Mediatracker Cliptriggering

Hi all,

Im sincerly done with the basic building of my newest RPG map...
I will have some Beta testing for Pathfinding tomorrow,

But im still with a good question mark...
Im still a bit basic in the MT world... I looked on Mania Creative for some tutorials..

But one thing i dont understand is the clip triggering.

When u have multiple route's like on the great map (Collector of Sebik) with the bridges... when u drive on it (when not allowed) u get a screen that ur dead...
But when u went to a certain point a trigger activates the trigger on the bridge, which allowes u passage...

If someone would have a tutorial, or some personal time left to explain i would be grateful...

Thanks in Advance.
House

Thanks Hawkger, ill study in on it again
I saw the tutorial before, il have to make a test map first i think to try it :)

I know Orion Invasion, that point is at the start, so are the first clips...

But my thing is after CP 24... does that mean i will have to number the clips like he did, and then for example clip 10 is then already triggered?

You don't have to number/rename the clips at all. He just did it for better overview. The first trigger you set has the identy 1, the 20th the identity 20 etc.
Think that's how it works....

That is how it works^^ But sometimes you could get in trouble with the numbers when you have to much mt blocks :wacko:

Hawk is right, except for the fact that the first trigger will receive the number 0, the second trigger is number 1 and so on. (That's also how it's described in the tutorial.)
