SC2Mapster

When I use the "Test Map" button/command in the editor, SC2 loads the map as expected, but many of the triggers do not activate. Some do, which is the confusing part.

If, however, I publish the map to battle.net then all of the triggers activate as expected.

Any idea why this is?

Are you using any Random Number generation?

When you test a map I think it defaults to a static number for random generations which you can change in the preferences.

Only thing I can think of off the top of my head why stuff would be failing.

Can we have some examples of the triggers?

@Dustin374: Go

No random number generation is involved, nor anything fancy really, just some rather standard triggers.

I'll provide screenshots as soon as I get back home to the editor, right now I can only type up some text.

I believe it may have something to do with teams though.

One of the triggers that does work is

• Event: any unit construction started
• Condition: unit type of triggering unit is (command center)
• Action: issue order to triggering progress unit (build - (halt))

One trigger that does not work is

• Event: any unit dies
• Condition: owner of (triggering unit) is on team 1
• Action: Add player 1 to player group (respawn queue)

I know that it is not even activating because the debug messages do not ever appear when I test the map locally, as opposed to publishing and testing online.

@scmapcritic: Go

The condition doesn't pass.

Team 1 refers to the teams that are set when players join the game lobby.
When you test locally Sc2 doesn't assign you a team, probably.

Ok, thanks.
