its starforge, not starfore, but watever.

http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopi...85&st=0#topic62

if that doesnt make sense do this:

open a blank map in xtra
create a simple trigger
i.e.:
elapsed time is X seconds
---
create unit: 1 zergling at anywhere, for player 1
preservetrigger
comment -- sf triggers

then save map, and open in starforge. look at how the trigger was made in starforge and compare between the too editors. thats how i learned. now, looking back, the tutorial was very helpful. didnt make much sense until i figgured them out on my own.

sf triggering is the best

Here is an example on SF triggers.

Contitions

Bring(P1, atleast, 1, Marine, Location X);

Actions

KillUnitsAt(P1, 1 ,Marine, Location X);
PreserveTrigger();
Comment("Drink BeeR");

This is a simple SF Trigger. You have to write the whole trigger yourself.

Honsetly, this is in enough excruciating detail it would be hard to make it seem at all simpler.

I don't know why people keep saying that SCXE trigger are better than SF.
I would recomend to anyone to use SF triggers because they are easier and faster to mass produce once you gettha hang of it.

BTW: Heimdal or Jonnywhatever, how did you come up on writting the triggers in that way, did you make it like a computer language or something?

How else could he do without programming? Something like working out what events and procedures/functions work when the triggers are used in Starcraft and create the system for his own and allow input.

I'd still prefer a PURE text based trigger system.

I think he means how you wrote them for the program to work itself.

No I meant like on what program are they based on? Php, C++, html?

Report, edit, etc...Posted by JonnyOThan on 2004-11-20 at 12:26:08

Some of phpp, And C++.

JonnyOThan is NOT heimdal.

He is nothing like him, and I know far more about Starforge than he ever will.

PS. for your information Starforge was created primarly in Visual Basic. phpp isn't even a lauguage, your refering to PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) witch is a web lauguage, like HTML is.

Starforges trigger syntax was created to make typing out triggers quicker, because it allows you to leave out extra words and type less. Its pretty simple its just the name of the trigger and then all the editable feilds one after another.

They don't know heimdal like I do, trust me he isn't Heimdal, he isn't even correct. I spent the time to read all of his post and most of them say things that heimdal wouldn't be saying.

Besides heimdal has 17 post and 0.1 posts per day. (doesn't get any less). This guy has 32 post and 30.9 post per day. Odd? yes do you think heimdal would out of the blue post twice as much in one day than he did in about 7 months?

New IP, also odd.

There are so many things that scream out to me that he isn't Heimdal, for an example every post in this thread. I have talked to heimdal alot, this guy doesn't sound like him at all.

Actually, what you are saying seems to be true. Notice how Heimdal's grammar is perfect when he posted. He doesn't even edit it...
Now notice JonnyOThan's.

And see how Heimdal posted today in the morning?
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopi...ndpost&p=101267
Didn't Jonny join last night?
How does Heimdal get his account back when he said he lost his password yesterday eh?
Clearly this Jonny person is a fake.

Not to mention Heimdal has a life and JonnyOthan wants to be a mod at every board at advertising.

I never believed he was Heimdal, he seems way different.
And, though I didn't see many of Heimdal's post, he didn't seem like the kind of person who would say "I'm Heimdal, I' made starforge, believe me now, it's true, it's true, no matter what."

And also, not only were those pictures of really crappy quality, but A) is it just me, or did the 'o's in 'loop' looked

ED UP, as though someone did a crappy job of trying to custom pixelize them
and
B) the only difference between that and the current SF, is that there were more colors, it had the loop option, it hadthe tool box, and it had colored tags?
