Something I want to incorporate or make as a whole but how do you make cinematics in maps. Like in Saga of doodan, kill me or even when noobs attack where triggers make the unit move and theres text speech( in sync with real time). Any tutorials or guides on that. K thx bai.

make locations where you want to move the units, then use a trigger to move them + waits + display text...
just make sure you don't get wait blocks

And if you want, for example, that a character says something ONLY when a player tuch him (maybe he's running off all the players because he's scared?), simply make a location center on that unit and detect each time if a player is in it, then, order it to stop and display the text you want! :D

Waits are your friend when making movie maps, just put waits in between anything you want to happen, then simply make the triggers for it, you'll want to have your text and your actions different, the text goes with the waits, actions should happen when a death count is at a certain amount, so you start with it at 0, and then you have your text, and then you set it to 1, and have a trigger that does the actions you want when the death count is set at one, to make sure certain actions aren't performed multiple times, since you need the text displays to be under each player.
