If you wanna make a list of several general trigger questions, I'd think about making a simple tutorial/map file on such things.
Leaderboards basically fall under dialogs which there are already tutorials on. There are unit order tutorials too (it's basically just using the issue order action). For switch randomization you can see blizzard map examples. You just put the function random number in the main thing of the switch, then your cases are numbers.
Maybe I wasn't completely clear. I was think for the sake of trigger noobs, some people can help them make simple maps faster and easier.
I am hoping that whoever finds this thread later on will pick up on this and make own maps without going back and forth and finding tutorials or looking into blizzard maps (lot of time consumption). I personally won't be able to play/map for a long time because of graduate studies but I would like to see vibrant custom games community. After all its more fun than ladders imo. If only theres easier way for modders to make maps...
You know how in scm draft (BW) triggers, you had drop down list of CONDITIONS and ACTIONS triggers. If someone can make template triggers for each of those conditions/actions triggers that would be great contributions. After all not everyone is familiar with coding jargon,
some people need dumbed-down version of trigger that would be great.
Many people, including myself, struggle to master Galaxy editor. But as you know from
BW and WC, fun games don't always need complex triggers. I was wondering if any one of
you generous people could make trigger map with template triggers so even noobs can use it to make their own maps.
For instance, map with all trigger options found in Brood War SCM Draft editor.
Like trigger for leaderboard, trigger for giving units order, trigger for randomization/switches, etc.
A separate, simplified Galaxy 3rd party editor would be awesome but perhaps thats too much to ask
I just uploaded my map project for Changeling Nightmare.
But somehow I cant make my map images to show up! How would I show screenshots in my map project?

I was wondering if it was possible to customize cliffs so that I could make 0.25-0.5 size cliffs. What would I need to do to make a cliff like that?
