This happened in the "In the Wake of Gods" campaign, in the "Tribes of the East" faction, in the third mission. There, knights fought each other on a bridge.

I was trying to make it for the single-player mode, but it didn't work. The other scripts play fine, but these ones don't.

What exactly happens? Does nothing play at all, or do the monsters just flail their arms and return to their original position?
If it's the latter, then the monsters either don't have the corresponding animation or the animation set for the arena isn't specified in the monster's settings.
What does the console say?

Nothing happens at all. I enter the region, and they just stand in place. They don't move their arms. Nothing plays.

What player are you playing as? If not player 1, then in the function, you need to replace 1 with the number of the human player.

I was trying to make it work for the single-player mode, but it still didn't work. All the other scripts play correctly, but these ones don't.

Maybe these scripts are interfering? Please show the complete script.

Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER, 'q0', nil)
PlayObjectAnimation("q17", "death", ONESHOT_STILL)
sleep(3)

Could you provide a script that, when I enter a specific region, teleports a hero (demon) to my location and attacks me?

function TeleportDemon(hero) if GetCurrentPlayer()==1 then SetObjectPosition('attacking hero name',x,y,level number); sleep(2); MakeHeroInteractWithObject('attacking hero name',hero); end; end; Trigger(REGION_ENTER_AND_STOP_TRIGGER,'region name','TeleportDemon')

I need a script that will cause the mission to fail after the hero dies. Thanks in advance.
When editing through the map editor, the game crashes.

When editing through the map editor, it crashes.

function alive()
	while IsHeroAlive("script_hero_name") do
		sleep(10)
	end
	Loose()
end

startThread(alive)

If the editor crashes, try editing the script using Notepad.

So, the question is: can you explain how the HoMM5MapScriptsEditor works? I don't understand how to use it with Notepad. If anything, I'm a complete beginner in this.

It's not working.

I don't understand how to make the script work. Where should I put it so that it works?

Open the map file with an archiver, go to /maps/singlemission_or_multiplayer/map_name/. Open the map.xdb file with Notepad, find the line <MapScript href=""/> and change it to <MapScript href="MapScript.xdb#xpointer(/Script)"/> and save. Add the MapScript.xdb file to the same folder with this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Script>
	<FileName href="MapScript.lua"/>
	<ScriptText/>
</Script>

And the MapScript.lua file, into which you need to write the script.

I think I did everything right, but it doesn't work. I inserted everything, wrote everything, but there's no effect.

The script is written incorrectly:
Instead of

Loose(Player, 1)

it should be

Loose()
-- or --
Loose(1)

Everything else is done correctly.

If the map is intended for single-player, it's worth renaming the RMG folder to SingleMissions; otherwise, it will be displayed in the multiplayer map menu.

Thank you very much.

Should I create a new file for each new script?
