Tower stops attacking after an upgrade, help fix that

[Exoudar]

Hello there,

sometimes after I upgrade the tower it stops attacking and I need to right click creeps to make it auto attack again.

I made a trigger to fix that but its annoying and requires me to do that trigger for every singler tower upgrade I made

here is the trigger

• setting target
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Sniper Tower
        • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Sniper Tower (Upgrade level 1)
        • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Sniper Tower (Upgrade level 2)
        • (Unit-type of (Attacking unit)) Equal to Sniper Tower (Upgrade level 3)
  • Actions
    • Hashtable - Save Handle Of(Attacked unit) as (Key (Attacking unit)) of 0 in Carful_Aim_Hashtable

• Fixing sniper tower auto attack
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes an upgrade
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Sniper Tower (Upgrade level 1)
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Sniper Tower (Upgrade level 2)
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Sniper Tower (Upgrade level 3)
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Attack (Load (Key (Attacked unit)) of 0 in Carful_Aim_Hashtable)

is there any other way?

Convert Unit type to string and compare the first 12 digits in a substring like so:

• Conditions
  • Substring(1, 12, String(Unit type of (Triggering unit))) is equal to Sniper Tower

(string comparison)

Basically it compares the first 12 digits of the unit type converted into a string thats the: Substring(1, 12, string) part, substring refers to a piece of a string beginning at digit a ending at digit b, so 1 to 12 (including a and b)

thanks for the fast replay,

I only have 3 snipers towers, but thats not the case.

I have to do this for every other towers with different names i have?

if there is an issue with every tower than yes, idk what would cause a glitch like that, unless you based them off a passive type tower and need to base them off an auto-attacking type tower

Try to just issue the towers the order "stop" right after the upgrade did finish.
The tower wont attack the same target as before this way but its auto attack will resume and it will save alot of performance and memory.

actually I dont want it to attack the same target, I'll try the "stop" order, thanks
