Hi, this is my trigger and I will explain the trigger and what help I need.

Triggers function is: when you take your hero for example player 2 and walks to a place where there is a region then when you stand there your hero should get 1 exp every 2 seconds and you gain 3 gold every 2 seconds.

But the problem is that this trigger doesn't work, it doesn't give any exp or gold to me and my hero is added as to melee not as a custom hero and lvl it's lvl is 1 so I would have noticed if any exp were given or Gold.

I have tried to change All "Entering Unit" in this trigger to "Triggering Unit" with no further sucess.

Trigger:
  • Money and Exp Region
    • Events
      • Time - Every 2.00 seconds of game time
    • Conditions
      • (Money and Exp Region <gen> contains (Entering unit)) Equal to True
      • ((Entering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • Actions
      • Hero - Add 1 experience to (Entering unit), Hide level-up graphics
      • Player - Add 3 to (Owner of (Entering unit)) Current gold



So anyone that feel that they have any soloution on my problem with this trigger that they want to share with me? Please do :)

you should save the unit in some variable in the trigger with the event <unit enter in region>

THEN use the variable in this trigger...

entering unit > event every 2. seconds, entering wheres?

theres no entering unit :)

Alright, the trigger doesn't work because: You've used "(Entering unit)" for both conditions and actions, while the event (Time - Every 2.00 seconds of game time) doesn't have any "(Entering unit)s". :p

"(Entering unit)" is only usable in triggers with events such as "Unit enters a region".

What you need to do is pick every hero unit in the region every 2 seconds and add the gold and experiance to the picked unit.

The trigger:
Trigger:
  • Amg gimme exp n gold!
    • Events
      • Time - Every 2.00 seconds of game time
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Set Unit_Group = (Units in Exp Region &lt;gen&gt; matching (((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) is A Hero) Equal to True))
      • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Unit_Group and do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Hero - Add 1 experience to (Picked unit), Show level-up graphics
          • Player - Add 3 to (Owner of (Picked unit)) Current gold
      • Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_Unit_Group)

Variables:
- Unit_Group is a unit group variable... :O
- Exp Region is the region that you use.

=======Dumb little bonus thing because I was bored=======
Another nice thing you can add, especially if you've got a lot of trigger running, is make a trigger that turns on or off the periodic trigger in order to reduce lag and such.
An example of this would be:
Make sure the 'Amg gimme exp n gold!' trigger has Initialy on disabled, afther that use:
Trigger:
  • Start
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit enters Exp Region &lt;gen&gt;
    • Conditions
      • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • Actions
      • Trigger - Turn on Amg gimme exp n gold! &lt;gen&gt;
      • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)

Trigger:
  • End
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit leaves Exp Region &lt;gen&gt;
    • Conditions
      • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • Actions
      • Set Unit_Group = (Units in Exp Region &lt;gen&gt; matching (((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) is A Hero) Equal to True))
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Number of units in Unit_Group) Equal to 0
        • Then - Actions
          • Trigger - Turn on Start &lt;gen&gt;
          • Trigger - Turn off Amg gimme exp n gold! &lt;gen&gt;
        • Else - Actions
      • Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_Unit_Group)

Variables:
- Same as above.
=======/Dumb little bonus thing because I was bored=======

And that's basicly every little thing I could think of for this trigger, hope it helped and let me know if some things are unclear. :p

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.

    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before

    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled
