Ok my last question for this map!!!

[Icey_Gregorio]

I told u it was a short map lol. The problem i got know is there are 4 differnet area's of 14 regions that spawn units. The problem is I need to make it where, every 10 secs a tank spawns in a random region on each of the four sides.

Meaning four differnet spawns every 10 secs and it most be a random region. And there is only one spawn on each side. Not where all four randoms could be on the same side.

So how do I do this random shit, I tried and I jsut got a headace now lol. And thanks a shit load for whoever cracks this for me.

One way is below. It is not elegant, but it works. There might be a better way. I only made it for four regions since I didn't want to type all morning; you will have to expand it to 14 regions. Also, change the event time to 10 seconds or whatever you want. I have attached the map so you can cut-and-paste these triggers. You also need to define the variables, of course -- see the attached map.

well . . thats the complicated way . . . ill post the simple way . . .make a trigger like below
Event - Every 9.99 seconds of the game
Action - Set varaible (need to make a var with the intiger type) the var u just made = Math - Random number between 1 and 12
now create another var
Event - Every 10 seconds of the game
Action - If/Then/Else - If: (last var u just made) = 1 Then: create one tank at center of (first region) Else: Do nothing.
then repeate the last action 12 times changeing the #1 with the next number.
Then you have one nice trig that spawn 1 unit every 10 seconds at a randome location. gl wit ur map ^_^

That might be too simple freeman - I don't think that will do exactly what he wants since he wants (as I understand) to create units in four areas having 12 regions in each area wherein 1 of the 12 regions in each area are selected at random. But, the basic idea remains the same - create a random number, use an If-Then-Else to create the unit based on the number.

Also, I don't understand why you used the first event every 9.99 seconds of game time to create the random number. Why can't the random number be generated in the event that creates the units every 10 seconds?

 

[FreeManKiller]

oh, he wants it to spawn if 4 areas? >_<
didnt no that

Ok thank you. I probarly should of metioned the have to go to the region straghit across from them but hey I can probarly do it myself I hope
