Fyi - the Wiki is absolute garbage. Take a look for yourself. This is what I currently have. The 10 seconds have passed message spams instead of waiting 10 seconds. Any idea?

Trigger("Player 1"){
Conditions:
Deaths("Player 1", "Alan Turret", Exactly, 0);

Actions:
Set Deaths("Player 1", "Alan Turret", Set To, 120);
Preserve Trigger();
Comment("Set Alan Turret - Death Counter 120 secs - 10 secs");
}

//-----------------------------------------------------------------//

Trigger("Player 1"){
Conditions:
Deaths("Player 1", "Alan Turret", At least, 1);

Actions:
Set Deaths("Player 12", "Alan Turret", Subtract, 1);
Preserve Trigger();
Comment("Subtract 1 Alan Turret - Death Counter 120 secs - 10 secs");
}

//-----------------------------------------------------------------//

Trigger("Current Player"){
Conditions:
Deaths("Player 1", "Alan Turret", Exactly, 0);

Man why is that so hard to find. I'm honestly not sure why it's spamming if it isn't being decreased in the first place though... Are you perhaps not playing as player 1 while there isn't a player 1 in the game? In that case the player 1 triggers will never run because a player doesn't own them.

Roy's Secret Service

Besides the mistake spotted by Swampfox, I think the reason why it's spamming the text message is because the trigger is owned by "current player" instead of player 1? Also you could simply display text message in the first trigger when you set the deaths back to 120, instead of having the 3rd trigger, which is unnecessary.

Set Deaths("Player 12", "Alan Turret", Subtract, 1);

You're subtracting 1 from player 12's deaths instead of player 1's death. Maybe try using "current player" more and have the owner be player 1 or all players?

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:

Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

Mr.BurnLiquid shouted: Ultraviolet Thanks; I'm new to the site and a Spanish speaker. I must have missed the part where it was prohibited—I'll change it now.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
