No problem. I will leave this thread open if you encounter more errors, just ask. I'm always here. (Except when not :P)

EDIT: The map definitely looks fun and promising. But a lot of tidying could be done to it :P I mean the crazy memory leaks which will lag the game after 10 minutes)

LOL. Please Tell me what Triggers are leaking. For one i dont know how to stop them and second i DO know what they are i just dont know what triggers would be "leaking". . . . in other words i know what they are Tecnhincaly but wouldnt know a leak if you showed me one, circled it in red, and said "this is a memmory leak." Thx for telling me. . . people complain when map first comes up sometimes about lag . . usualy its 1 out of like 12 that complain :)

The trigger defeats both players at once, but only if there are zero zombie capitals on the map. If you want the zombies to be defeated separately, use two triggers, one for each zombie player.
I didn't "phail". You simply misunderstood the trigger, which isn't a big deal. Don't hate your map, its fun just needs some fixing.

For memory leaks I'm going to send you to another website, actually three:

http://www.jx3.net/TDG/wiki/index.php/F ... mory_Leaks" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
(These are basically the same thing, find the one that you like most)

--3ICE

EDIT: I did a test, confirming that the trigger doesn't work. I also found the reason why:
The Infested cities are units.
When they die, they are still units.
(But with 0 hp, thus dead units)
The trigger condition disregards HP.
It counts in the dead cities too.
So that is why the trigger didn't work.

To fix: Remove infested cities upon their death.t_eve A unit owned by dg dies.
t_eve A unit owned by brown dies.
t_co Unit type is infested city
t_act Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game.


EDIT2: Also you have to wait 5 seconds or even more for the game for removing... war3 bug
So delete the condition and make an t_ifIf inside the actions.
And above that t_ifIf, put t_waiWait 5 seconds.

thank you for telling me about the Zombie trigger that doesnt works. . .but what about the human one? thats the one that "phail". . .


------ Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Dies

------ ((Number of units in (Units owned by Player 1 (Red) of type City )) Equal to 0) and ((Number of units in (Units owned by Player 1 (Red) of type Hero)) Equal to 0)

------ Game - Defeat Player 1 (Red) with the message: Dah Zombies Ate ...
------ Game - Display to (All players) the text: Red has been killed...


P.S. Sorry i wasnt clear about what i was talking about. . . I am the zombie, i killed one of the humans(destroyed there citys and his hero). And the trigger didnt work




EDIT:
t_eve Unit - A unit owned by Player 11 (Dark Green) Dies
t_eve Unit - A unit owned by Player 12 (Brown) Dies
t_co (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Infested City
t_act Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game


Is this correct?

@EDIT: Yes it is.

The lose triggers don't work, because GUI sucks :) By the way let me teach you how to debug triggers:
Disable the trigger's condition
Display the numbers we used in the condition to all players.
Example:
Game - Display to (All players) the text: (String((Number of units in (Units owned by Player 1 (Red) of type City))))
Every time red loses a unit, you will see in game how many cities red has.
If the number doesn't decrease with the number of cities you lost, you are one step closer to finding the error.
Using this debugging method, we find out that the number decreases correctly, but is higher by 1 than expected. At 0 cities, the game tells us we still have one. Why is that? Because the game is slow! We have to give warcraft about 5 seconds to rethink that number.

As for actually fixing this bug, we will use the method I posted already. Wait before checking the condition. Sadly, we have to give war3 a little bit of time before counting, so war3 can give us the true value. So remove the condition and create an If, as I said earlier:

And above that t_ifIf, put t_waiWait 5 seconds.
I wasn't so clear, because I rushed the answer. (Other things to do came up...)
