Newbie Questions *TD*

Hi I'm newb here and in World Editor.
I'm making a TD. I have now a lot of triggers and problems ;D I have a hope You can help me :)
1. I have a trigger which instantly move the creeps to next area (from Player 1 to Player 2, Pl2 to Pl3, Pl3 to Pl4 and Pl4 to Pl1) All mobs must done only one loop around a map. I have a 8 Regions (start*4 and end*4) and... in All players is noproblem but in Red... ugh... creeps dont wanna go to Red-End region. They wanna go to Purple-End Region T_T Yellow is OK but next creeps (orange green and pink) isn't. There are my triggers in red area.

"PickAllCreepsInGroups"
Events - Every 1second of the game
Condition - nothing
Actions:
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in(Units in RedAttack) Owned by Player 5 (Yellow) and do (UnitGroup - Add (PickedUnit) to AttackRed
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in(Units in RedAttack) Owned by Player 6 (Orange) and do (UnitGroup - Add (PickedUnit) to AttackRed
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in(Units in RedAttack) Owned by Player 7 (Green) and do (UnitGroup - Add (PickedUnit) to AttackRed
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in(Units in RedAttack) Owned by Player 8 (Pink) and do (UnitGroup - Add (PickedUnit) to AttackRed
etc for all areas.
---------
Trigger - Run Red(ignoring Conditions)


Yaa... units in groups. Now trigger Red

Events - Nothing
Conditions - Nothing
Actions:
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in (RedAttack) and do (Unit - Order(Picked Unit) to Move (Random point in RedEnd)

What isn't good in these triggers?

2: Spawning - I want to do a Spawn mobs when players kill every creep or when isn't anymore creep on the map.
How i Can do it?


I have a hope You can Help me and BIG sorry for my VERY BAD English:( (I have only 14 years lol and I'm from Poland)

Ohhh ya... i forgot - I USED A SEARCH!! :D Sorry but many forums dont like Non searching users ;d

Use code tags. Read the rules.
Code: 
"PickAllCreepsInGroups"
Events - Every 1second of the game
Condition - nothing
Actions:
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in(Units in RedAttack) Owned by Player 5 (Yellow) and do (UnitGroup - Add (PickedUnit) to AttackRed
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in(Units in RedAttack) Owned by Player 6 (Orange) and do (UnitGroup - Add (PickedUnit) to AttackRed
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in(Units in RedAttack) Owned by Player 7 (Green) and do (UnitGroup - Add (PickedUnit) to AttackRed
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in(Units in RedAttack) Owned by Player 8 (Pink) and do (UnitGroup - Add (PickedUnit) to AttackRed
etc for all areas.
---------
Trigger - Run Red(ignoring Conditions)
Well, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with that, except for its leakfull-ness and its non-efficiency.
Code: 
Events - Nothing
Conditions - Nothing
Actions:
UnitGroup - Pick every unit in (RedAttack) and do (Unit - Order(Picked Unit) to Move (Random point in RedEnd)
That leaks. Also, don't use random point; use Center of Region.
Code: 
What isn't good in these triggers?
  • They leak
  • They are inefficient
  • They could be combined into one trigger
  • They don't seem to make very much sense

Knight7770 said my triggers is leakfull - i know that because I'm only a newbie in WE T_T but the Triggers in other Players areas works, why?
Yellow in Red,Blue,Cyan and Purple goes normally, Orange in Blue,Cyan and Purple too. Green in Cyan and purple too and Pink ONLY in Purple ;/

In Player 1 Area is a cyan elipse - This is the spawn for creeps.

2 ways to spawn

there are two ways for spawning creeps in a TD. 1# you can have all the creeps in one area and make a trigger that when a certain round comes on it will move certain creeps in the region instantly to a point. (EG) event: round 1
action: move units instantly from region whatever to region whatever. make sure that you put a trigger that when a unit enters the TD region that they are issued the order to move.

2# second way. the second way is to create your wanted units already inside the TD region were it will order the units to move (EG) event: elaps time ## action: create ## of units for player ( wich ever your creeps are on )
at region ( your spawning region ) .



if you want i can do the triggers for you and see what your TD needs.

welp

all i can say is that with a mazing td there was going to be bugs which is unavodiable if your noob at td. if you need any help im making a td myself and i set it so every 60 sec move unit in region to certain point then you could make it so when thoose units enter the area they are teleporeted to that they move to next point ect. this is what i did and lol i sorta read your forum fast so i might be blabering but if your really stuck do this and if it dosent work... well hope you somehow get it working. Best of luck:thup:
