So close. trigger condition problem

[Kosire]

Im really close I think xD I have a trigger where if a player types a message and action happens but I want the condition to be the command only works if the player has their hero inside a specific region. I think it could be simple, just cant quite get it.

P.S. - Is there a way I can make a building that players are allied to (Can use town portal scroll on) but they do not OWN?

Why not put an If/Then/Else under Loop-Actions?

After so, you just put under If (Condition) these conditions
(Picked unit) is a Hero Equal to True
(Owner of (Picked unit)) Equal to (Trigger for your Triggering Player)


Remember, you must set a variable for our player that happened to be the one typing on your previous trigger.

• Red Abyss Party Blue
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -partyblue as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in Abyss PvP Area <gen>) and do (If ((Owner of (Picked unit)) Equal to Player 2 (Blue)) then do (Player - Make Player 1 (Red) treat Player 2 (Blue) as an Ally with shared vision) else do (Do nothing))

There's an example of one of the triggers I'm trying to get the condition for. If I were to use your idea I can put that If/Then/Else in the same trigger and have it work? also I dont understand variables nearly at all so I may need help applying this into a trigger

Is there a specific unit you are looking for here? If you can provide exactly what the circumstances are here, I can probably create a trigger for you that should do what you want.

My trigger I posted in my last post is the skeleton of the multiple im using for each player to type -party(player) and have that player an ally or -xparty(player) to make them an enemy. But the flaw in the trigger (or the major flaw I saw ) was that you could type it even when not in this "PvP enabled" area and make someone an enemy, so I want it only to work while the triggering player's hero is inside the region.
EDIT: Also, I thought this would be easier to do if each player only OWNED one unit. However, for my Scrolls of Town Portal to work I created dummy buildings owned by each player so they could teleport to them, hence me wanting to know how I could make a building your able to teleport to, but don't own

Something like this is what you want:

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -blah as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set tempgroup = (Units in <Your Region>)
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in tempgroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
            • (Owner of (Picked unit)) Equal to (Triggering player)
          • Then - Actions
            • <Add actions here>
          • Else - Actions
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(tempgroup)
    • Custom script: set tempgroup = null

• Red Abyss Party Blue
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -partyblue as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set tempgroup = (Units in Abyss PvP Area <gen>)
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in tempgroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
            • (Owner of (Picked unit)) Equal to (Triggering player)
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in Abyss PvP Area <gen>) and do (If ((Owner of (Picked unit)) Equal to Player 2 (Blue)) then do (Player - Make Player 1 (Red) treat Player 2 (Blue) as an Ally with shared vision) else do (Do nothing))
          • Else - Actions
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(tempgroup)
    • Custom script: set tempgroup = null

->So the order would be..
Red types the command
Sets variable to be the group within PVP region
Picks the units in that region
If the unit picked is a Hero owned by red
picks units in that area again
if it finds a unit owned by blue, make blue an ally
if not, doesnt do anthing
but then the Custom Script doesnt get done, does it? Oof >.<

Yes.

> then the Custom Script doesnt get done, does it? Oof >.<

Sure it does. It is completely outside the If statement.

Oh alright. thanks so much for your help, this was a little more complicated than I had thought but it shouldnt be hard to replicate or use at all. Quite new at the advanced features of HE so sorry for not really grasping everything, still a tremendous help
