Destroy Building - Help

[Linear88]

I have a building with an ability called Destroy Building.

However, when I share units with another player, that player can click on my building and destroy it using Destroy Building.

How do I restrict the other player from casting the ability, and only allowing access to the owner of the building to cast it?

Help would be appreciated, thank you!

maybe add a condition and check which player is the triggering player and only trigger the destruction if the owner is the triggering player.

im hot sure whether this is possible


if its not then try this: when spell is cast, create dialog for owner of casting unit that will check if he realy wants to destroy the building

 

[Raizn]

try this. but dont know if it works.

• player check
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Triggering player) is an ally of (Owner of (your building))) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Do nothing
      • Else - Actions
        • -------- destroy building --------

so your saying you and another player are shairing units. but its your building and you dont want your partner to destroy your building?

try doing this.
events

Player Selects a unit

actions

set selected unit to MINE
if

Triggering player is an ally of Owner of MINE
Triggering Player is not equal to Owner of MINE

then

Remove "Destroy Building" from MINE

Else

do nothing



Sorry if these are worded wrong i dont have access to WE atm

That would make the ability disappear if someone who is not the owner tries to use it.
Use this:

• AntiHax
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit uses an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to (Destroy Building)
  • Actions
    • Player - Force UI Key (C)

  • Actions
    • Player - Force UI Key (C)

Its Game - Force UI Key

This is probably easier anyway:

• Game - Force Player 1 (Red) to press Escape/Cancel

Every building has the ability Destroy Building.

@azareus: It doesn't have any conditions on who the casting user is.

I've tested to find out who (Triggering Player) is, and it turned out to be the owner of the building, and not me, which causes this condition to fail:

((Triggering player) is an ally of (Owner of (Casting unit))) Equal to True

Placing these together causes it to always be true and execute Destroy Building:

And - All (Conditions) are true
    Conditions
        ((Triggering player) is an ally of (Owner of (Casting unit))) Equal to True
        (Triggering player) Not equal to (Owner of (Casting unit))

Would be easier to do

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -destroy as An exact match
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -destroy as An exact match
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -destroy as An exact match
    • Player - Player 4....
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units currently selected by (Triggering player)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Owner of (Picked unit)) Equal to (==) (Triggering player)
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Explode (Picked unit)
          • Else - Actions
