Ok, thanks for clearing that up for me - you deserve a pizza.

AceHart, as far as I can tell: Event Response - Trained Unit: When responding to a 'Finishes Training A Unit' unit event, this refers to the unit that was trained. I have tried using GetTrainedUnitType but since the unit has not finished training, it doesn't return anything.

Artificial, that only works for a unit that HAS BEEN TRAINED, not for a units that BEGINS TRAINING. Builder Bob, I can confirm that too - works like a charm. Thanks to Faust for the idea.

Artificial, that only works for a unit that has finished training, and as I mentioned above I need to figure out the unit type as soon as it STARTS to train. Faust, I the idea of using the order id should work. I'll hammer something out that's a bit more final and then let you know how it went.

That will get me the type of unit that has finished training, but I need to grab that unit type as soon as training starts.

I have a trigger that uses EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_TRAIN_START as it's event. There are 2 possible units that could be trained in order to trigger this event. What I need to know is, can I determine which unit has started its training? GetTriggerUnit() tells me which unit is doing the...

That's the thing though, even if I save, the map doesn't run when I hit the test button, it only goes to the game menu.

Ok, I reinstalled War3 and TFT as well as NewGen Pack v4c. Everything seems to be working now except for running test map (ctrl+f9). When I try to run test map, it just loads the TFT title screen and the map file it makes is unplayable unless I manually load TFT and run it as a custom map...

Just tried rebooting and nothing changed, I'm now in the process or reinstalling from the ground up. I'll let you know how that works out.

Just tried that fix, and nothing happened: worldedit.exe doesn't load or crash or anything.

Because I have a map that I have been working on for some time now that requires the use of Grimoir, Jass Helper and PJass.

I use Grimoire to launch world editor, but ever since the last war3 patch, worldedit.exe "encounters an error" and crashes every time I try to launch it. Anyone know if there is a work around for this?

ManyTimes and Flare, those are some good ideas. For ManyTimes first method, I might have to add some sort of bonus for every life stolen when a player is already at the max cap, other than that though, it's an interesting idea wirht exploring. Method 2 is also great since lives are constantly...

I edited mine too :P

EDIT: Ahh, I see what you are doing now and it's a bit different that what I'm looking for. What I want to do is normalize and reduce the number of lives so that there are not a extremely large number of lives left for only 2 players to fight over. Using your method, if 6 players were playing...
