Hi,
What I want to happen is if a certain tpye of unit come within a different type of unit, the unit dies.
Something like this:

Tagged
Events
Unit - A unit comes within 175.00 of Hider 0002 <gen>
Conditions
(Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Tagger
Actions
Unit - Kill Hider 0002 <gen>
Unit - Kill Tagger 0000 <gen>
Wait 2.00 seconds
Unit - Remove Hider 0002 <gen> from the game
Unit - Remove Tagger 0000 <gen> from the game
Unit - Create 1 Tagger for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Random point in Region[1]) facing Default building facing degrees
Unit - Create 1 Hider for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at (Random point in Region[1]) facing Default building facing degrees
Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Triggering player)) + Is it, watch out!)

Okay my problem is here:
Events
Unit - A unit comes within 175.00 of *Hider 0002* <gen>

Because there are going to be multiple "Hiders" how do I set this to something like:
Unit - A unit comes within 175.00 of *Hider (as in, any Hider)* <gen>

I have added Unit Variables but it doesn't let me select them in: of Hider <gen>

Any ideas?

hmm

I think in that part, you can make it to look like this:

A unit comes within 175.00 of (units of type Hider).

Try and get that, im pretty sure it is possible ;)

Yeah I was sure you could get something like that aswell. I searched around in the Events but couldn't find anything.
I'll have another look and see if I find anything.
-Husky
 
Na, I can't find a unit-type. I have a perfect Variable for it but it won't let me select it. Please, I really, really need help on this.
-Husky

Also: How do you add signatures? Can''t find it in User Preferences.
 
you're gonna have to make the trigger over for as many hiders as you have.

so, you keep the trigger, only change hider0002 to a different hider say hider0003. so you have the trigger for all the hiders individually.

so, keep all the trigger, exept instead of hider0002, put a different hider.
 
Hah, I had already thought of that. But there's a catch why it wouldn't work.
Many times the Hider's die and ones with completely different Hider####.
E.g:
Hider0002 dies
but then he'd come back to life but his name would be something like:
Hider0019
then dies again and his name changes to something like:
Hider0054
Catch my drift?...

There may be a way to counter this and if anyone knows that would be awsome.
Cheers,

You don't necessarily have to kill them, I guess.
You could just change its owner to the player that found it,
then move it somewhere.

Click to expand...

Only cirten users (Map hosters), or Mods and Admins can use signatures.
 
Ok, as for the issue with being able to activate it if any of that type enters 175 of any one of them to destroy both. There is no way to do that without several regions (one for eatch hinder).

example,

E: a unit enters (region) (gen)
C: ( you may need it if anything elce becides thouse 2 units getting neer by)
A: do the destoying and whatnot here.

No, the reason you have the ability to is unknown to me.
 
Well that sucks... a lot. /the only way I think I could do it perfectly would be doing something like this:

When the Hider dies he changes form (well he changes into the tagger) unit and is randomly spawned in a random region.
Is there anyway to implement thse two together? Or do something very similar to that.
Cheers,
-Husky

P.S: sucks about the signature thing...
 
Hey, tell me every single dertail on how things should work for it and what goes by them and all the info you can think and I will make you the trigger for it.
 
hehe.

Senkin, you're so efficient. Anyone could get really stuck with triggers but not you lol.

I love my work :p

Psst: I will give you a secret. When im making triggers I look at every single trigger that I can use with what I have in mind, and I think about how it would react before I test it.

If its easier I could just send you the map.

Just tell me in detail what you need to have happen in the trigger(s) for what action.
 
Hmm, I do similar.
I set the triggers into plain english and put them together and see if it sounds right.
Well, shall I post the map up?
-Husky

EDIT: Okay you posted while I was posting. Here's the Details:
To put this simply: This is tag. When the tagger walks up to you, you become the tagger and the tagger becomes the hider.
The details:
I have got the following to work.
*Hider unit is approached by the tagger.
*Tagger gets very close and tags the hider and tags him.

Trigger Used for that:
Event - A unit comes withing 175 of Hider0002
Conditions - Unit Equal to Tagger
Actions:
Kill Tagger
Kill Hider
Remove Tagger
Remove Hider
Create 1 Tagger/Hider for Player 1 Red at Region (variable used).

Okay the tricky part is in the Event. Unit comes within 175 of Hider0002
I want that to be:
A unit comes within 175 of Hider (as in any Hider).

So thats pretty much it.
Any ideas?
-Husky
 
rofl, i try to do that:

Events - A unit comes within 350 of ogre 0021 <gen>

Conditions - none

Actions - Create special effect using (the disease cloud).
Play (the ogre farting sound).

When i tested, it kept farting and got a bit hard, so your mthod may only work for you lol.

apologies, i am starting to get off-topic.

    I think on the new one they did change it, but idk. I don't really care whatever the government is doing right now because it's consistently absurd. Like what is RFK doing in charge of health anything? I love the bear story because WTF was that, but also, pretty much every time he talks it's WTF. Like even his voice sounds microwaved

    The pyramid is fucking dumb as shit, no matter how you arrange it.
  • Varine Varine:
    It's actually remarkably easy to make mayonnaise though. Fun fact, it USED to kind of be a French mother sauce. I believe that Careme considered it one, it may have been aioli but that has also built a different meaning than it used to. An aioli is just mayonnaise I mixed with other shit typically, I didn't start it don't come at me
  • Varine Varine:
    It's very hard to do it on a large scale though
  • Varine Varine:
    Depending on how you pour the oil the consistency can vary wildly, but that's true for most emulsions. I can only make about two quarts at a time with my robo coup, and if I have to make several in series because I forgot to order it becomes really obvious even when I do it. We have to wait and mix them all together to make sure we have the same thing.
  • Varine Varine:
    Hollandaise is also kind of like that, emulsions require a very steady hand to do exactly the same every time.
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I live in an age with electricity so it's way fucking faster, but when I was just a boy trying to find my place I had some hardcore chefs that made use do things like that by hand. It is WAY easier to get right by hand because you control it and can feel it, but it takes soooooo much longer. And on the scale a modern kitchen requires... I serve 400-500 guests on average per day right now, if I had 100 then we could do things way better
  • Varine Varine:
    But we can't do that. In the winter yeah, but I HAVE to get people through here right now so I can afford the staff that we CAN do that. We have about 100 days of summer, and if that summer doesn't make us what it will, then I can't operate the other most of the year with my staff. The owner is talking about closing two days a week to cut down on labor, I told him he should cut down on vacations and it did not go great. I do think I won though, I have to keep my fucking core staff and they have to be gainfully employed
  • Varine Varine:
    Sure some of them might take a second job, but I can't just cut my entire staff to unlivable hours, nor can I can cut them off all winter if I want them to come back.
  • Varine Varine:
    And also, there is no fucking way I'm pulling these hours come september. I only do this right now because I have to, the second I don't have to be the one doing it I won't be
  • Varine Varine:
    I have a 5 person core staff in the kitchen, not including me or Chef Ben
  • Varine Varine:
    Though two of those people are likely not making it this year. One of them has been replaced, the other I am kind of trying to. He's being a giant bitch, today I had to get onto him because in the three hours before I left he had taken like thirty minutes for cigarette breaks
  • Varine Varine:
    And he was also complaining to me the other day that he was out of weed so couldn't smoke any before work that day, and was confused about why I was annoyed he was telling me, his boss, that he is smoking weed everyday before work.

  • Varine Varine:
    Like yeah I can tell. I don't need to fucking know.
  • Varine Varine:
    So now he's getting scrutinized and will not be top of the list. I know I don't have the smartest people but I do expect them to have some common fucking sense
  • Varine Varine:
    I did do a rare thing for me and hire a girl last month without warning. Everyone was made at me because I started her at like 21, but she worked with me before and I was like don't care. She made 19 at her old job and I wanted her to come work with me, she is the best

  • Varine Varine:
    I'm going to get her a raise at the end of the summer. She wants to go to school again, but I want her to still work with me so.... she kind of can just tell me what the price is. I can go to 25 if she keeps up. I need to get her onto line more, that's what she wants, but I need her where she is and it's not fair that she doesn't get the little bit of raise that comes with it. She can do it no problem, I've worked with her there.
  • Varine Varine:
    It's just hard to move and train people unnecessarily right now. And also the line fucking sucks, it's not any more fun. This is turn and burn so I have the bankroll, and everyone suffers for it
  • Varine Varine:
    Eventually we'll get it balanced, we'
  • Varine Varine:
    we're starting online orders and stuff, but I also turn that off all the time because I barely keep up trying to be the best at Sysco shit
  • Varine Varine:
    I think it's gonna be a good fall and winter though. We're going to have a good staff, they will get along, they will be able to manage the workload and the complications, they know how to really cook this year, like every person on line knows their steak temps. Some of them use thermometers a lot and they don't always use them right, but they do know how to do it. Failure, especially in this field, is the only way to get better. They'll get it
  • Varine Varine:
    They won't get feel down while they do the thermometer, but we didn't have an instant read probe when I was learning. Like they did but god knows how off it is, you HAD to do it by feel. Even if the chef was fine with me bringing my own, it takes too long. Poke and know
