Spawn units at random places but not the same place as another unit.

[minikrampan]

As usual I lack the ability to make good headlines. Anyway, I'ts like a minigame and i hate minigames where you always spawn at the same place, so i was gonna do this randomly. And heres what I got

• unit place
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.01 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Player((Integer A))) slot status) Equal to Is playing
          • Then - Actions
            • Set start_int = (Random integer number between 1 and 12)
            • Set temp_point = (Center of Spawns[start_int])
            • Set temp_group = (Units in Spawns[start_int])
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Number of units in temp_group) Equal to 0
              • Then - Actions
                • Unit - Create 1 Unit for (Player((Integer A))) at temp_point facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
              • Else - Actions
            • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_point)
            • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_temp_group)
          • Else - Actions

The problem is that all units doesn't spawn. It trigger checks everytime it's about to spawn a unit if a unit already is there, and if it is it won't spawn anything. So how can I add a condition to spawn somewhere else if theres already a unit where the new unit is supposed to spawn?

ps. I also lack the ability of explaining myself in understandable ways.

from the looks of it, you just need to rerun the trigger again, to generate a new location out of the 12 possible (if i'm reading your trigger properly)

in the second to last Else statement (before the custom scripts) try putting this:

• Trigger - Run (This trigger) (checking conditions)

either this trigger or the add to trigger queue button should cause this trigger to just repeat itself. As long as a player needs to be placed it should keep rolling random numbers until it has everyone at a separate location.

That makes it run through the loop of 12 too, which is unneccesary

Just make another trigger with all the actions in the first "If", and then add SGT's action in the "Else" part, but change (This trigger) to the newly created trigger

Doesn't work really

• Loop - Actions
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • ((Player((Integer A))) slot status) Equal to Is playing
    • Then - Actions
      • Set start_int = (Random integer number between 1 and 12)
      • Set temp_point = (Center of Spawns[start_int])
      • Set temp_group = (Units in Spawns[start_int])
      • Set temp_group2 = (Units owned by (Player((Integer A))))
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • (Number of units in temp_group) Equal to 0
          • (Number of units in temp_group2) Equal to 0
        • Then - Actions
          • Unit - Create 1 Tiny for (Player((Integer A))) at temp_point facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
          • Set units[(Integer A)] = (Last created unit)
        • Else - Actions
          • Trigger - Run unit place Copy <gen> (checking conditions)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_point)
      • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_temp_group)
      • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_temp_group2)
    • Else - Actions

• unit place Copy
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set temp_point = (Center of Spawns[(Integer A)])
        • Set temp_group = (Units in Spawns[(Integer A)])
        • Set temp_group2 = (Units owned by (Player((Integer A))))
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Number of units in temp_group) Equal to 0
            • (Number of units in temp_group2) Equal to 0
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Create 1 Tiny for (Player((Integer A))) at temp_point facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
            • Set units[(Integer A)] = (Last created unit)
          • Else - Actions
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temp_point)
        • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_temp_group)
        • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_temp_group2)

2 triggers, a few changes, whats wrong?

Don't use that integer loop in the second trigger
