Staredit Network -> UMS Assistance -> Making Levels for 4 players

Report, edit, etc...Posted by Mostly-Harmless on 2005-09-20 at 22:05:22

I made a defense map with 4 separate players... I'm done with the terrain and the triggers but now I have to add the levels... is there any good way to add 20 levels worth of monsters very quickly or should I just hunker down some weekend and do it...?

Its A LOT of time to put in and I was wondering if there was some easier way before I started devoting all my tiem to creating the :censored:ing levels

for crappy ones, you can speed it through. for good maps, spend the weekend making it. the longer way's easier than screwing up 100 times trying to find the short way.

well it depends. if you want to make it so that if player 1 is not there then it doesn't spawn down player 1s lane then you have to make a seperate enemy spawn for each players lane and the trigger has to be under each player respectively (so player 1 spawn is a player 1 trigger ONLY). but i think you should do it over weekend. never take the ez way out unless it works perfectly for sure.

I was thinking he was having each player advance though there defence seperatly. If this is the case tell me cause there is not to hard way to do this and save alot of time.

Tou could make the levels the Players, and just give them to Player 12 and make Player 12 the enemy. Also you should look at other maps trigger, like Strip Defense, it has a nice way of sending 1 unit at a time for the enemy, but that is just my opinion, maybe you want to have 20 come out at a time, then you have to create the units, wait, then create them again.

Oooh man. Never insult a mod. It's bad for your Staredit health. I agree with Veritaserum and Wrathlord7, that was stupid. And by 4 seperate players, do you mean they all have their own lane, and when the enemy gets through them, they lose? Or are the people a team? Explain better so we can understand better.
