AmEyeBlind Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 hi, i wonder it doesnt crash! well anyway i quoted the script you posted and marked the things i seen in red. 1. the - infront of the trigger, dont know if it does a difference but it shouldn't be there. 2. that space in front of the area name, double check on that. 1 space will make it not work. (hint: never use space use _ instead) 3. major mistake, you didn't close the start_game event. change those and it should work. <area_group name="area1" area_name="area1" group="mp_players" interval="0.3" condition="1"/> -<user name="user" type="once"> <trigger type="UnitInArea" area="area1"/> <event name="activate_temp"/> </user> <event name="start_game"> <element type="UnitInArea" area=" area1" state="activtate" start_time="3"/> </event> <event name="activate_temp"> <element type="ActivateGroup" group_id="temp_wave" start_time="2"/> <element type="UnitInArea" area="area1" state="deactivate" start_time="3"/> </event> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRIN_Wolfsong Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I suggest using a text editor with XML syntax highlighting, like Notepad++. It helps you avoid a lot of small mistakes by simply seeing that there are matching tags and is the highlighting breaks, doesn't show the right colors on parts you know are correct, you know you've done something wrong. Even better is to use an editor that actually tells you where there is an error and why, like Eclipse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
