT3g -- I thought using a Force applies actions to any or all of the players within that Force?[2017-4-24. : 11:24 am] ViperSRT3g -- Every time you type something in here, I'm imagining Morty saying whatever it is that you're saying. "Oh man Rick, P9-P12 don't have death counts."[2017-4-24. : 11:18 am] Oh_Man -- VetaVeta shouted: 200 unique locations that need independent timers. If you had a way of marking each city with a "type" of timer you could condense this to ~12 timers. But that would exponentially increase the number of triggers. I got the system working flawlessly with the Disabled Cloaked Burning Buildings method, but it's a bit of a kludge so I think I will bite the bullet and use a trigger preprocessor and P9-12 death counts. P9-P12 dont have death counts[2017-4-24. : 9:10 am] Veta -- 200 unique locations that need independent timers.

(although this up comes with a down attached: A blur filter) never had these problems in the first place  [2017-4-24. : 12:47 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Dem0nDem0n shouted: what do you think a patch is? Some optional thing? LMAO It is. 1.16.1 is still very playable[2017-4-24. : 12:47 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- LanthanideLanthanide shouted: presumably if you want to play v16.1 or older, yes there are very well-known ways to install without a valid key[2017-4-24. : 12:29 am] NudeRaider -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: already had acceptable solutions at least for myself ... which is true for anything that patch introduced.[2017-4-24. : 12:28 am] jjf28 -- NudeRaiderNudeRaider shouted: jjf28 forgot the most important one: No more color or aspect ratio problems. (although this up comes with a down attached: A blur filter) way down on my priority list tbh[2017-4-24. : 12:03 am] NudeRaider -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: Voyager7456 + observers, increased stability in some areas (rock sprites), somewhat of a built-in windows mode, perhaps most importantly: lotsa players hanging about forgot the most important one: No more color or aspect ratio problems. (although this up comes with a down attached: A blur filter)[2017-4-23. : 11:57 pm] ihjel -- Is anyone else having performance issue with the new patch? PTR ran smoothly but the release lags horribly.[2017-4-23. : 11:12 pm] Dem0n -- ZoanZoan shouted: I don't like playing a buggy shell of a game I used to really like Literally what do you expect? A good update? LMAO I'll just wait till they fix everything, if they ever do.[2017-4-23. : 10:39 pm] Zoan -- I don't like playing a buggy shell of a game I used to really like I'll just wait till they fix everything, if they ever do.[2017-4-23. : 9:37 pm] Voyager7456 -- People aren't like "aw sick, a new patch" - the upcoming remaster got them interested again and possibly more importantly the game was released for free[2017-4-23. : 9:34 pm] Voyager7456 -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: Voyager7456 + observers, increased stability in some areas (rock sprites), somewhat of a built-in windows mode, perhaps most importantly: lotsa players hanging about meh, meh, third-party ones already existed so who cares, not a feature of the patch[2017-4-23. : 9:29 pm] jjf28 -- there's ofc loss of some mapping features, poor channel to game-list transitions, game list refresh/selection bug, crashes for some very random actions (like adjusting computer brightness)[2017-4-23. : 9:27 pm] jjf28 -- Voyager7456Voyager7456 shouted: jjf28 it has ups? + observers, increased stability in some areas (rock sprites), somewhat of a built-in windows mode, perhaps most importantly: lotsa players hanging about[2017-4-23. : 9:25 pm] Voyager7456 -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: that's not controversial, everyone agrees spaces are better http://imgur.com/0J671[2017-4-23. : 9:23 pm] Voyager7456 -- jjf28jjf28 shouted: it's not here, all we have is a patch, which has its ups and downs it has ups?[2017-4-23. : 9:20 pm] theskinsurf -- oh_man, I believe the architect is protected? or are you referencing a different map I can open? |
