Hi there.
So I'm using the switch hyper triggers:

Quote
Player '1'
)Switch 1 is cleared

)Wait 0 miliseconds
)Set Switch 1
)Preserve Trigger
Quote
Player '2'
)Switch 1 is set

)Wait 0 miliseconds
)Clear Switch 1
)Wait 0 miliseconds
)Preserve Trigger

That one.

Do you really need computer players for those triggers, or can you use human players?
Also, can you place those triggers for a single player, or does it have to be for two players?




None.

You can use it for any player. So long as first, if you are using humans that both players are needed to exist in the game, and second the players don't have any other triggers with detrimental wait actions.

It can be for a single player too. Having two different triggers for two different players doesn't make a difference.

So the Switch Hyper Triggers still cause wait blocks?
Also, the Wait Hyper Triggers cause 12 actions per second, is it the same for Switch Hypers? It seems as though Switch Hypers are noticeably slower.

Wait sorry, I am wrong about the second party. You do need an additional player.

This may help:
Quote from the SEN wiki on switch hypers
This method of hyper triggers does not have a NEO. It is not quite as simple, however, and it requires an additional player with no other wait triggers. This method will also never cause wait blocks. At the most this method will add a fifth of a second to the wait, although while the wait occurs the hyper triggers will turn off, this method also gives the ability to turn the hyper triggers on and off without having to wait for them to turn off.

The only reason it's better is that no matter where in the triggers it is, they will turn off on contact with another wait, therefore not causing wait blocks, you can get the same thing by moving normal hypertriggers to the bottom of the trigger list.

If you're already using All Players, why not just move them to the bottom of the list instead of using P8 too?

Ultraviolet -- just sent you a message on Discord. I suspect you're probably trying to change unit speeds for units that don't use flingy.dat for movement (like any units that walk instead of hovering/flying). You can change their movement to flingy, but they unfortunately look more like they're gliding than walking when you do that.

Symmetry -- EE2, I've been using setdatfile successfully for units.dat and weapons.dat but the flingy changes don't seem to happen
[05:25 pm]
Ultraviolet -- in EE2 you just open DatEdit, go to the flingy tab, and make whatever changes you want. Though if you want to do dynamic shit, you have to use the trigger editor with the setdatfile action. And of course you have to inject your changes when done. Can give more specific troubleshooting advice if you provide more details
