Building Construction

[dragonhord]

Have my stuff working, problem is, I cant seem to figure out what the unit creating the tower is... Is it like triggering unit? Im not sure, anyone know which unit the builder is in this event?

What's your event?

 

[dragonhord]

A unit finishes/begins construction

Weird... I tested like, 10 different unit properties and not one of them worked... I suppose if you made the "Build" command an ability you could use

 Bob the Builder
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Build (or whatever)
    Actions
        Unit - Kill (Triggering unit)

Erm, how about:

Event-Unit Finished Construction
Action-Pick Every Unit in ((Region Around ((Unit-PositionofConstructedUnit)) matching condition ((Matching Unit Equal to: *OneofthePossibleBuilders* OR *Anotherpossiblebuilder* OR *Anotherpossiblebuilder*))

Not sure if that's possible, or will even work, but if nothing else works, you can try that...I suppose. Sorry I can't help any further.

pretty sure it's triggering unit

what do you want to do with the triggering unit though? Because if you wan to kill it, just classify the tower as an "ancient" You might have to do something to the builder, but I think you get what I am getting at

@ Siridon that's a lot of work for a lot of builders

Triggering unit points to building I tested it myself. Now to get unit who started building/ repair use trigger:

Unit Starts Construction or Repair
    Events
        Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Repair (Human)
    Actions
        Game - Display to (All players) the text: (Name of (Triggering unit))

This works right now for Human builders only. You could add all building abilites to condition and use or "casting ability equals to ability). Undead builders start to summon buildngs so maybe you can detect them with "starts summoning unit" event.
Another for when building is finished/ fully repaierd:

Unit Starts Construction or Repair
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
    Conditions
        (Ability being cast) Equal to Repair (Human)
        (Life of (Target unit of ability being cast)) Equal to (Max life of (Target unit of ability being cast))
    Actions
        Game - Display to (All players) the text: Unit finished const...

okay so where is this "Life of (Targeting unit)" condition at?

Sand, wood, thatch, clay, and stones are the raw materials and metal, glass and cement, tiles, and paint are the man-made products, you just need all these for your building construction!
