u can set a trigger inactive by
Code: Select all
$allies1 nottriggerable //allies1 is the targetname u gave the trigger
and active again by
Code: Select all
$allies1 triggerable //allies1 is the targetname u gave the trigger
Setting it nottriggerable in the 1st line of ur spawnchange thread would make it execute the thread just once.
On the other hand, what u need might be rather a variable like local.whotriggeredme and execute the spawnchange thread only if this variable has changed

I tried the code you had for the spawn trigger with the variable and it works great for Allies side... it only sets the thread once... but when I switch to the axis team and stand in the trigger it still keeps moving the bar everytime the trigger acts. Do I need split this into two different triggers??
Thank you so much!!! this is so close now I just want to get it done.

ooops, there's a typo
it must be
level.whotriggeredsp1 like everywhere else
i changed it now in my last post

Well I used triggerable/nottriggerable to turn the triggers on and off... it seems to be working.. but not the greatest. I think it must be the placement of the spawns.
I would like to use the spawn thread that you recommended but with the way my spawns are numbered I am not sure how it would work. I could send the script your way to take a look at it??

If u had in ur map
7 triggers t1 - t7
and before t1 4 spawnpoints sp1 - sp4 for allies
and after t7 4 spawnpoints sp29 - sp32 for axis
and between the triggers groups of 4 spawnpoints: sp5 - sp8 (allies), sp9 - sp12 (axis), sp13 - sp16 (aliies), sp17 - sp20 (axis), sp21 - sp24 (allies) and sp25 - sp28 (axis)

what would u say (if it did work

There are two ways to have a trigger run a thread . One way is by useing setthread to run a thread when the trigger is triggered . That way though the thread is run every time the trigger is triggered you will have multiple copies of the thread running at the same time fighting with each other in some cases . The other way is to make a looping thread like this
mythread:
while(1)
{
$mytrigger waittill trigger
local.player = parm.other
****do stuff here****
while(isalive local.player && local.player istouching $mytrigger)
waitframe
}
end
Doing it that way the trigger can not be triggered untill the player leaves the trigger or is dead and the waittill trigger line is read again and you will have only one thread running

Actually what I did was setup all my triggers and gave them a target name like trig1, trig2 and so on... then I threaded a thread the make every trigger after the trig2 nottriggerable like
Triggerset:
$trig3 nottriggerable
$trig4 nottriggerable
This way only the 1st two would act... then In the setthread spawnchanger thread that trig1 initiated I turned on the next set of triggers on and turned off trig1 so it would only act once.
$trig1 nottriggerable
$trig3 triggerable
and so on
If the opposite team pushed back using $trig3... the setthread would change spawns back and turn on $trig1 again...
It is all very confusing... but I think I have it worked out. Need to test it on the server with a bunch of people to be sure it works like I drew it up on paper.
Thanks so much for all your help!!

well you can put if statements into a thread like the one I posted . I just think it is better to make sure you only have 1 thread running for each trigger .

I think I have this almost worked out... but I still have not been able to figure out a good way to reset the meter and start map again with remaining time when a push is one.
The code below is the thread that the last trigger initiates when Axis win the push... the "axiswin" thread just puts up text saying the won... then everyone gets killed... spawns are changed back to beginning of map... and at the end of the thread I have (4) level.alliedprogress-- (which is suppose to put the meter back to center like the start of map) but it doesnt always work out that way... does anyone know of a way that I can have the meter redrawn like the start of the map using this last thread???
