Triggered Unit

[blood_wave55]

You know ehn you make a trigger that says (trigger unit). Well if you do, then is there a way to pick the unit without making them be on the map? Cause every time it asks for (triggered unit), I always have to put the the selected unit on the map! Please help me with this problem!

 

[Im_On_56k]

not sure what you mean, use unit of type? or is that event your talkin bout

 

[Demonfaze]

If you select a (triggering unit) you don't have to select the unit on the map. That option is there for if you want to select the unit on the map, but if you don't you just press OK.

i tihnk hes talking bout unit comparison (or one of them 3) put unit type comparison then

(blubloobloofat) = (triggering unit)

i think that might work

 

[Demonfaze]

Well in that case you would need to either select a unit on the map or have a variable...

In order to be a triggering unit, the unit must set off an action. I don't think there are any actions that can be set off when the unit isn't actually on the map already.

im so confused, heres what i tihnk his problem is thou



hes using the wron unit comparison

he probably using unit comparison and should be using unit-type comparison

Hmmm

Hmmmm. Here's what i meant. You know when you make a trigger and it says (triggered unit), well then you click it right? But when you click it, it goes to your map. But my problem is that how do you select the "triggered unit" without placing them on the map! Cause I opened that window with the terrian,doodads,units,regions, and more. And I try clicking "triggered Unit" on the trigger and clicked the unit on the window with the terrian,doodads,units,regions, and more. But it didn’t work! The only thing that seems to work is making the unit on the map.
Sorry for the unclear words I made .
ty for reading and replying Good bye

 

[Bartuc08]

ok for ur condition use comapr unti type instead of compare unit

 

[Demonfaze]

I think he is trying to make the trigger happen in his editor or something. It seems like he is trying to set a unit, lets just say a footman, = triggering unit, then trying to select "triggering unit" in his editor.

blood_wave55, could you please take a screen shot of what you are trying to do?
If you don't know how, just ask.

Ty for reading,replying,and mostly helping Good bye

 

[Bartuc08]

to make a screen shot hold ctrl (or was it alt?) and press prtint screen (its right above insert)

 

[blood_wave55]

So.

So alt+P or ctrl+pP

[Demonfaze]

No, print screen is a different button than the letter P.

All you have to do is press print screen. If you can't get the screen shot to work, just attach the map to your next post.

[blood_wave55]

So.

So I think this is it. Mine says PrtScn then SySRq then right under it is Insert

Also

When I get 100 post, do I get a upgrade instead of NEWBIE !

 

[Demonfaze]

Yes you do...

What is with everyone caring about number of posts!?
I have never cared about number of posts except for it shows that you know your stuff.

Not my job to tell you this, but if you do ask something like that, you should have something else on-topic there as well.
