I want a building to gradually give Wood + Gold..

[Furdy]

For a custom map, wanting a building I can build which will give, say, 10g and 10w every 5 seconds

I am a bit of a n00b at this and can't figure it out for the life of me. I tried making an edited version of an Entangled gold mine since it had a "gold per interval" variable but it does not work

Should I be using triggers?

Any help appreciated to the max :3

Edit: It is important that you only get resources while the building exists

this is a realy easy one to configure at your own will

Money
    Events
        Time - Every 5.00 seconds of game time
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Storage)) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Player - Add 10 to (Owner of (Picked unit)) Current gold
                Player - Add 10 to (Owner of (Picked unit)) Current lumber

Thanks a lot, i'll give that a go

Okay, mine reads:

Resource Building
Events
Time - Every 5.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Troll Mine)) and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
Player - Add 10 to (Owner of (Picked unit)) Current gold
Player - Add 10 to (Owner of (Picked unit)) Current lumber

Where am I going wrong? ;_;

(Doesn't work)

In the condition, you need to use Matching unit instead of triggering unit.

And you have to include those last two lines of the triggers within the Loop - Action part.

Yup. The trigger leaks also. And it runs every 5 seconds. Which is bad

They are. He just hasn't used code tags and the spaces are taken away.

Maybe also add "matching unit is alive equal to true" to the condition? Because I don't know if picking units includes dead ones?
