Is there any way to skip remaining actions in a different trigger?

[X-maul]

I got a trigger that will repeadetly spawn units and send them to attack another unit, but if the attacked unit dies, I want to stop the trigger from running by skipping remaining actions, but I cant do it from within the trigger. So I need to use another trigger with the correct events and conditions, and skip the remaining actions from in there.
Is this possible, and if it is, then how?

I don't know if there's a nicer way, but in lack of other suggestions you could always have a global boolean variable and an if-check in the spawn trigger that skips remaining actions if the boolean is true.

Then to make that trigger skip remaining actions, set the boolean to true.

hmm, well the problem is that the way it works is that it got a wait action that waits untill the amount of units in a unit group is 0, and then goes on.
And if my unit dies before the wait is over, it should skip the remaining actions.

Dont you know of any custom script that might be able to solve this?

event: any unit dies
condition: (Triggering unit) == *any method of determining the unit. e.g. unit type
action: Trigger - Stop all instances of (your trigger)
I haven't tried but this will kill the trigger once the unit in question dies. Problem with this is if you have multiple instances of the trigger it might(not sure) stop it all.

no need variables and hard stuff...

just stop all instances of trigger and run the trigger again by antoher trigger

(yes mister X-Maul, copy my text)

I just came up with another method - I'll simply put a boolean varaible that will be set to true if the game is lost, and then have a if then else action that runs a skip remaining actions, if the boolean is set to true.

EDIT: I didnt know of that Stop all instances of TRIGGER. It was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you Ghin

well, it's not that I do not appriciate your help, but your post was posted 2.5 hours later than his, and they practically said the same. So to me it counts as if Ghin helped me, but thanks for trying though

I tried to remove my post after I saw Ghin's post but can't remove a post, I could only edit it to '0'
