Making a Prebuilt Base for Skirmish[YR]

Apex · Last edited by Apex on Sun Apr 19, 2009 5:22 am; edited 4 times in total

I only know that this works with Yuri's Revenge, I haven't modded normal RA2 in years.

This is a simple tutorial for setting who gets to start out with what buildings. Make sure Beginner mode under options is OFF.

First place the startpoints you want to use:

After this make the buildings/units you want to belong to you(this can be done as you please):

Once this is done open the trigger editor:

Create a new trigger and call it whatever:

Goto events, create a new event and set it to off at "Any Event" or #8:

Go under Actions and make a new action and set it to "Change House..." or #14. Set the player you want the building to switch to(Player @ A would be the player at start 0):

Now it is time to attach the trigger to the building/unit(s) you want to become yours, choose "Nothing" at the top of the white box to the left of your screen. After this you double click on a unit/building and a box should come up. Goto "Attached Triggers" and select your new trigger:

Repeat the final step for all objects you want that specific player to own.

Also, you have to create a new trigger for every player.

It should be noted player @ <A>, etc is only avaliable for YR map modding.

It was used on that stock map where you start with a nuclear reactor.

This tutorial can be used as a basis for survival type maps.

This Needs 3 Trigger and one is attached to a another Trigger, it works in Skirmish.
I make a tutorial when i am @ home, now i am at work,
i can only show a textmessage, @ home i make a Video.

for example here cut of my actual map.

Triggers

Trigger1:

Trigger Options:

Name: Give Base
House: Russia
Type: 2 (Reapating)
Attached Trigger: Trigger 3(Give Base after spy)
Dissabled: NO

Event:
0: #13 Elabsed Time - Number: 1

Actions:
0: #14 Change House - Russia (in your map "Player @ B" or another u want [my map has only Americans and Russia])
1: #54 Dissable Trigger - Trigger Give Base

Trigger2:

Trigger Options:

Name: Give LAB
House: Russia
Type: 0
Attached Trigger: None
Dissabled: NO

Event:
0: #13 Elabsed Time - Number: 1

Actions:
0: #14 Change House - Russia
1: #53 Enable Trigger - Trigger Give Base after spy
2: #54 Dissable Trigger - Trigger Give LAB

Trigger3:

Trigger Options:

Name: Give Base after spy
House: Russia
Type: 0
Attached Trigger: None
Dissabled: YES

Event:
0: #48 Destroyed by anything

Actions:
0: #14 Change House - Zivilist (in your map "Player @ A")
1: #54 Dissable Trigger - Trigger Give Base after spy

This are the triggers that u need.

NOTE

Now go to Edit -> Tag Editor
Select Trigger3 (Give Base after spy)

and klick DELETE

You must every delete the Tag of the Trigger that you want to attach to a another Trigger

Now attach the Triggers to the Buidlings, Units - Trigger 1
Attach to LAB (or the Beacon) Trigger 2.

When u start now the Game and destroy, the Base will change to Amerika (or in your game Player @ A (Startposition 1)

I hope it are ok, @ home i will make a Video where you see it.
