I am now going to make a map with nothing but magical bug spawning cacti when you approach them
It’s not magic it’s where bugs come from silly
Not sure what your issue with the Bug Hive was, but remember that those use their "population" to spawn attackers. This is represented by the red icons above the Hives that also get depleted when you fight the hive defenders. So you won't be able to spawn massive attack waves in (small) hives as the hive population will run out quickly.
That explains why I wasn't able to get that to work together, I didn't account for hive population
Thanks!!
Good video, but the mistakes you come back to confuse the person who is watching, I would advise you to do everything right and it was better to rewrite a certain moment than to correct yourself during editing, and so a good tutorial, keep up the good work!
Thanks for the feedback man! I agree with this, it just took too long to get this video out after 5 retakes while being hit with the flu, so honestly I just wanted done with this particular one. But I agree, and I'm taking your feedback to heart :)
this editor is like taking a course in computer science LOL
You’re not wrong, but once you get the hang of the basics you can build on it from there!
Hello everyone! Please note that all variables MUST not include spaces, it cannot be read otherwise. “Waves Defeated” will not work, it must be “waves_defeated” or “Waves_Defeated”.
For simplicity, I recommend all lower case and use underscores. It’s easy to remember
Funny thing.. variable starts with name: "My Variable" .. so it's a wrong example from the start..
UI needs overhaul because it's impossible to figure out which part can be edited ..
First time i creating something on computer (execpt Paint) and i created some difficult things, but you really crealy show how everything work so sub, and some likes going to you. Heh my english isnt good (is bad at all :P) but you do a great job. Some comments going on your videos :) shit writing in english was more harder than this editors and triggers :D
Thank you for the kind words!! I’m glad I was helpful :)
Thanks man
I spent three hours designing a map only to end up not being able to set any bug attack
Please check out my later tutorial. It’s more up to date and more accurate than this one :)
Thx for the Video. I am currently at a map and want to chance the type of bugs that spawn each wave. For example Wave 1 -> Warrior, Wave 2 -> Tanker ..... but i can´t do it. Any ideas on how to creat that ?
You can create a separate trigger, have it run a variable check condition on “waves_defeated”, then add an effect called Mutation activate or enable.
When “waves_defeated” = 2
Then Tanker mutation activates
I haven’t found a way of making a wave exclusively warriors, or exclusively tigers, or tankers, but they should start spawning with the mutation enabled
@@LionStein Yeah thx for the help. You are right. It spawns them but not only them. My other solution is to make a cave where all the units are and then send "group tankers" after a time. But his looks so bad on the map. If i find a solution i will let you know
Hey, can you make a video on how to make infinite waves? That can be triggered by for example capturing a terminal and end when capturing another terminal? I couldn't figure out how to do that myself.
Hello! Please check out my Revisited tutorial video, it should answer your question!!
@@LionStein i copied the settings from the other video (which btw is not in the playlist and i had to search in your channel). But it still didn't create an endless wave.
@@kabakaprime5127 I recommend connecting with the Discord Editor Support channels, unfortunately I can’t help much without seeing your configuration
How did you get those "condition triggers" to fit between the effect ones? my conditions always snap to the top of the list and i'm unable to fit them between any of the effects. i even tested it doing exactly what you did but it still forced my condition to the top.
If you click “timeline” for the trigger, you should then be able to move the conditions around in between effects! :)
I'm trying to make it like a counter attack wave after retaking a fort but I need more than 4 squads of bugs at a time I need hordes, how would I go about that
You would need to add more to the Arachnid Supply. Check out my redone bug attack tutorial video for a more updated and more accurate guide
I was hyped for this but I'm so fuckin confused
Hello @xunknownvoicex , have you checked out the Terran Command Discord to get questions answered? :)
How do you rotate the units what keypad?
Units cannot be rotated with the keypad, you have to click and drag
Hi there. I'm hoping you can help me with an issue of mine? I set up a Edited battle map where I want to set up Wave attacks and I sorta got it but the problem is the game is triggering Victory after killing bugs instead of Surviving the waves. I set it to 5 waves for now till i am able to make more changes to the map and up the wave's to do more. I dont know where i gone wrong But i checked the coding and Objectives and still no change just kept getting victory. Im new to these coding things.
Hi there! I recommend checking out and asking the Terran Command official Discord. The community there is awesome! They’ll help much faster than I can and with screenshots probably:)
@@LionStein thank you. This issues being giving me a headache trying to figure out what's wrong.
Let's say that I want you to first eliminate an enemy unit and then start the waves of bugs, how do I do it?
Hello Hanllelus! Go ahead and hop onto the Starship Troopers Terran Command discord and the community would love to help!
Yes, I'm already in the discord and I already uploaded a map that is half finished, it's called bugs coloni and traitor zone, that's why I was asking about the waves, it should be easy. but i am a idiot
@@hanllelus6725 You're not an idiot, I don't believe it. @ me in the Discord and we'll work together
I really want to make maps but this hurts my brain haha
It’s not that difficult once you play with it a few times. Start simple, I made several maps before I experimented with bug attack waves
