Vuen's D&D trigger question

[Rakaesa]

Okay, so i'm making a map like Vuen's D&D And i've actually made a few threads with questions for the maps. One of which was the script to right click and spawn units. I had done over 100 scripts, and then a guy showed me a script that could do all the units in 1 script. But now, my question is, is there a way to do one trigger for "Player 1 red types "Footman" as an exact match", etc. You know what i'm getting at. You say a unit name without actually selecting the unit in the spawn area, and it lets you spawn that unit. Do I have to do a seperate script for each unit (I don't think so), or is there a trigger that can do all of them in one?

A Footman is not a Ghoul...

Er, I never mentioned a ghoul anywhere in there?..

lol its me again
player 1 types chat message ur unit
set Spawn_Unit (ur unit type var) = ur unit

I dont know an easy way to do this.. this one would work but it would basicly mean you need a new trigger for each unit
tho i supose i could find an easier way ill get back if i do

 

[Rakaesa]

Yeah I was hoping I could find a way to do it without doing one script for each unit, like with variables or something. For my normal unit spawning I had done one for each unit, but then a guy showed me a script that allowed me to click any neutral unit and it would save whatever unit I clicked IF it was neutral, as the Unit_Type variable. So I didn't have to make one for each unit, just one script.

 

[Opa]

Since you are using Textstrings, it will not work for multiple Units since "Footman" is not equal to "Ghoul".

 

[Rakaesa]

Ah, I know what you're getting at, but there may still be a way to do it with variables or a shortcut you don't know about like the other guy had shown me with my script?

No.

i think hes rite.. im looking at the editor rite now.. and for player chat messages.. the closest thing i can find it convert unit type to string.. but that requires a specific unit type.. hmmm

• Player Message
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing (String((Random level -1 creep unit-type))) as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Unit_Type[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = (Unit-type((Entered chat string)))

if they are neutral hostile then that MITE work.. but i reallllllly dout it

 

[Rakaesa]

Hold on, let me try it (I'm working on map as we talk about this)

 

[laxperson808]

im pretty sure it wont work becus its RANDOM creep unit type.. which means that the game will say i want the creep type of creep X and u want Y and the next time the games wats Y and u want Y THEN it will work.. but.. idk for sure

 

[Rakaesa]

Nope, apparently doesn't work. I'll keep looking through the same type of trigger you did though..

 

[laxperson808]

i dont think theres a way to do it in GUI.. Vuens is all jass... so there might be someone who can give you the jass trigger for it....
the eaiset thing is to go through and just make 1 trigger for each unit.. (or ask for jass help lol)

 

[Rakaesa]

DUDE I'M A GENIOUS, I JUST DID IT LOL.

Event
Player 1 red types a chat message containing (Name of No Unit) as An Exact match

Actions
Set Unit_Type=(Unit-type((Entered chat string)))

I tested my map and it works PERFECTLY! Any unit name I say and then right click where I want it, the real unit appears. Footman, knight, satyrhellcaller, etc. Can I get a high five for geniousness?

 

[laxperson808]

lol sure xD nice job dude (btw i was the other guy who fixed ur script prob i think) lol

 

[Rakaesa]

Yeah I know you fixed my other script prob, I remember you lol. Oh, and, Opa, let this be a lesson to you. You aren't the most pro person here. I just found the correct trigger and proves you wrong. Don't be a know it all and never say never.

Depends wether you are English or French.

 

[Rakaesa]

Er, what? I purposely mess up the grammar of one word and you try to insult me with it, even though my other grammar is practically perfect? Dude, first you put down a trigger which I find a way to do, and now you're trying to insult me because I proved you wrong. I'd be shutting up if I were you.
