Hey I used
event- period time event 10 seconds
condition
action- units( owned by) Player 12)) patrol random point in playable map area
but the problem is that I spawned 4 units, and they all go to the same area
im wondering if I can do the same thing, but on each unit rather than all of them, without making a trigger for each of them, please help
any questions about my question you can just question me about okay?<3

can you do this for me, cause this is too complicated =(
if you go to Spawn Heroes Attacker, and Wave 1, you'll see the unit I want to patrol, if you need that
and under Ai category, you can find the trigger I want you to use
thanks, I really suck, send it to me when you're done

Assign Custom values to all of the units, assign them to unit arrays according to their custom value, then put a loop in doing your actions.

Well, this is my method...

 

[Renendaru]

You do realize that is the EXACT same way I said.. You just did the shorter way of doing it, except yours won't loop right.

Yeah, you're probably right; I'm not good with loops myself.

This may work.

Is the First action in Watermelon's code a condition or an action?

Ignore my code, Renendaru's trigger is more efficient.
If you still want to use my lousy triggering, then it's an action.
Look for "Set Variable".

 

[TooSlowFcker]

wha does he mean execution count?
action
Unit - Set the custom value of (Triggering unit) to (Execution count of (This trigger)
wow didnt look hard enough just found it

 

[watermelon]

For the execution count, it was Trigger - Trigger Execution Count.
Try scrolling down more.

 

[TooSlowFcker]

Yeah how do I find the
set custom value= eexecution of(trigger))

CV is actually an integer variable. You'll need to create one yourself.
You might want to learn more about Trigger basics...

well I know about the basics I just dont know the complicated stuff
how do I do that though?

 

[Renendaru]

Ok, Open Trigger Editor, see the yellow X at the top of the window? Click it. Then, say create new variable. Assign a name, any name. Then set it's classification to integer, and voila!

how do i do set unit - custom value to triggering unit = trigger

 

[LightChaosma]

in the actions, go to the sections units, scroll about 2/3 down, you see set costum value of unit. set the unit to the unit you wish to have this costum value attached to, then set the 0 to your variable, shoosable in the top of the window that pops up
