Creating a unit for the owner of another unit.

[Surferkid993]

So I have this trigger and ive tried 3 things. I need a trigger that every 15 seconds of the game if a type of unit is in a region create a type of unit for the owerner of the first unit. I've tried:

Red1
Events
Time - Every 15.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Unit-type of (Random unit from (Units in Red1 <gen>))) Equal to Bear
Then - Actions
Unit - Create 1 Bear for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Center of Red <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
Else - Actions
Do nothing

Didn't create any units.

Red1
Events
Time - Every 15.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Unit-type of (Random unit from (Units in Red1 <gen>))) Equal to Bear
Then - Actions
Unit - Create 1 Bear for (Matching Unit) at (Center of Red <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
Else - Actions
Do nothing

Did'nt make any units. Then I did it just to create it for player 1(red) so I know that that is the part I messed up. What do I use to do this?

(Unit-type of (Random unit from (Units in Red1 <gen>))) Equal to Bear


the random part shouldn't be random...it should be any unit from units in Red1 <gen>

hoped that helped..

might not be right but try it out and tell me if it worked

matching unit is only for trigers using "unit" events

> matching unit is only for triggers using "unit" events

"matching unit" is for "pick every unit in ... matching <some test with 'matching unit'"

 

[AceHart]

I'd try a condition like this:

((Units in <Region> matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to <some unit here>)) is empty) Equal to False

 

[Surferkid993]

I dont see were to get units in region, all I can find is random units from unit group, units in region.
And how do i get two equal to's.

 

[AceHart]

I used:

New condition:
Boolean condition
Unit group - Unit group is empty
Units in region matching condition.
The "match" being a "unit-type comparison"

 

[Surferkid993]

wow that confused me.
what do you mean by:
Units in region matching condition.
The "match" being a "unit-type comparison"

 

[Surferkid993]

This is what i think you said to do but it dont get the second part:

Red1
Events
Time - Every 15.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
((Units in Red1 <gen>) is empty) Equal to False
(Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Bear
Then - Actions
Unit - Create 1 Bear for (Matching player) at (Center of Red <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
Else - Actions
Do nothing

Is this waht you ment?

 

[AceHart]

Once you have the "unit group is empty", you are given a couple
choices for what exactly the group would be.
One of the functions offered is "units in region matching condition"...

 

[Surferkid993]

I tested it out and that didn't work.(not what you just said the thing before it.)

 

[Surferkid993]

I found units in region but not units in region matching condition. NM found it

 

[Surferkid993]

It didnt work!

Red1
Events
Time - Every 15.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
((Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Bear)) is empty) Equal to False
Then - Actions
Unit - Create 1 Bear for (Matching player) at (Center of Red <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
Else - Actions
Do nothing

 

[AceHart]

"Playable map area" might be a bit big...

More importantly though, "matching player" does not exist!


Hm...
After re-reading your first post here, I guess you're actually looking for something like this:

Events
    Time - Every 15.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
    Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in Region 1 <gen> matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Bear)) and do (Actions)
        Loop - Actions
            Unit - Create 1 <unit> for (Owner of (Picked unit)) at (Random point in Region 2 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees

Which does:
For every "Bear" in some region, its owner gets a unit somewhere.

 

[Surferkid993]

yes that is what i want, but were do you find: Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in Region 1 <gen> matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Bear)) and do (Actions)

All I can get is: Pick every unit in (Units in Region 1 <gen>) and do (Actions)

NM I got It

 

[AceHart]

There where you found "units in region", should also be a "units in region matching condition".
At least, I do see on here

 

[Surferkid993]

Yup I got it and i works beautifuly thank you so much!
