Building capturing

So how can I do a trigger that lets me to capture a building/area? Im making a map where is 6 Control Points, and you have to capture them all to win. And the building/area must be able to capture, if the opposite team owns it.

Thanks already.

a unit comes within 200 of YOURBUILDING
c

a
change owner of YOURBUILDING to (owner of(triggering unit/enterning unit)

this would ofcourse become awkward when 2 players are near one building...

you could give a little more info...

If its something where you select the building to control it, you could base it off Charm.

Sorry for the fairly late reply. The code I created may be a bit lengthy but is mostly worth it, take out what you don't need. I like to oversupply. Anyway, heres the code. I attached a map with the triggers in it for copy/paste purposes only, it is not a demo.

Take Point A
Code: 
Take Point A
    Events
        Unit - A unit comes within 200.00 of Guard Tower 0000 <gen>

            If - Conditions

Notice! The last line here you'll have to change to be based on your player scheme.

Let me know if this code doesn't work, I'll try to fix it.

@Zeratuel: Try inserting some loops in there, lengthy codes can be reduced with loops. :D

I probably should. I never really got too comfortable with loops because I hardly ever use em.

Ty very much! :) I havent got time to test 'em yet, but I think I will do it today.

Edit: More information about what im looking for:
So I need trigger that you can only capture few buildings/areas, not all of the buildings, also only heroes should be able to capture them, and if possible, as more allied heroes there is, the faster building/area will be captured.

Hmm I dunno if this is what your looking for but...

Event:Unit is attacked
Condition:Life of (Triggering Unit) Equal to or Lesser than (Health)
:Unit Type of (Attacked Unit) Equal to (Control Point?? Whatever the name of your building is.)
Actions:Change owner of (Attacked Unit) to Owner of (Attacking Unit) and change color.
:Set life of (Attacked Unit) to (Value.)

This will basicly make it so if the specific building is attacked and goes below % health it will change ownership to the attacking player and its health back to max. I'm not sure about the hero thing but I hope this is what you need.

if your planning on using my system, just go to the capture trigger, and under the Unit Group - Pick All units in (forgot what group) then theres an IF/THEN/ELSE

just remove all the other conditions and add, Unit is a hero.

and for certain buildings, you can modify the 1st few triggers to exclude some buildings. for example... make the buildings you want capture-able have a point value of 1000, then in the building initialize triggers, add a condition where point value of building is 1000, then only the ones you want will be captureable.

I think your trigger is way too complicated for me :/

It works, if not many units arent attacking it. If theres like 10 units attacking it, and I set it to change team when hp is below 50, then it gets destroyed.

Events:When a unit dies
Conditions: Dying unit equals to (Unit)
Actions:Create 1 (Unit) for Owner of Killing Unit facing Blah blah non important

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
