In range, Change to hostile.

[Grags_1977]

ok, I'm trying to make my Hostile units Passive until a player gets too close.
So far i've not been able to figure out a decent way to do this without doing a trigger for every single hostile unit in the map.

Any ideas?


EDIT: Example

• Blah
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit comes within 500.00 of PASSIVEUNIT
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Change ownership of PASSIVEUNIT to Neutral Hostile and Change color

I think you can try:

Trigger 01:

• Trigger01
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters (Playable map area)
  • Conditions
  • <Your conditions>
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Add to Trigger02 <gen> the event (Unit - A unit comes within 500.00 of (Triggering unit))

Trigger 02:

• Trigger02
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Change ownership of (Triggering unit) to Player 1 (Red) and Change color

Or you can use Timers and make a periodic check.

You could make the units Rescuable, then use the A unit Is rescued event to make it hostile.

• Hostility
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is rescued
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Change ownership of (Triggering unit) to Neutral Hostile and Change color

Thank you both. Went with KaerfNomekops Idea. Worked a treat thanks a lot!

EDIT: Hmm how does one give rep these days?
