k i was making a new bound and when i set the triggers for the first obstacle it goes like [1][2][1[2][1][2][1] kinda i think.and then triggers are set up correctly but instead of all the 1'ns going off at the same time 1 goes then 1 sec later then other 2/3/4 go off and it gets all messed up, heres the triggers


Trigger
Players

  • player 8
  • Conditions

  • Bounders brings x to x location
  • Elasped game time is 1000 miliseconds
  • Actions

  • Set Switch 1

  • Trigger
    Players

  • player 8
  • Conditions

  • Switch 1=Set
  • Actions

  • Create 1 x (unit) at x (location) for player 8
  • Kill all units for Any Player at x location
  • Wait 1000 miliseconds

  • ad theres a couple of those but with different locations but not all of them are going off at the same time.are these wait blocks or?
    o yea and i have 3 hyper triggers after those for the same player(s).

    You can only run one wait at a time for per player, I would switch to death counts if you need to do something like this.



    None.

    so i could run x waits for player 8 but not for anyone else while player 8 is "waiting" otherwise it will get block becuase of HT's?

    A wait blocks prevents a trigger from continuing for a long time. It is caused by 2 waits running the same time for the same player.
    That means when P1 and P2 each run a wait it will work fine. And when P8 runs 2 waits all other Players triggers will work fine too but the respective triggers of P8 are not working anymore.

    Usually you should place all actions of 1 obstacle into 1 trigger. This way you make sure there are not running 2 waits the same time. If 64 actions is not enough you will have to use a switch which is set in the end and triggers the follow up trigger which should be ordered right below the 1st. Clear the switch at the end of the 2nd trigger.

    For marking which obstacle is active you should use a death counter which is incremented by 1 after each obstacle. Its not a mistake using switches, but death counters are more effective.

    so its like the opposite of what i just said? also if i put the whole obstacle into on Trigger wouldent it be delayed by a few miliseconds?
    well im just gna look at other bounds for now to see how they work

    No, there's no delay. There's only the delay you set by waits.

    just create/kill all of them in the same trigger... why use more than one?

    e.g.

    create obs at x1
    create obs at x2
    create obs at x3
    create obs at x4
    kill all obs



    None.

    Oh_Man -- tthen u come to SCBW and it's like - upload WAV, play WAV.... sigh why cant it be that easy
    [2026-7-23. : 1:40 am]
    Oh_Man -- and no consistent easy to use way to then play the audio either
    [2026-7-23. : 1:39 am]
    Oh_Man -- where they use third party audioprogram called WWISE which basically makes adding audio extremely difficult

    Oh_Man -- i appreciate SCBW's ability to just let us upload and play WAVs so much compared to nightmare that is total war warhammer 3

    NudeRaider -- EUD actions, specifically. The conditions remained. Today we can even have actions again, but they're all virtualized/whitelisted (not sure on the actual technical implementation) so you can only use them for specific intended purposed, not arbitrary code injections.
