Timer

[Dark_Hella]

hey you guys i need a little help with a timer. i cant quiet figure out how to make one work so that units are transported to a certain region every30 minutes...damn timers...

 

[NoxMortus]

this is a rough trigger:

Events:
Time - Every 30 minutes of game time
Conditions:
Actions:
Pick every unit in <your region1> and move (instantly) to <your region2>

If you want a timer, as in a visible game time in a multiboard, that is beyond me.

Hopefully the trigger above will help a bit

 

[Dark_Hella]

Yeah but how am i going to transport them back after im done with them?

 

[NoxMortus]

After your 'Done' with them?

I dont fully understand, but you could try

Events:
Time - Every 30 minutes of game time
Conditions:
Actions:
Wait 25 seconds
Pick every unit in <your region2> and move (instantly) to <your region1>

ok this is a kind of arena map that i am making. every 30 mins i want a random person on both teams to go to the arena to fight eachother. when one kills the other i want them to transport back to the place that they were at...if you want to see the map so far i would be happy to email it to you if its not big enough

hmm. ok I have an idea of how to do it, I'll edit this post when im finished making the trigger.

30 minutes is rather long.. you would only have 1 or 2 duals per map for a normal game. I would try 10 minutes or maybe 15.

-- Edit --

Ok I had trouble making the trigger, and couldnt find an appropriate action for it. I was looking for something along the lines of ' Unit Group - Pick Random Unit in (Unit Group) and do Actions: ' But I couldn't find any.

Here are the 2 incomplete triggers I've made, perhaps a moe experienced mapper can complete them for you.

Pick hero on team 1
    Events
        Time - Elapsed game time is 1800.00 seconds
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                    If - Conditions
                        Or - Any (Conditions) are true
                            Conditions
                                (((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) and (((Picked unit) is in (Units owned by Player 1 (Red))) Equal to True)
                                (((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) and (((Picked unit) is in (Units owned by Player 2 (Blue))) Equal to True)
                                (((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) and (((Picked unit) is in (Units owned by Player 3 (Teal))) Equal to True)
                                (((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) and (((Picked unit) is in (Units owned by Player 4 (Purple))) Equal to True)
                    Then - Actions
                    Else - Actions

                    If - Conditions
                        Or - Any (Conditions) are true

                                (((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) and (((Picked unit) is in (Units owned by Player 6 (Orange))) Equal to True)
                                (((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) and (((Picked unit) is in (Units owned by Player 7 (Green))) Equal to True)
                                (((Picked unit) is A Hero) Equal to True) and (((Picked unit) is in (Units owned by Player 8 (Pink))) Equal to True)

    Conditions
        ((Dualling arena) contains (Triggering unit)) Equal to True
    Actions

        Player - Add 200 to (Owner of (Killing unit)) Current gold
        Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Dualling Arena)) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                    If - Conditions
                        ((Picked unit) belongs to an ally of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
                    Then - Actions
                        Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to (Center of (Team 1 Base))
                    Else - Actions
                        Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to (Center of (Team 2 Base))
                Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
