So, i made a multiplayer map where you must capture a battle lab to win.
but when someone capture it , nothing happens

Trigger:

1 - BattleLab is entered
NOT ATTACHED TO ANYTHING

5 Events : Entered by Player A + B + C + D + E
Action : Enable BattleLab Captured

2 - BattleLab Captured [Disabled]
NOT ATTACHED TO ANYTHING

Event : Elapsed time = 5
Action : Enable Win

3 - Win [Disabled]
NOT ATTACHED TO ANYTHING

Event : Elapsed time = 5
Action : Announce win

1st. You need to use Winner Is not Announce Win and Enable Win

2nd. You need seperate triggers for each player.

3rd. You need to attach Building (Battle Lab) to Player A's Trigger's Tag. Player A's Trigger to Player B's, Player B's to Player C's Player C's to Player D's and like that. Player A's Trigger shouldn't be attached to anything else.

So , its like this?

Triggers :

1-BattleLab Entered by A
Attached to B
Event : Entered by A
Action Enable win

2-BattleLab Entered by B
Attached to C
Event : Entered by B
Action Enable win

3-BattleLab Entered by C
Attached to D
Event : Entered by C
Action Enable win

4-BattleLab Entered by D
Attached to E
Event : Entered by D
Action Enable win

5-BattleLab Entered by E
Attached to F
Event : Entered by E
Action Enable win

6-BattleLab Entered by F
Attached to ??????? <---
Event : Entered by F
Action Enable win

+ BattleLab Is Attached to BattleLab Entered by A

Like this , it crashed.

Almost, You should use Winner Is which is 1st action on list with the Player you want to win, not Enable Win.

If this won't work in this way try leave Player A's Attached empty, Attack B to A, C to B, D to C, E to D and F to E.

1st : it crashed

2nd : What if i want to wait 5 seconds then win

You can't use Player @ X in multiplayer for Events.
At least, not without Ares.
Besides that, the Event "Entered by..." must be attached to the Battle Lab.
How else does the game know what has to be entered?

You can however use House index -1, this makes it listen for any player that enters.
However, I would test if "Enable win" is a valid Action to use in MP.
You can always use a different way, like "Force end" or something.

If you want to have a delay before it checks whether the Lab is entered, make sure you put the delay before the enter check.
IIRC Events are tested in an order Event 0, Event 1, etc.
So if you want to make it start checking for entering after 5 sec, put the Event before it.

If you want it to wait add Elapsed time of 5 to each trigger's Event list. This timer is counted after all other events happened so it will wait 5 seconds after Other teams engineer is entered.

Note: Spies also can trigger Entered By.

As RP said events wont work with Player X without Ares. Actions do AFAIK.

Attaching triggers to each other also attaches the building to each trigger but not sure which way, to or from.

You can make a seperate trigger with event #1 (I think. It should be elapsed time) with the perimeter set to 5. The trigger is disabled, but enabled when one of the Lab triggers fires. The actions have to be same as the original
Also, when reporting crashes:
a)EIP needed
b)What you did to cause the crash

its a 6 player vs 2 AI's

the 2 AI's have a battlelab

if 1 of the 6 players enter it with engineer! [i might disable spy then]... then they all win , thats how i want it to be.

is there like a event similar to enter by?

'Building exists' could be something...

I misunderstand u than no need to seperate triggers.

Use entered by -1. As AI Can't capture their own battle Lab should be no problem. You may use Loser is (One of the AIs) this should make all the players win.

Correct. But the trigger that has another attached must have its tag attached to the Lab, all other triggers should not have their own tag.

@TAK02:
"Building exists" works by Trigger owner to test if it has the building, which isn't a good idea to use in MP.

Use entered by -1 <--- Thanks all Smile

But what if the building is already attached to be owned by player H
Make it entered by a reinforcement engineer?
