its going great execpt for three things idk how to do (sry if they seem noobish) first; When a wave of creeps spawn to and begin to run the maze they run jumbled together in a pack and they stop moving every now and then because they cant cut turns all together... how can i make them run single-file like in most TDs? Second: would i use an integer varible for a leader board showing player name/ # of kills and how could i do that. and Third: How do i set the teams lives and how do i make it to where if a creep leaks through that a life is lost? thankx ^^ sry if it seems alot (eenans prolley laughin rite now)

I do have a few problems though
I cant get my leader board to show up (which i think i can fix on my own)and when i try to set the life loss triggers it wants a value i dont know what to put at.. for example if i wanted the trigger to start with 25 lives (which it does and then i go through the event and conditions but at the actions.....
.......
Unit - a unit enters Leakregion <gen>
........
(Owner of (Killling unit)) Equal to Player 10 (light blue)
........
Set Lives[value] =
Index- 1 how can i make it to where there is no
Index there and its just
- 1? thankx in advance btw: the color coded
Set Lives[index] =
value- 1 is in a window because since i cannot specify a value for
[index] i cant press ok
If you didnt understand my question here is a screen shot of my problem

I don't know English good enough to be able to explain that. Basically just click OK and it'll work. If you still can't get it to work, I'll capture a video of me doing it...

Here you go:

EDIT: I accidentally named the variable "Lives". It should have been "Kills". Not a big problem though, this video is for explaining how to work with Arithmetic Functions, not about creating a trigger.
