Forgive the obvious new-ness of this question, but I've been reading tutorials and searching these fora but nothing tells me exactly what I need to make this trigger work correctly.
Rather than bore you with my bad coding (because I can't even remember how many variations and combinations I've tried) I'll just say what I want to happen.
When I make maps, I always like to put in little extra goodies. In this one in particular, there is a Forest Troll hut in a creep camp. If a player decides to destroy it, what I would like to happen is for one Troll headhunter (presumably he was asleep inside or what have you) to pop out/be created/whatever, say, "Okay, I guess I work for you now," and become a unit that is selectable and controllable by the player in question, regardless of the race they are playing (i.e. this troll hut destroyed by Night Elves would now have a newly-acquired very loyal Troll on their team) but otherwise an ordinary Troll spear-thrower, just like one a player using the Orcs would create. Kind of like when you first acquire them in the tutorials, or like when you buy an otherwise-untrainable unit from a mercenary camp. Is this description clear enough?
I know I'm missing something completely essential because I can get as far as a Troll popping up and delivering the message, but it remains unselectable no matter what I try...
Any help would be mucho appreciado...
P.S. SO glad I stumbled on this site - it has helped me stumble less often when creating maps (which is almost as much fun for me as playing the game itself)
