Spawn trigger issue

[Enki]

Hello. I was trying to find a way to spawn creeps with just one trigger so i wont need another spawn trigger for each wave. I managed to find an old post in this forum and changed a little bit.

my variables are:

CreepType : unit-type array
WaveNo : integer array

setcreeptypes
Events
Map initialization
Conditions
Actions
Set CreepType[0] = Treant Level 1
Set CreepType[1] = Water Elemental (Level 1) (Level 1)
Set CreepType[2] = Spirit Wolf (Level 1) (Level 1)
Set CreepType[3] = Skeleton Warrior Level 1
Set CreepType[4] = Skeletal Mage Level 1
Set CreepType[5] = Carrion Beetle (Level 1) (Level 1)
Set CreepType[6] = Owl Scout (Level 1) (Level 1)



spawn trigger:
Spawn
Events
Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing start as An exact match
Conditions
(Number of units in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Player 12 (Brown))) Equal to 0
Actions
For each (Integer A) from 1 to 10, do (Actions)
Loop - Actions
Wait 1.00 seconds
Unit - Create 1 CreepType[WaveNo[(Integer A)]] for Player 12 (Brown) at (Center of SpawnRegion <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees


and KillCount trigger: What i want from this one is when the last created units dies, i want this trigger to add +1 to WaveNo array so next time player types start the spawn trigger will spawn the next type of unit i previously set with "setcreeptypes" trigger.
Events
Unit - A unit owned by Player 12 (Brown) Dies
Conditions
(Triggering unit) Equal to (Last created unit)
Actions
Set WaveNo[(Integer A)] = (WaveNo[(Integer A)] + 1)

The problem is when i kill all the creeps on the map and type start, trigger spawns the same wave. It just doesnt spawn the next type of creeps. I'm totaly stucked here. Any help will be apreciated. Thanks and regards.

you shouldn't use an integer array - unless you spawn seperate waves for each player.
I'd do this - spawns 10 seconds after last creep dies.

• Wave Setup
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- Set Creep Types and Amount of Creeps --------
    • Set CreepType[0] = Peasant
    • Set CreepAmount[0] = 10
    • Set CreepType[1] = Rifleman
    • Set CreepAmount[1] = 12

• Spawn Trigger
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit owned by Player 12 (Brown) Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Number of units in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Player 12 (Brown))) Equal to 0
  • Actions
    • Set WaveNo = (WaveNo + 1)
    • Wait 10.00 seconds
    • -------- Delete the Event and the Wait and use a trigger to run it if you dont want it to run after last unit&#039;s death --------
    • Set TempPoint = (Center of SpawnRegion &lt;gen&gt;)
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to CreepAmount[WaveNo], do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Create 1 CreepType[WaveNo] for Player 12 (Brown) at TempPoint facing Default building facing degrees
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

Ask if there's something you don't understand Also, I didn't test this.. >.<

I Just copy-> pasted it from my Map. Maybe there is something in it you could need.

Editing "WaveNo" did the trick. But seeing your triggers, made me wanna change mine. I will see what i can do with these new stuffs. Thank you both for your answers.
