Skipping Triggers
I'm trying to make a briefing sort of thing, how do I allow the player to skip that trigger?
I have no idea what to put here... So I guess I'll just put this here.
Never played SC 2, but hopefully there's something to learn from the stuff below.
One way to do it would be to use death counts or another sort of individual counting trigger.
If current player brings 1 zergling to location "skip", set current player's deaths of Alan Turret to x.
This would make it so that when the player brings a Zergling to skip, it forces the death counter to the end of the breifing text, as long as you use Alan Turret to show different parts of the briefing, unlike scenario time or something. Even then, make it so that way if Alan Turret is at least 1, the breifing triggers don't turn on.
Unless this is an SC 2 thing... But then again, I'm pretty sure there's a way to make the above work as well.

The trigger action "Stop Trigger" allows you to kill running instances of the trigger. Just run that and any cleanup necessary.
To prevent the trigger from firing to begin with, you can use the "Turn On/Off Trigger" action to disable it.
SC2's trigger architecture is significantly different from SC1's; death counters are by and large useless outside of their semantic representation.

I do stuff and thingies... Try widening and reducing the number of small nooks and crannies to correct the problem.
You should be able to check out Blizzard's Left2Die map. Their map introduction is cancel-able, if all players press ESC.
:payne:

Mr.BurnLiquid -- SymmetrySymmetry shouted: Another map maker? Damn we really ARE back
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.[01:51 am]
Mr.BurnLiquid -- UltravioletUltraviolet 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 
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.[01:34 am]

Mr.BurnLiquidMr.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.[01:33 am]
