Trigger problems

[The-Maimer]

Ok, now I know that I'm not supposed to name things like that but I'm not very good with words.

Ok, my map is nearly finished, but I can't figure out how to change the starting recourses to what I want them to be. Wouldn't they be in game constants? But they aren't there. How do I change them?

The other is that I want to have an income trigger, how do I get it to give everyplayer setamount of gold every minute of gameplay?

 

[darkreapers]

for income, its a very simple trigger xD

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Time - Every 60.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player - Add 100 to Player 1 (Red) Current gold

 

[The-Maimer]

Thank you. How about the other one? Do you know how to change the Starting Recourses?

• Starting Gold
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.01 seconds
  • Conditions

    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Player - Set (Picked player) Current gold to 500(or how much u want)

Or put it in map inization as well.

 

[Komaqtion]

Yeah, use Map Initialization

And to make every player get income, use this:

• Player Income
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 60.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Player - Add 150 to (Picked player) Current gold

tyvm, thats works perfectly. Now I have one last problem. How do I get it so I can control everyone of my units with a button? say like, Mass Attack the enemy, how do I get it so I can do that?

 

[Angel_Island]

Use this action:

• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Player 1 (Red)) and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions

 

[The-Maimer]

Thank you for posting, and not to sound ungracious, but could you be a little more specific plz?

 

[Tyrulan]

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -select as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Player 1 (Red)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To (Center of (Playable map area))

 

[The-Maimer]

ok, I did exactly what you said but it doesn't work, It wants me to select a premade unit, there are none. The units spawn during the game, I want it to send them. I would also prefer if it wasen't a chat command, I'd prefer it it were an ability from a building.

 

[Scary Nachos]

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Repair (R)
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To (Center of (Playable map area))

Like that?

 

[Komaqtion]

For the first, use the event:

• Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability

second, it leaks, use this:

• Select and Order
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Select and Order
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Group = (Units owned by (Owner of (Triggering unit)) matching ((Matching unit) Not equal to (Triggering unit)))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Temp_Group and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To (Target point of ability being cast)
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Temp_Group)

This means that you have a point target ability, and it will order all units, beside the caster, owned by the owner of the caster to attack-move to the ability target point

 

[The-Maimer]

Set Temp_Group = (Units owned by (Owner of (Triggering unit)) matching ((Matching unit) Not equal to (Triggering unit)))

i cant find the command for Set Temp_Group. i have used the search function and it told me it didnt match any commands.

call DestroyGroup(udg_Temp_Group)

the editor also errored when i tried to save the rest of the trigger without the set temp group. that is probably because there is no group but im not sure.

 

[Komaqtion]

Yeah, Temp_Group is a Unit Group variable which has to be created. in the trigger editor just press ctrl+b and then click the green "X" ("New Variable...") and type in Variable Name:
Temp_Group (Case sensitive)
and then Variable type:
go down to Unit Group

Then use the action "Set Variable" and use your variable (Temp_Group) and it should work Use "Units in Range matching Conditions"

 

[Emu.Man00]

You need to add the variables in the variable editor (little yellow X)
Temp_Group being a unit group, and you also need to add a point variable if you want to remove the leaks.

• * Select and Order
  • o Events
    • + Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
  • o Conditions
    • + (Ability being cast) Equal to Select and Order
  • o Actions
    • + Set Temp_Group = (Units owned by (Owner of (Triggering unit)) matching ((Matching unit) Not equal to (Triggering unit)))
    • + Set Temp_Point = (Target point of ability being cast)
    • + Unit Group - Pick every unit in Temp_Group and do (Actions)
      • # Loop - Actions
        • * Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To Temp_Point
    • + Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Temp_Group)
    • + Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Temp_Point)

Also, the action for set is 'set variable' itll be near the top of list.

 

[Komaqtion]

Target point of ability being cast, doesn't leak

 

[Angel_Island]

Target point of ability being cast, doesn't leak

Why doesn't it leak? It is a point.

 

[Komaqtion]

I'm not sure why i said that actually XD but i don't know, i would believe it's a point already created when the ability is cast :S have no idea really if it leaks, sorry
