I have a leader board that records kills and adds 1 every time a unit dies.

Unit Kills
Events
Unit - Any Unit dies
Local Variables
Conditions
(Owner of (Killing unit)) != (Owner of (Triggering unit))
Actions
Variable - Modify Kills[(Owner of (Killing unit))]: + 1
Leaderboard - Set Kill Board item text at column 2 and row (Owner of (Killing unit)) to (Text(Kills[(Owner of (Killing unit))]))

It does what its means to apart from when a zergling turns to a baneling. I get a trigger error saying "trying to access an element passed the end of an array"

Can anyone think of how i can get around this? :)
 
You could add another condition which checks if the killing units exists:
(Killing Unit) != No Unit
 
I've looked into this some more and found that the Zergling > Baneling morph isn't actually a morph. What happens is the zergling trains the baneling in much the same way as a barracks trains a marine, and then when the training is complete, the zergling is killed. This explains why the unit dies event runs when your zergling is morphed into a baneling. When the zerging dies, the killing player is player 16 (which doesn't actually exist). So what you can do is create a condition which checks if the killing player is player 16
(Owner of (Killing Unit)) != 16

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.

    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/

    What do you think Tom?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    I will have to get used to this.
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    The latest news feed looks good
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I would like to see it again like Ghan had it the first time with pagination though - without the pagination that view will not work but with pagination it just might...
