I've been making this single-player map for a few days now, but it keeps getting errors and bugs all the time. I have "remade" it once, or in other words, made a fresh layout-only copy out of it.

The problem is, that NONE of the triggers in the map work properly. For example, there are two reinforcements triggers at the start for the player. One spawns an APC that brings in infantry, and the other spawns a pair of Titans. Well, the problem is, that the units should come from a tunnel in the north-west. They don't. They appear at the west-edge of the map. What's even worse is, that for no apparent reason, the trigger that spawns the Titans keep spawning the Titans again and again and again, and I think you can guess the outcome...

Second example is that a trigger that should move the camera to a selected waypoint locks the camera into the position it was before the trigger was activated, and you cannot move it, no matter what you do. Also, it fails to display a text message.

I have checked the triggers, task forces, scripts and teams many times, and I can't find problems in them. My conclusion is that since it's a map for a mod, the problems are caused by ini editing. Possible? You tell me, I've only edited rules, art, tutorial and _battle.inis.

Btw, I've removed mod-exclusive content from the map, but it still doesn't work properly!

The titan triggers weren't set on 'repeat' - in fact I didn't have a problem with the titans at all when I played it in the mission.. hmm.gif


Well I found out what was the problem with this one; The tag which set the Titans to appear at the edge of the map (btw thanks for the solution for this one smile.gif I didn't remember there were two additional reinforcement actions) was set in the Titan's team settings. I removed it, and the trigger immediately stopped repeating itself.

Also, I don't know what was wrong with the camera. It works fine now, and I forgot if I had changed anything in it lol.gif

EDIT: Oh right, I only set the speed lower, to 3 (it was 7), and it worked.

Thanks for the help smile.gif
