Hi all
Could someone please explaine step by step as simply and straight forward as possibble, setting up an end to a game. If one builds a map and they say that an armoury must be detroyed or a chopper, what are the steps to making the game end. Trevor I am sure you can answere this considering you are becoming the newest map guru on Nova. You might also want to do a step by step to show how you make an objective turn green, like destroy helis at obj valkerie for eg.

Thanks guys. I am just looking for a really simple set of instruction to print off so i can sort some half comp maps i have found.

Paratroops

Para troops are easy to do...

place a man of to the side of your map...way on the other side. make him group 3 for example

now place a teleport target where you want the para to come from...make the teleport target the same group..group 3..you'll need to give the teleport target a number..like you do with a waypoint..edit it's item attributes..over on the right hand side...you see number 0...change that to 1..you must number each teleport target with a different number.

these must be the only 2 things in that group...

now raise the z value if the teleport target to 100...edit it's item attributes...type 100 in the left box where it says Z.

now place an area trigger near the teleport point..say it's area trigger number 1

create an event..if group1 in area trigger 1 teleport group 3 to teleport target 1..

save and export the map...play the map...run to the area trigger and watch for the paratropper...

Regards
