Ok, after thorough discussion and debates, Felith and I managed to find out what was wrong. It turns out I forgot to add IsCoopMission=Yes in [Basic], which causes the client to not register the disallowance etc. So yes, that was my mistake there. So sorry for the whole confusion

@Speeder
If you don't have any plan to use your unfinished custom Slave Miner. Please bring back the vanilla Slave Miner.

edit: or separate them with new codes.  (my Radar Tower!!!!!!!!!!)

Sequel finished. I uploaded it to post abowe, also updated the first one (changed voice set for repairman)
About sequel - be warned, maybe bugs can occur with reinforment, which supposed to be fixed in that version.

@John Carver. I tried your mecha assault missions, and they are good.
But can you edit the first one so that there is a lot less units attacking you. I lost every unit (except nuke tank) in the first wave. The nuke tank barely (and i mean very close) survived the timer, it was destroyed mere seconds after the objective was complete.
After this bit(second objective) can you make the tank immune to mind control as i lost it to a psychic tower, and killed all my stuff.
Also why does the heavy kamaz emmit an EM-Pulse?

In the second mission, i like how you have made the use of incorrect images for cameos, make sense (sorry if my grammar sucks, writing is not my thing)

[John Carver]

Well, about first part of 1-st mission - depends on strategy. Ive managed to survive some time even after objective complete. Just dont stand your troops close to firing range of NT. But in general, thats an intended - AFK positioning of NT will not do good for you, so its require at least to group units in one tactical position, as of course they weak separately

.

Clear the Psy towers with Elite Guards. Also this map doesnt contain spooks. And in general it provides you with wide spectre of abilities, of you know what to do. About emitting - thats healing aura for troops same as apoc`s, position your wounded infantry near kamaz to heal them.

So I've thought of a new custom mission idea: Giant ants in North Korea after the hermit kingdom's latest nuclear test results in a giant anthill, forcing an American covert ops team to be sent in to destroy the nest. (with a Warhawk helicopter). 

 

Bonus objective: Find and silence two ice cream trucks around the capital of Pongyang.

[John Carver]

Fixed one trigger in sequel, it was supposed to power up somethnig at Objective 3.

Fixed (suupposedly) a bug, related to breaking the mission in first cover-op, resulted by engineer dying after you complete the half of first objective, and not counting as loss.

I am currently working on my own challenge (but im going to wait until 3.3.3 is released - for map editor - so i can finish it) and i call dibs on the name "Annihilation challenge".
I'll probably eventually ask for help on it (e.g adding that briefing thing in the client, adding csf, and making "some" units have special traits)

I've repacked The challenge maps that has been tested and (for the most part) doable here. The maps are as follows :

- Scavenger Challenge

- Radiance Challenge

- Texthound Challenge

- Nightwing Challenge

 

All maps have been edited to work with the Challenge map selection. If you want to play the following, I'd suggest you update them with this.

Hello guys.

I'm new to this map making, so before I decided to make an entire map by myself, I decided to edit an existing challenge first to try my hands in INI and trigger editting. It would be nice if someone can test this for me and give me feedback. I'm still new and stuff, so I kinda expect bugs and stuff....

Any form of feedback is appreciated, thanks!

In Scavenger Challenge. the ally AI which could be RU can build mobile factory. And somehow if we enable SW, we can copy ally Mobile factory.

[Handepsilon]

You mean the enemy AI? That's not really a problem, unless you meant the Ally. Playing Scavenger challenge with AI ally is really not recommended

Hello, I've just started map making, and I would like some reviews on my work. I love to make maps and bases look pretty, so I hope it's somewhat good.

This is not MO, only Yuri's Revenge since the MO editor isn't out yet.

All neutral units are given to the player at start. It's supposed to be a 1v1 map where you already have a fortress and you have to take out your oponent's fortress. Best with Soviet on the left and Allies on the right.

Idk how to attach the map, tell me if you want to try it out.

[UNSC THE CHILL OF WAR]

@DrMaggot that map looks nice, but there is a few things that will need changing. Mainly the allied air HQs, they are bigger in MO so the one closest to the water will need to be moved/removed.

Also, to attach the map, press the more reply options button (next to post), press attach files, find the map and attach it.

[DrMaggot]

Thanks.

Well this map was never intended to be for MO, I know the airfields are bigger there. But if I had to remake this map for MO I would restart from scratch.

 

When I try to upload the file it says I am not allowed to post this type of file (.yrm)

[UNSC THE CHILL OF WAR]

Try putting it in its own folder and zipping it as a zip file

It works I guess

Hey again,

 

I am now trying to make a singleplayer mission, but I'm struggling to learn how to make triggers properly work. I have figured out some of it, I understand the tutorial, but there are many things I have no idea how to do or where to look for advanced help.

Things like triggering paradrop, AI attack on a target, displaying in-game messages etc.

 

Does anyone know where I can learn to do all of that, or would be kind enough to explain me some of those to get me going ? I'm a quick learner.

 

 

I'd like to be able to make a map before the MO editor comes out !

Thanks.

You know how to spawn reinforcements, right? For the paradrop, you need to check the Cargo Plane flag and specify the Transport Waypoint for a team.

For the ingame texts you need the trigger with action#11 "Text Trigger". If you want to use a custom one, you'll have to create a stringtable file(.csf).

To make AI attack something, you'll need to spawn reinforcements using the triggers. Give every team a script. The script may look something like:

0-Patrol to waypoint x

1-Patrol to waypoint y

2-Attack enemy building [ID]

 Also, don't forget that IDs you'll see in FA are for the vanilla YR and may differ from the MO ones.

Like, if you open Co-op The Cardinal, you'll see [141-Hotel], but we know that in reality its a Psychic Amplifier.

Alternatively you can try using "Attack Waypoint"
