Creep Respawn Problem (+rep)

[United]

I have two questions. My first question is probably pretty simple: How can you make creeps less aggressive? IE. I have two zones of creeps, with a wall in-between. When I attack one group, the other walks around the wall to attack, as well. How can I change this?


My second question is a bit more complicated: My creep respawn system does not work. In the editor I placed creeps where I want them to originally be. My triggers are like this:

Events - Unit - Nerubian - Spiderling 1 0024 <gen> Dies
Conditions - None
Actions - Wait 30.00 seconds
Hero - Instantly revive (Triggering unit) at (Random point in Nerubian Spawn 1 <gen>), Show revival graphics

My creeps are heroes. Some of my creeps respawn, but the majority do not. What can I do to fix this? Whoever can answer my question will recieve rep.

For respawn, you can make aregion that respawns dead units:

Events:
Unit dies
Conditions:
Dying unit equal to Nerubian spiderling
Actions:
Wait 30 seconds
Revive dying unit instantly at region <gen>

Saiza, next time use the Quote button, and didn't you say it's time to sleep?
EDIT: oh, you ARE going offline...and use the edit button, too, don't double-post

for the attacks past the wall part try lowering the target aquisiton range, and for the revive, use the triggers already posted

.

yeye, I diddent do that becouse im so sleepy

Oh and yes, I am going to sleep, it's just that when I said it... I feelt that I needed my daily cup of tea before i was going to sleep, so I putted on tea water and then I searched some more here

Thanks Slapshot, but I already tried the Acquisition range. Maybe I just didn't do it right. I'll check that out.

As for the respawning, I don't want to create a new unit at the dying point of that unit because then players will lure the creeps to a fountain and abuse it. As for creating new units, that screws up the event because after the initial unit dies, the trigger for specific unit event won't fire. I can't find the plain "Revive dying unit" in the Unit section of triggers. Is it order a unit (an altar) to revive them? or what?

 

[Slapshot136]

you can try creating a region for creeps and makeing them respawn in a random point in that region to stop people from lureing em to a fountain

This is exactly what I'm trying to do, but it isn't working.

 

[Slapshot136]

k il guide u thru it

first make a region (region editor, add region)

then make this trigger

event - a unit dies
conditions - unit type of dying unit = (w/e)
actions -
wait (w/e sec)
unit create 1 unit of (unit type of triggering unit) at a random point within region (name of region u made)

and it should work

 

[United]

No, that won't work because I'm using a "Specific Unit Event" trigger, not a generic one.

edit: This is why I need to revive the creep, instead of creating new ones.
