Hey all, Just made another video tutorial that covers how to do a Day and night system based in the Data Editor. Hope you like it and i hope its useful!
(note for the first few to look at it, Youtube is still Processing it for full HD!)
"Quick tutorial to demonstrate a simple Day and Night system. The Video does not cover how to work with the time via triggers but i have included a trigger library as an example.
I call it the Stranded Clock, because its based off the map im working called Stranded For Days and uses a similar UI (aka the clock)
Anyways, Its pretty simple, uses the a day night system to dynamically reflect the "time" in the environment via lighting. Its just a map to look pretty and simple
Also bonus: only uses 1 trigger and 4 variables =D
Edit: you can see my clock in action in the firts minute or so of my latest tutorial that basically explains how i did this map
Nice work. I had been thinking about how to get an item shop working in my map, this pretty much solved it, and provided some laughs as well.
The one problem I have had, is my item shop is assigned to Player 0(neutral), and when I set a cost to buy items, they cannot be built because I am not allowed to spend another players resources(curse that greedy player 0). I will look for a solution later when I have time.
The only time ive seen that bug is when the shops is set for another player and not neutral, so double check that
also glad you had some laughs, i try to add humor to my stuff so its not boring
i decided to do a video tutorial just because iw anted to see how it went and it went pretty well, So expect more of these from me, Ill probably end up doing text based tutorials in the future to go along with my videos and maybe eventually making a recording of my Hero Tutorial too.
But enough of this, this Tutorial will Show you how to Buy and Sell thing just like WC3, its pretty cool and i accidentally found it, as i explain in the video
(Note if you go there right after i post this, youtube is still processing it for quality to soon it should be up in 720! just be patient!)
Id show how to do WC3 Ability emulation (Multiple levels of abilities and stuff) but you have to jump through so many hoops im putting it off for hopefully a simpler way in an editor update

It works, just dont ally your players with neutral players.
Go download the map i put in the description on the youtube page. works great.

Well it is neutral in the fact that its defaulted to neutral to all players, much like the watch towers =P
