To create a variable, go to the trigger editor. look at the top panel for a picture with like a V sort of shape. click on it and then click on V+ to add a varaible. simple!

Well, i want to create a trigger, so that if a unit comes withing range of a certain unit, they die. But in the trigger, for event,


Event:

Unit comes within 256.00 range of -UNIT-. How do i select the unit i want ?

 

[Mind]

You don't need variables for this. Click on the word "unit". Then on "select unit". If the unit isn't placed in the map yet, and if the player must create the unit himself, you can select options like "last created unit", "triggering unit" etc.

If you want a specific type of unit… (oops, that was actually your question) Choose "unit type" as variablen, and then select one.

sorry you can't do that event and pick a non-preplaced unit.

Off the top of my head, the only alternative is this:


Events
Time - Every 10.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
((some unit) is in (Units within 512.00 of (Position of (some unit)))) Equal to True
Then - Actions
do something
Else - Actions
do something


for that IF condition you need to do boolean comparison -> unit - unit in unit group -> units in range
