Trigger w/o a condition?

I recently opened up zombie arcade( dl here http://www.staredit.net/?file=272 )

It wasn't working when I tried to play, and I assumed it was because I was playing single player so I decided to edit some of the triggers to get it to allow me to play sp. Anyway, #1 I really don't like how he labeled his locs and units but w/e. #2, I found out that some of the triggers are left without a condition. What exactly does that do?? Does it act like an "always" condition or "never" (<--- my best guesses)

Thanks.


ps I couldn't figure out how to make it sp(or if that's even the problem at all), so if someone else wants to make a copy for me and pm it to me I would appreciate it :)

Sleeping wolves wake hungry.

It makes the trigger fire constantly.

I found this out when I disabled all the conditions for a trigger that created and killed high templar. Much templar blood was spilled T_T

Difference is, I've had it happen.

FTS is just theorising.

It acts as an Always, since nothing returns false, triggers don't check for everything to return true, it checks for one thing to return false, that takes up less processing power.

Ok so has anyone taken a look at the map and figured out why it isn't working?? I can't figure it out...



None.

Are you playing it in Single Player, or playing it online but alone?



None.

Tried both. Still didn't work.

Change some of the human players into computers and see if it lets you play then.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?
[04:25 am]
Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings

Ultraviolet -- Yeah he's talked about a lot of that stuff in his casts before. It seems plausible. Especially knowing how Blizzard of yesteryear operated.

NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.

NudeRaider -- Contained nothing new for me. Didn't know all building's behavior, but very much all unit's. Also Terran balance whine - also nothing new :lol:
