reviving heroes general timer

[polymorph]

how do you right a script that every 15 seconds the trigger attempts to revive all heroes that are currently dead

 

[hodge]

At the beginning of the game~ set variables for the heroes...
it'd be quite easy~ lets say there are 8 players~ it would be
a repetition of stuff~

Event
Map initialization
Condition
-------none needed
Actions
(here you'll set the variables)
set x1 = unit player1 (x1 is a random name i just made up right now)
set x2 = unit player2

so on and so forth...
then~

make a new trigger

Event
Every 15 seconds of game time
Condition
--------none
action
if/else/then
(for the if condition use boolean comparison)
if
hero is dead is true
then
revive x1 instantly at location(make a good spot for that)
else
do nothing

then you repeat that for all players~ hope you get what im trying to tell you~

 

[polymorph]

yea i get it, thanks

 

[polymorph]

uh sorry i thought i understood correctly and knew what i was doing but how do you set variables for the action trigger

dont need variables or anything...

Revive Heros
    Events
        Time - Every 15.00 seconds of game time
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to True)) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                    If - Conditions
                        ((Picked unit) is dead) Equal to True
                    Then - Actions
                        Hero - Instantly revive (Picked unit) at (Center of (Playable map area)), Show revival graphics
                    Else - Actions

                If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                    If - Conditions
                        ((Picked unit) is dead) Equal to True

                    Else - Actions

i did everything above this point but how do you add a loop and the

if-
if-
then-

part

 

[AgentPaper]

its an action caled If Then Else (Multiple actions) near the top of the list. how did you get by with out it?! :nuts:

 

[polymorph]

oh >< i knew that but its weird cuz i'm on RoC and If Then and Else is all in one line unless the loop is the problem. and yea...i don't know how to make that either.

(((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to True)) and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions

one more question...how do you get the editor to do the (Actions) thing

Revive Heros
Events
Time - Every 15.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to True)) and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
((Picked unit) is dead) Equal to True
Then - Actions
Hero - Instantly revive (Picked unit) at (Center of (Playable map area)), Show revival graphics
Else - Actions

i did exactly that and when it resurrects it only does like 1 hero at a time, like if 2 heros died then after the 15 seconds it only revives one hero

Create a unit-group variable to track dead heroes
I've called it ugDeadHeroes (how original)

A hero dies
Events
    A unit dies
Conditions
    ((Dying unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
Actions
    Unit Group - Add (Dying unit) to (ugDeadHeroes)

Then another one to resurrect heroes

Bring heroes to life
Events
    Time - Every 15.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
    None
Actions
    Unit Group - Pick every unit in (ugDeadHeroes) and do
        Hero - Instantly revive (Picked unit) at (Any area), Show revival graphics
    Unit Group - Remove all units from (ugDeadHeroes)
