Okay, I've been making a butt-load of maps lately, and Ive come across a nuisance to my progress.
ive had multiple wait triggers for completely different triggers going at the same time, and they add onto each other for some reason before they commence w/ either trigger

help = very much appreciated

Unless set for different players, wait triggers 'stack' up... try death counters (with hypers, 12.2 death increases per second on Fastest speed)

...and you call youself advanced

If you have too many wait triggers for a player, they will stack like Kow said.

Use death counters.
Do a half the trigger and then set the deaths to a certain number (12*X where X is the number of seconds you want it to wait)
Then have a trigger that constantly subtracts deaths, and then when the deaths reaches 0, do the next few actions of the trigger and repeat.

We have tutorials for everything!

aww man, ya'see, this is why I asked, I didn't want to have to fool w/ annoying hyper triggers and death counters, but, if it's for mapping.....


and YES DT_Battlekruser, i DO call myself advanced, because although some very few things that I do not understand, I can do plenty of fancy lil' things on my own thank you very much............ so please, don't critisize, it's a self-evaluation....

I suppose. And my name is Battlekruser with no capital 'K'. Its not a Battle Kruser. It's a battlecruiser spelled with a k and shunk to fit B.net character specifications. wink.gif

Actually, waits don't really stack as badly as you assume.

If you change the waits to smaller versions, the waits stack quicker and wait faster.

Ill post this in the concepts. and give link.

DTBattleKruser: Who cares?

And LordVodka: Waits don't really "add together" they delay one another. If you run two waits owned by the same player at the same time then the first one will fire normaly but the second must wait for the first to finish before it can exicute.
