I have a funny senario that I have on SW Galactic Battlegrounds.
I have a Sith Padawan, he is on some ground in the middle of a starfield, he walks up to a sith MAster, the MAster tells him "Beyond that gate is Heaven" the padawan walks through the gate, and dies. Then I win.  |

I tried making a scenario, and one problem I had was that I couldn’t figure out how to change the name of a guy who would be created during the scenario. This is how the scenario looked like:
Units
I am on one part of the map.
6 enemies are grouped together on a different part of the map.
Triggers
Trigger #1 changes my guy’s name.
Trigger #2 (disabled) has a delay of 5 seconds, then creates 4 Cataphracts and a Hero.
Trigger #3 activates trigger #2 when an enemy becomes visible.
Trigger #4 in theory is supposed to change the name of the Hero (created in trigger #2). I just can’t figure out how to do it.
So, is there any way that I can change the Hero’s name? So far what I’ve had to do is have him already created (and from there it’s simple to change his name), but as part of a 3rd nation, and then when the other units get created (in trigger #2) I just change the Hero’s nationality to mine (and thus he becomes visible). It’s definitely not the best fix, since he could get killed before I want him to (and other obvious reasons). |

| Could you have the guy change his name by entering area? |

First you need a condition or an object to die or something. Lets say you want it to happen in 10 min game time. Here is the way I would do them.
Creating Rohan Cavalry
Area
1. "Rohan Area"
Select the area on the map
Condition
1. "Rohan Riders Time"
Select Game-Attribute
Change the game time to min 600 and max 620* (this is in seconds)
Object
1. "Rohan Riders"
You will have to select units from a list by checking a box or something
Select the owner of the units... if it’s your ally then select Player 2 or whoever
Select the unit from the list... some sort of cavalry (only 1 type per object)
Put the min and max number of cavalry you want created (say 20 in each)
Somewhere there will be a box where you can select the area they will be located in when they are created. Select "Rohan Area".
2. "Rohan Riders 2" (optional)
If you want a different type of cavalry to be created along with the first, you must do the same thing as above. Just select a different type of cavalry and choose the min and max you want. Everything else is the same.
Effect
1. "Create Rohan Riders"
Select Unit-Attribute
Select Create Object
Select "Rohan Riders"
2. "Create Rohan Riders 2" (optional)
Same thing just select "Rohan Riders 2"
Trigger
1. "Rohan"
IF "Rohan Riders Time" THEN (no delay) "Create Rohan Riders"
(or if you want both cavalry created)....
1. "Rohan"
IF "Rohan Riders Time" THEN (no delay) "Create Rohan Riders" AND (no delay) "Create Rohan Riders 2"
*The max time can also be used to set the max number of cavalry created based on the size of the area. The number of cavalry created in 1 second of time is dependant on the size of the area. So you may say min 20 cavalry, but it might not have enough time to accomplish this.
If you have a small area assigned, you will need to make the time longer. Only problem will be that the cavalry will be created one by one.
Do not worry about how long you set the max time unless you are using it as a max unit setting.
To make the units attack
Area
1. "Rohan Attack Area"
Select the area you want the Rohan Riders to attack/defend from the map.
Effect
1. "Cavalry Attack Move"
Select Unit-Attribute
Select Unit-Task Area
Select "Rohan Riders"
Select move to "Rohan Attack Area"
Select the type of movement you want (say attack move)
Trigger
1. "Rohan Movement"
IF "always on" THEN (no delay) "Cavalry Attack Move"
Again, you may create more effects for the other cavalry types if you have them. Just put "AND" then your next effect. |

In my helm’s deep scenario I want to have a bunch of cavalry come when my gate is destroyed.
How would I do that?
Also the AoE trigger setup work like this.
I make a new trigger.
Than I make a condition for the trigger.
And then I make the effect for the trigger.
And how do you "morph" a swordsman into a knight?
Like in the El Cid campaign. |
