Singleplayer help, I'm trying to make a whole Set Options

[Madiba127]

Hi i have been trying to edit some of the TS singleplayer maps and creating my own but i want to change some scripts.

the first single player map is the first one i want to do.

1) i would like to be able to have the base to be under neutral control at the start as it would be under attack, then when a dropship arrives and the players units move past the gate the base is under player control

2) Dropship Reinforcements arrive every 10 minutes with Light Infantry

3) the AI attacks at random times with Units (i haven't decided want ones)

4) Does any one have a good single player tutorial so i don't keep posting

5) i will be using a mod created by TibEd but i don't know how to add a new side.


Help Will be Very Nice

I don't know how to handle dropships, so probably LKO or someone else can help you with that.

1) i would like to be able to have the base to be under neutral control at the start as it would be under attack, then when a dropship arrives and the players units move past the gate the base is under player control

Make a new trigger with the "1 Entered by..." event (player's house as the parameter); for actions, use "36 All change house" with the player's house as the parameter. Change the trigger's owner to the Neutral house.
Then, place a few celltags on the gate and attach them to the trigger you just made.

3) the AI attacks at random times with Units (i haven't decided want ones)

Give the AI house a base and an auto-production trigger (look at the auto-production triggers which were automatically generated by FinalSun for help). After doing that the AI should attack like the skirmish AI.

If the AI doesn't have a base and you want the AI to attack from the map's borders, see the FinalSun help file tutorial named "Teams" (replace the RA2 GI's with the units you want the AI to attack with of course).

5) i will be using a mod created by TibEd but i don't know how to add a new side.

From what I've heard of Tibed you're never going to get a working new side with it. Start editing ini's with Notepad instead; it's faster and doesn't limit your modding of TS like TibEd does.
