Moved to Staredit General. Requests for help are taken seriously here, do not worry.
I'd be glad to help you, but you must specify what you need to know. Not just "teach me everything" xP

Briefings are hard for many people.
I'm not too bad with triggers. Well, I shouldn't be atleast. My maps almost always messup some way or another... \: xP
But I can still(probably) help plenty (:

Thx a lot. I just want to make maps that are decent. Rayne, Unknown_Being, Coko, Yoshi da Sniper, and Aster23 Thx for helping. Just to let you know i basically dont know anything about maps, didn't want to know, but I do want to know now since I am getting a new computer. Its dificult to specifically say what I need help on because I dont really know what to do. I have tried to make some maps, but they dont turn out good at all after.

My suggestion is to pick a map you like open it up and look at its design. Also take a look at the triggers and locations. It will give you a small idea on how much work is put into it and how some of it works together.

Well here at staredit.net we "AIM" help the helpless.
Terrian:
This is a hard thing to master, Even just for a melee map its hard to balance
But for a UMS-Use map settings, Your terrian has to suit your idea. But for you since your new at map making *are you?*
Make a few mess around terrian maps to grasp the idea, Dodad placing and stuff.
Very basic stuff, befor making the real thing
Triggers:
Let me walk you through a basic trigger, how to create a unit when a Players unit enters a Location.
Im sure you know how to get to the triggers menu, If not go to "Scenario" From the drop down menu go to Triggers, Short Cut "Ctrl+shift+T"
From there, blizzard has allready got 3 triggers. Unless your making a melee map remove them.
Now lets get started, Start by clicking "New" a new box appears, Click for any player you want the trigger to affect. Ill choose "player 1"
Click "Next" Now the box will change into a "Conditions" Click on "New" Another box will appear, From the drop down menu Look for "Bring" ShortCut "B" once you click on that this is what you should see:
Player brings quantity units to 'location'.
Change "Player" to Player 1
Change "Quantity" to What ever number you want. Ill chose 1. Allso change it if you want:
At least
At most
Exactly
Change "Units" to what ever unit you want in the game Ill choose the default unit, the marine.
Chnage "location" to any location you have placed on the map. ill make one called "Bring 1 unit"
Now after that it should look like this:
Player 1 brings 1 Terran Marine to 'Bring 1 unit'
Now once done click "Ok" then click "Next" then click "New" again
Now look from the drop down menu "Create Units" "Short Cut C"
once done you should see:
Create quantity unit at 'location' for player.
Change "quantity" to what ever yo want.
Change "Unit" to what ever you want
Change "location" to what ever Location this unit will appear
Now after that it should look like this:
Create 1 Terran Marine at 'Create marine' for Player 1.
Click "ok" then finish thats how easy it is to trigger some thing.
Lol i make it sound so easy or complexe or nither.
