try:
EVENT: Generic Unit Event - A unit dies

CONDITION:
triggering unit is owned by player neutral hostile

ACTION
wait 60 seconds
Create unit type of triggering unit at position of triggering unit for player neutral hostile

thanks!!

 

[Mind]

You should use the "If/Then/Else (multiple functions)" action.

Actions:
    Wait 60.00 seconds.
    If
        [Boolean Comparison - Unit if fogged]
        ((dying unit) is fogged to (owner of (killing unit))
    Then
        [Unit - Create unit facing angle]
        Create 1 (unit-type of (dying unit)) at (position of (dying unit)) facing (facing angle of (dying unit)) angle
    Else
       [Trigger - Run trigger (checking conditions)]
       Run (this trigger) (checking conditions

I don't know if it works but I get the Idea, the thing is tho that when i had that on, the Units respawn moved to where they were dying. So after playing my map for a long time my units my units had moved like far away from where they originally were.


Do any1 know how i can make it so the respawn stays at the same place... Everytime the units dying they respawn at the place they were placed.

Make multiple arrays and one integer
Point Array
Unit Array
SysInt
Map Init, pick all units owned by player, add to Unit Array (pick all, set SysInt=SysInt+1 type thing)
Add Point to array as well
Add the event "SPECIFICUNIT dies" to another trigger
In that trig..
Wait X seconds
do a loop
loop Integer A 1 to SysInt
if unit is UnitArray[IntA] then
Create (UnitType of Triggering Unit) at PointArray[IntA] facing Random Degrees
Skip Remaining Actions - For top efficiency!

If you have a generic wait, every time you kill a unit it will restart the timer.

You can do it OverWhlem's way but I'm not sure that wait will work. Try it and see but even though it will trigger on specific units it will keep triggering if you keep killing.

I would use a Unit Group but that would respawn all units in the group after a set amount of time, but then you would have to know where you want you creeps to be and use points/regions

 

[TheOverWhelm]

The Wait will work.
And it will not restart the trigger if a unit dies, it will start a trigger that's exactly the same but running parallel (if not farther behind) then the other trigger.
You can do a Generic Unit Death, or add make a Unit Group, add all the units in the sys to it, then check if the dieing unit is in the group.

I stand corrected. I tested it and you're right

After working for a realy long time i got a trigger that works for just this, will post it here


First trigger:

• Revive Creeps 1 by 1
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • ((Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Neutral Hostile) and (((Triggering unit) is Summoned) Not equal to True)
  • Actions
    • Wait 20.00 seconds
    • Unit - Create 1 (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) for Neutral Hostile at ((Center of (Entire map)) offset by (Creep_X[(Custom value of (Triggering unit))], Creep_Y[(Custom value of (Triggering unit))])) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Set the custom value of (Last created unit) to (Custom value of (Triggering unit))

Secound:

• Revival System
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Neutral Hostile) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set Integer = (Integer + 1)
        • Unit - Set the custom value of (Picked unit) to Integer
        • Custom script: set udg_Creep_X[udg_Integer] = GetUnitX(GetEnumUnit())
        • Custom script: set udg_Creep_Y[udg_Integer] = GetUnitY(GetEnumUnit())

to be honest im not sure how that works. But well done if it does

I'm not sure if you guys noticed, but this thread is 7 years old. I doubt the thread owner, or indeed anyone who was around at the time, is still looking for a solution.
