Hello everyone, im in need of some desperate help... I just got SCXE and need help opening this map. Im making a bound, and cant open it with SCXE! I really dont know how to use SCXE, so help would be appreciated =) Thanks in advance...
ADDITION:
Wait... sorry guys that should be Starforge. I need help making starforge triggers... not with mapmaking... I do not know how to make triggers in Starforge... Its not like the campaign editors triggering system. You have to type it out for the triggers? Man thats gay... Well PLEASE help...
Here is the only Starforge triggers Tutorial out there.
http://www.staredit.net/index.php?showtopic=9981You will eventually get the hang of SF Triggers by practice and actually trying to learn how they work.
You can choose actions and conditions from the box in the right area. Top text box is for conditions and bottom text box is for actions. Above the condition box is a small place which will tell you what to put in each condition//action.
You could always check the 'help' feature in starforge... that's what i did and i figured it out...
Don't forget that there is autocomplete which makes triggering much faster for Starforge than SCXE.
Yeah so you can start to type in S (for unit) and press comma and it will put SCV automatically.
The system is called syntax btw. And i actually figured out how to use it on my own without help simply by choosing a condition down the list. Then, you press '(' and above the conditions it shows what must be put. For instance if you want to use the condition Bring, it would look like this...
Bring(Player,Comparison,Number,Unit,Location);
and you simply fill in the slots like this:
Bring(P1,Exactly,1,SCV,Location 01);
For conditions/actions such as always and preserve trigger where you have no specifications recquired you simply put:
Always();
PreserveTrigger();
Finally, for inserting text as in display text message or comment, then you must put quotes around the words you would like to say. I.E.
DisplayTextMessage("This is how you do it.",4);
*The four is the same as checking always display in regular staredit style.
Or use SCMD and be done with it.
It seems to me as if he doesn't want to. It wouldn't hurt to learn anyways. I think its a good idea to learn the syntax method expecially if you ever want a career in computers. Real life (computers) just doesn't have nice lists to choose from.
