Staredit Network -> UMS Assistance -> Victory ends in Draw

Report, edit, etc...Posted by LegitXeris on 2005-01-05 at 12:38:48

I"m confused. My last trigger is

Players 1-6 (Human)
Condition
Player 7 (Computer Allied with Human) suffers 1 death of scv

action
play wav ______
end scenario in victory for current player

The condition is met, the wav is played, but game ends in draw..... I tried to play this in single player mode and it works perfectly, but on Battlenet, it ends in draw.... Please help, I spent an hour trying to figure this out and searching forums for this same problem.

Uh, the game didn't last more than 2 minutes?

It might think that current player is player 7. Try adding something else in the conditions like "current player commands at least 1 unit" or something else that will check for a current player.

.. I thought current player applied to the players that were selected before the conditions.

Besides, the wav playing is proof that it's on the right player.

Instead of current player use players 1-6(I believe that you put them in the same force).

Isn't current players the players who own the trigger?

I tried the trigger to be owned by

Players 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and I also tried trigger owned by

Force 1 (player 1, 2)
force 2 (player 3, 4)
force 3 (player 5, 6)

Really weird thing thing is that the trigger works fine in single player mode, but in battlenet, victory ends as a draw

Yup, I'm right then. You have to wait 2 minutes on battle net.

I'm sorry I don't understand what you mean? I have to wait 2 minutes ?? After completing the objective of the game, it ends in draw, what help would it do if I wait 2 minutes?

Can you explain your hypothesis

Games in Battle.net don't give you a victory if you win within the first 2 minutes. This was because in Melee, if someone really lagged and everyone left except for you, you wouldn't get a free win because everyone left within the first 2 minutes. So people couldn't just start the game then ally vic immediately to get a win, they had to wait 2 minutes. So you need to wait in the game for at least 2 minutes to get a "Victory"

PS: It's not a hypothesis v_v

Thx again legacyweapon. I used to play melee all the time and I understood the 2 min wait time for melee, but I never knew there was such a rule for Use Map Settings.

They shouldn't apply that sort of thing for UMS games. Reason they had that in the first place is so that in melee games, people couldn't just get free wins by ppl leaving right away.

Does it matter? You have no UMS "record". I've seen maps that say "GJ you won!" and then end in defeat.

I would, bolt, but blizzard is gay. They dont care about us starcraft people. I even asked em about why my internet connection was terrible and they're like "I dunno, go ask your local internet service provider." Omfg they're stupid and selfish retards. And they wont even make our friend lists bigger. I have like 50 ppl that befriended me and only half can be put on my list. And people keep pesturing me by saying "Dude mill, put me back on ur f list!"

Pfft mill would never remove me, WOULD YOU MILL???
is there a way to make a patch that lets you have moer than 25?

Im sure when the coded the function to ending a game they only did ONE function to make it a lot easier on them. Imagine having to code a different function for every different game mode in Starcraft. I think one would have been enough of a pain in the ass.

If the UMS game ends in under 2 minutes who cares whether you got a victory or not anyway. Most likely it was due to lack of players, someone droping, someone being gay, etc.
