if/then/else (trigger)

[MissKerrigan]

Hello,

I REALLY have no idea what's wrong with this trigger:

event: unit dies
condition: owner of unit is player 9 (computer)
actions:

if: unit has behavior boss (true)
then: modify player (killing player) add 25 minerals
else: modify player (killing player) add 5 minerals


So when I'm killing normal units I'm NOT getting any minerals, and ALSO not any text tag appears
I am SURE the bosses having a behavior boss on them and the normal units haven't
When I kill a boss, I get my 25 minerals and the text tag appears, this works

Can anyone please tell me what's going on here?

(this trigger should very well am I right?)

When a unit dies, it will no longer have the behavior. So it wont check as if the unit had the behavior. I would make the boss unit a hero unit (Check the hero flag) and make the condition check if the unit is a hero, instead.

but if I make it hero then an icon appears in right bottom of the screen

Only if you it's your unit. If it's player 15, you wont see it.

It's not working but fortunetaly I found some solution:

- I created a global variable of the type unit and called it boss
- as soon a boss comes, I store it in the variable
- now I just make an event that if the 'boss' dies, I get my 25 minerals and text tag +25 minerals

I don't know why, but it works now
