Non Melee Victory and Defeat

[Unregistered]

I have made a real good map with advanced triggers.... I am a computer programmer so I pretty much can figure out most of OOP. Im not trying to toot my own horn or anything I just don't want to sound stupid or look like I am an idiot when I ask this question because I am sure the answer is real simple and I just over looked it. Here it goes.....

My map is non melee and I can not figure out how to trigger defeat for the player with no more units or buildings and trigger victory for the other player. I was able to do this in starcraft easy but I can't figure it out in WC3. There are obvious triggers to use and I have tried them but when I kill all the opposing players nothing happens.

Thanks for all your input.

event:
unit owned by player 1 dies (repeat for other players)

action

if (number of units owned by (owner of dying unit) matching (matching unit is alive equal to true) equal to 0) then do (game - play defeat for (owner of dying unit))

Well, how to count allied structures in? If you want to avoid a variable of all structures counted "every 0.15 seconds"?

This would run the trigger as a one shot.. after five seconds.. you surely meant it to be periodically didnt you?

EDIT: Wait, what did you mean with that trigger anyway???!

Yeah my mistake >.<

Don't the default melee triggers include an action that does exactly this?

And if you want to customize it?

If you want only player 3, 4 and 5 to lose when they have no more buildings?
