How do we get an event that uses "Any player"?

[MintJulep]

Like for example, I want a trigger that's like,

Events:
A player selects a unit.

Conditions:
(Triggering unit) equal to Unit 5050.

Actions:
Send to (All Players) the Quest Message: "This is working!"

The problem is, the only choices available for all the Player events are Player 1 (Red), Player 2 (Blue), Neutral Hostile, and so on. There's no "Any Player" function. I know a lot of maps are able to use triggers like this, like any RPG map where you click on an NPC and it talks to you.

well if all the players are allied to player 1 i think u can do this.

A player allied to player red 1 types message containing "start"



or you could make seperate triggers for each player

I don't see the "Players allied to Player x" function in the choices for the event; I think it only applies to anything using player groups...

You can't. You have to make a separate event for each player, ie:

Events
   Player 1 (Red) selects a unit
   Player 2 (Blue) selects a unit
   ...
Actions
  //Your actions

Another way is to add event. This would seem easy for some while some would prefer the method used in Post#4. Either way would work the same .

Event
 Map Initialisation
Condition
Action
 Player Group - Pick all players in All Players and do multiple actions
  Loop - actions
   Trigger - Add to Selection <gen> [del]to[/del] the event (Picked Player) selects a unit

Selection
 Event
 Condition
 Actions
  -Your actions-

Triggering Player = The selecting player
Triggering unit = Selected unit

Edit (For post below):
Lol... Fineeeee... Fixed it.... >.<

this is your answer


(Triggering Player) will give you the player

@Woot: Vypur's method will work just fine. It picks all players and adds those players into the event. It's the same as adding them in manually, but much shorter.
