Hello,

I've stumbled upon this code here on TheHelper and it works great, however I don't know how can I announce the spawned unit's location in such manner.

''Prime Ghoul has spawned on the left (region1) , help your allies'' or ''Prime Ghoul has spawned on the middle (region2) , help your allies'' or ''Prime Ghoul has spawned on the right (region3) , help your allies''

The code I'm using is this

Prime Ghoul has spawned on the left, help your allies


Trigger:
  • Random Region
    • Events
      • Map initialization
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Set Region[1] = Region 1 <gen>
      • Set Region[2] = Region 2 <gen>
      • Set Region[3] = Region 3 <gen>


Trigger:
  • Create Unit Random Region
    • Events
      • Time - Elapsed game time is 20.00 seconds
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Set TempPoint = (Center of Region[(Random integer number between 1 and 3)])
      • Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at TempPoint facing Default building facing degrees
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

You can use a string array
LocationName

which you initialize together with your regions as
LocationName[1] = "left"
etc.

Then you use an integer variable for the random number:

spawnRegion = Random Number...
TempPoint = Center of Region[spawnRegion]
...
Display Text : ... "needs help at the " + LocationName[spawnRegion]

hope that helps

Excellent, works as intended. Thanks for your help and sorry for the late reply.
