if i dont put preserve trigger on a trigger, does it mean it cant be used ever again?

ex:
Conditions: bring at least 1 unit belonging to player A to B
Actions: set switch1
preserve trigger

Conditions: switch1 is set
Actions: wait 1000 milliseconds

can the second trigger be used again without preserve trigger

Well if you don't put preserve trigger on the bottom of your trigger list, then no the trigger will not ever activate again.

You would have to have another seperate trigger to clear the switch1, really clearing it means to reset the whole switch.

the answer to your question is yes.. It need to be preserved or it won't work again and again. It may work acouple times.. but it won't do what you want. Preserving is not a big deal. Immagine if there is a trigger you want to be reapted over and over. Preserve it. Common sense. Well gl with w/e you doing tongue.gif.

An unpreserved trigger will run once and never again. However, it will keep checking its conditions until it fires. But, it will never run again.

Note that your second trigger won't have any effect on the game at all, even when it does run (except possibly to cause a 'wait block'...)

I think he was just showing an example of his trigger set up, if not that trigger would not make any sense.
