Trigger Request

[Steve]

Ok so I basicly need a trigger that will allow the user to select a tower from a merchant and then upon them selecting it the builder then needs to be able to build it in his build menu. Think of it like hero arena but with buildings instead of abilities. I could never figure out how they did this so im asking for a bit of help on this one, thanks.

I dont think you can give units new buildings to build through triggers, only in the unit editor. 1 thing you can do tho, is create upgrades for all of the buildings and then add that upgrade to the buildings 'techtree - requirements'. Now add all the buildings to the unit's buildables. The unit will not be able to build the structure until the player has purchased the upgrade.

If you want the structures to replace actual abilities, then base the abilities off things like 'build tiny lumber mill' or what ever it is.

Make the builder a hero.
Then make him buy items like tiny castle etc.
Then use the trigger which is like Hero - Order hero to use item (Sold item)

Or something like that

Something like this. Yes, you need to change it, a lot. Need to use "begins construction" and add another trigger if the building is canceled... or add a counter on how many buildings you can have...ehm, well, suit yourself actually.

This is meant for a td where the player can mix and match towers available to them so the upgrade system would not work because there is not enough space in the build menu for 45 towers.

The player needs to choose 7 towers from 5 races and without this system my map is in the toilet.

As for the idea with the hero, would it be possible to make the abilities to cost money? like using a trigger such as: when triggering unit casts a spell equal to fire spawn, remove 13 gold from triggering players gold?

Well. start reading the threads. You're basically pointlessly posting if you're repeating things other's have said, without added any extra details or something.
