Ok, so I have a script, and I can't find out whats wrong with it.

The onTrig4 is the problem. Unmatched Parentheses.

Here's the script:
(script dormant bridgespawn
	(ai_place Bridge_Covenant)
	(sleep 100)
	(ai_set_respawn Bridge_Covenant 1)
)

(script startup onTrig1
	(sleep_until (volume_test_objects trig1 (players 0))
	(ai_place startencounter)
	(ai_place startmarines)
	(object_create_containing A)
)

(script startup destroyallthings
	(object_destroy_all)
)

(script startup onTrig3
	(sleep_until (volume_test_objects trig3 (players 0))
	(object_destroy_containing A)
	(object_create_containing B)
)

(script startup onTrig4
	(sleep_until (volume_test_objects (player 0))
	(sleep 10)
	(wake bridgespawn)
)

Oh wait, I think it's because I put player instead of players.
Headnoob, it didn't give me an error with those parts. If it does though, thanks.

@ Head Noob, the 15s / 30s are optional.

Here:

(script startup onTrig1
	(sleep_until (volume_test_objects trig1 (players)))
	(ai_place startencounter)
	(ai_place startmarines)
	(object_create_containing A)
)

No I didn't, it said that trig1 (players 0))) was not a valid trigger.

For once, I wish you had copied my script rather than looking at what was wrong.

Why is your object list (players 0)? This isn't a valid object list. (players) would be the correct object list. Change this for ALL your sleep until trigger volume lines.

That actually won't work, because you're using a specific object in conjunction with the volume_test_objects command. Either change it to volume_test_object or use a players list.

WTF. Thats just to make it long for no reason.
The two main trigger volumes i use r:
(sleep_until (volume_test_objects trig1 (players)))
and:
(if (= (volume_test_objects trig1 (list_get (players) 0)) true)
)

Try enclosing the values with " ", maybe that will work.
Eg.


(script dormant bridgespawn
	(ai_place Bridge_Covenant)
	(sleep 100)
	(ai_set_respawn Bridge_Covenant 1)
)

(script startup onTrig1
	(sleep_until (volume_test_objects "trig1" (players 0)))
	(ai_place startencounter)
	(ai_place startmarines)
	(object_create_containing A)
)

(script startup destroyallthings
	(object_destroy_all)
)

(script startup onTrig3
	(sleep_until (volume_test_objects "trig3" (players 0)))
	(object_destroy_containing A)
	(object_create_containing B)
)

(script startup onTrig4
	(sleep_until (volume_test_objects "trig4" (players 0)))
	(sleep 10)
	(wake bridgespawn)
)

No, he has a reason for it, and it would work except for the fact that he's using the volume_test_objects command rather than the volume_test_object command.

Haha, didn't catch that. It should look like:

(sleep_until (volume_test_object trig_1 (unit (list_get (players) 0) 15)))

for all the sleep until lines.

Both of those work.

And the picture doesn't really explain anything. All it provides us is the name of the trigger volumes, which were implemented correctly into the script.

I used to despise them, but now they are a blast, I have no idea why...

Try this: (sleep_until (volume_test_objects trig1 (players)) 15)
?
If not ur script is wierd. I use this for volume triggers.

Is this for multiplayer? If so:

(global short x 0)
 
(script continuous changenumber
   (if (= x 16)
      (set x -1)
   )
   (set x (+ x 1))
)
 
(script continuous trigcheck
   (sleep_until (volume_test_objects trig1 (unit (list_get (players) x))) 15)
   (sleep 15)
)
