Every time I write my mission objectives in Starforge, and yes it IS rightly done, I would hit save, then go to double check it and it would all be gone.

All that would be left is:

MissionObjectives("",4);
Wait(1);

i dont know why ur map wont open in xtra editor that seems to me to be very odd.
xtreme editor is a mod of xtra editor its just got more thing to do and overall an improvement of the editor just google it if u want it bad enough because my link is no longer available.

Wait(1); will give you a wait of 1 millisecond, or .001 second. You probably want a much bigger number.

ok few things
1) the wait is just so the OBJECTIVES show up, and that the BREIFING comes up almost immideatly after, lol i capps it if u dont UNDERSTAND
2) when i try to open it in xtra editor: at first that thing popped up saying an error occured and asked me if i wanted to email Microsoft about it, but now that i try again, of course the sprites are gone, and all my units for players 9-17, and it says its not a valid starcraft file, even tho i saved it as StarEdit compatible in starforge

but i'll try xtreme editor, if the sprites and xtra players work on it...

have u tried extending the wait time from 1 too say 1000
or deleting the trigger and starting it from scratch?
when u do this, delete the trigger[briefing] save the map and exit the utility.
then reopen it and then redo the trigger

i dont think thats my problem ---
see i haven't even play tested it yet, its just when i finish writing it and hit save, then when i open the trigger again nothings there, like is there a maximum amount of Strings in starforge? if so how can i delete some?

PS okay

Report, edit, etc...Posted by micro119 on 2005-09-23 at 23:47:54
cannot do what?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Sniper on 2005-09-23 at 23:48:51
4 means "always display"

Check your string editor if you think your maxed out. It's under the same tab as triggers.

u cannot max the trigger, u can only max the amount one triggger holds

And what mission briefing are you wanting?
Briefing mission briefing or in game mission briefing.

If it's in game, and you have comments, mission briefings are affected by comments.
