I'm currently working on my first mission. Its nearing completion. Anyways, how do I set what alerts say? Like I have a area and I want it to warn you that enemies will spawn once you enter the area. How do you do that?
Also when am I completely done making my mission how do I publish it to WI add on missions?
Thanks!

Hi Daniel, this forum is not dead 
I suggest you ask PhillipEarl. He's an expert on making missions.
Please read the Mission Sharing Rules in the Mission Sharing forum on how to publish your mission pack once it is ready.

Hello Daniel! Sorry for the delay - I sent you a pm regarding posting a new mission.
With regard to your question here:
| Quote: | | Like I have a area and I want it to warn you that enemies will spawn once you enter the area. How do you do that? |
Do this:
Create a new trigger for the side that you want to see the alert. If multiple sides can see the alert, select all relevant sides. The trigger will appear where necessary.
Once you have the trigger menu up, click on the conditions tab. The pulldown menu should have a condition already showing that says "area contains units." That's the one you want. Click on that to bring up the condition window. Click on the underlined parts to modify the conditin for your needs and click okay.
Next go to the actions tab. In the pulldown menu will have several options. First is the ecom, where you'll be given the option of a large ecom with a portrait, or a small ecom. This is the best way to get a player's attention, but can be annoying to some. The other two options are "set objective" and "show alert." Set Objective will put your text in the upper left of the screen, and Show Alert will put it in the lower left.
Note the difference between "objective" and "formal objective." Objectives show at the top left of the screen, and FORMAL Objectives show in the mission objectives screen, and are set seperately.
Hope that helps! |
