I have just reasently started messing around with the editor. And I am now working on a maul type map. And I cant figure out how to not start spawning for player X if that player isn't playing. So for example if we are 3players playing and there are 4 different spawns. I don't want annything to spawn in the spawningarea for player 4. But I still want to have the spawning for player 1-3.

I searched the forum for a topic regarding this matter but couldn't find anything.

Sorry for the bad english.... best regards nookan

@nookan: Go

there are player conditions, one of them is player is playing

@nookan: Go

I might add that you are quite lucky to have b0ne123 respond to your post, Also he is dead correct.

something like this

Spawning trigger
Events
Timer - Every 5.0 seconds of Game Time
Local Variables
Conditions
Actions
Player Group - Pick each player in (Active Players) and do (Actions)
Actions
Unit - Create 1 Unit for player X at Point using default facing (No Options)

Bone's solution is probs better, depends on what you want to do :)

Thx for the quick respons guys. I'll try it and will hopefully get it right ;)

cheers!

No problems, you can pm me if you need some help

I think my description of what i wanted to do was wrong... So I'll try to do better this time ;D

So what ive got is a map with 4 spawningpoints named spawn1-4. And I have player 10 as hostile spawning creeps in the 4 spawning areas. And what I want to do is disable spawning of creeps for player 10 in spawn 2 if player 2 is not playing and the same for palyers 3 and 4 if they are absent. But atleast now I know how to not spawn builders for players 2-4 :)

Hopefully my intentions are allot better in this post... If it would help i could upload the map somewhere. My triggers might be crappy.

Thx allot nookan

@nookan: Go

in your triggers for spawning the units for each spawn, simply put a

condition if status of player (number) is playing

if the player inst playing that it will return false and the trigger wont be carried out
