How do I put a limit on the amount of certain buildings a player has?

Thanks, +rep for solution

How do I put a limit on the amount of certain buildings a player has?

Thanks, +rep for solution

simple
event a unit beging construction of X
cond: unit being constrctued is of TYPE=Barrack
action pick every unit matching type of barrack owned by owner of "constructed unit?(the one doing the construction);
Set variable[player number of owner of triggering unit]= number of picked building
if variable[player number of ......]=X
unit remove unit being constructed
refund the price.

there is probably a few way to do this to be honest.

 

[Avaleirra]

what kind of variable is it?

 

[Tyman2007]

I believe this exists

• Unit - Limit production of Building to #

his variable is an integer

 

[Avaleirra]

ok thanks! +rep to both of you, ill post if I have any problems

How do I do

number of picked building

in

Set variable[player number of owner of triggering unit]= number of picked building

 

[Tyman2007]

meaning, set variable = variable + 1

 

[Avaleirra]

I dont understand.... , could you write out a line for me please?

my pick every unit condition is not fully done as I dont think you needed more explanation on that.the pick every unit is missing the part "owned by owner of triggering unit"
to the post above me; ????????

 

[Avaleirra]

What kind of variable is INt? Is it an integer array?

 

[Yoshii]

What kind of variable is INt? Is it an integer array?

yes it is

 

[Avaleirra]

what kind of variable is group?

 

[Yoshii]

what kind of variable is group?

.. group variable array size 12; i named the variable specially by their type.

ok having a weird problem, one of the triggers work, the other doesnt :S


this one works

EDIT: nvm

 

[Avaleirra]

found a bug that players can take advantage of here is my trigger:

• genericfactorylimitred
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins construction
    • Unit - A unit Begins an upgrade
  • Conditions
    • ((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Generic Factory (red)) or (((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Tier 1 Caster (red)) or (((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Tier 1 Melee (red)) or (((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Tier 1 Ranged (red)) or (((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Tier 2 Caste
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Generic Factory (red))) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit Group - Add (Picked unit) to myunitgroup[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))]
        • Set Random_Data[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Number of units in myunitgroup[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))])
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • Random_Data[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] Equal to 8
          • Then - Actions
            • Animation - Play (Triggering unit)'s death animation
            • Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game
            • Game - Display to (All players) the text: (You can only have 7 factories, + ((Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit))) + was stupid enough to build more and waste his money. Loser.))
            • Unit Group - Remove all units of myunitgroup[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] from myunitgroup[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))]
          • Else - Actions

I tried modifying it like this but it didn't work. Players are still able to build the 7 generic factories, then upgrade lets say three, and then build 3 more factories...


I tried putting all the upgrades in the condition.

 

[TheCrystal]

And "Ands" into the Unit Group for the upgrade types.

 

[Avaleirra]

Sorry, dont understand what you mean

 

[TheCrystal]

Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Generic Factory (red))) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Generic Factory (blue))) and do (Actions)

Kind of stuff. Change the "Condition" in the Unit Group to And then add the Unit Types.
