Something I want to incorporate or make as a whole but how do you make cinematics in maps. Like in Saga of doodan, kill me or even when noobs attack where triggers make the unit move and theres text speech( in sync with real time). Any tutorials or guides on that. K thx bai.

make locations where you want to move the units, then use a trigger to move them + waits + display text...
just make sure you don't get wait blocks

:payne:

And if you want, for example, that a character says something ONLY when a player tuch him (maybe he's running off all the players because he's scared?), simply make a location center on that unit and detect each time if a player is in it, then, order it to stop and display the text you want! :D

Waits are your friend when making movie maps, just put waits in between anything you want to happen, then simply make the triggers for it, you'll want to have your text and your actions different, the text goes with the waits, actions should happen when a death count is at a certain amount, so you start with it at 0, and then you have your text, and then you set it to 1, and have a trigger that does the actions you want when the death count is set at one, to make sure certain actions aren't performed multiple times, since you need the text displays to be under each player.

Oh_Man -- NudeRaider
NudeRaider shouted: Oh_Man Artosis hasn't caught on how devastating the perfect focus fire is. With the mutas he was like "the Mutas always seem to have less hp than against a human". But he didn't notice that the flock he had selected always just had one muta that was hurt. Same with the wraiths here. He's talking about how valks+wraith is gonna destroy Pluto's valks, then 5s later he's dumbfounded the human player's air is just gone and he never figured out why. And for some reason didn't even think to go back and look at the battle.
yeh thts straight up cheating

NimoStar -- It can by playing the same map thousands of times. It is similar to AI speedrunning games
