i have a map, obviously, and in my map, you start off with a worker unit...the worker unit trains/makes another units/buildings..

player 1,2,3,4,5 and player 11 are allies, with player 11 being computer
player 6,7,8,9,10 and player 12 are allies with player 12 being computer

when the player 1,2,3,4,5's worker finishes construction on the buildings, the buildings becomes player 11's.. and this is fine.. but the units part don't work well...

i need the same thing to happen to the units that were built for both teams
right now the players control the units, i don't want that, i want the player 11 and player 12 to control their respective units...

i currently have (free-hand):

Trigger:
  • robot
    • events
      • a unit finishes training a unit
    • conditions
      • unit-type of trained unit equal to robot
    • actions
      • change ownership of last created unit to player 11
      • set point = center of enemy base
      • order last created unit to move to point
      • point being removed...


see for structures, it is
events
a unit finishes construction
conditions...

i know the actions are working fine, because the way my map was setup before it worked, now i changed few things, to make things better, and now it doesn't work..

so my question to you is.. what goes in the event that applies to units being built
i tried finishes construction, finishes training... it doesn't work..

try this

Trigger:
  • Untitled Trigger 001
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit enters ally base <gen>
    • Conditions
      • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to robot
    • Actions
      • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in ally base <gen> matching ((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Rifleman)) and do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To (Center of Noob Zone <gen>)
          • Unit - Change ownership of (Picked unit) to Player 11 (Dark Green) and Retain color

I just tried it out and this seems to work:

Trigger:
  • Untitled Trigger 001
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
    • Conditions
      • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Footman
    • Actions
      • Unit - Change ownership of (Trained unit) to Player 11 (Dark Green) and Change color


I think since you are using trained, triggering and created unit is throwing off your triggers. I think your trigger should be:

Trigger:
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
    • Conditions
      • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to robot
    • Actions
      • Unit - Change ownership of (Trained unit) to Player 11 (Dark Green) and Change color
      • set point = center of enemy base
      • order last Trained unit to move to point
      • point being removed...


see if that works

hmm, i'll try that..
i been using last created unit..

edit: no it doesn't work..
here is the trigger...

Trigger:
  • Robot4T1
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Finishes training a unit
      • Unit - A unit owned by Player 2 (Blue) Finishes training a unit
      • Unit - A unit owned by Player 3 (Teal) Finishes training a unit
      • Unit - A unit owned by Player 4 (Purple) Finishes training a unit
      • Unit - A unit owned by Player 5 (Yellow) Finishes training a unit
    • Conditions
      • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Robot
    • Actions
      • Unit - Change ownership of (Trained unit) to Player 11 (Dark Green) and Retain color
      • Set Point = (Position of Palace 0002 <gen>)
      • Unit - Order (Trained unit) to Attack-Move To Point
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Point)


the way it is setup in the unit editor is, in the worker unit,
under Techtree - Structure Built - Robot
Robot is another unit, not a building or a tower or anything like that..
when in game, the unit is made like how a structure is made.. but when finished, the unit doesn't do the action part of the trigger and just stands there and the player gets to controls it...

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
