Unit Cap

[pride2518]

How do I make it so that if X player has more than X units of type Fiend, it will not create units for him anymore? Here is the trigger I'm using to spawn.

• Spawn
  • Events
    • Time - Every 10.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of RedB <gen>)
    • If ((Player 1 (Red) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 1 (Red) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of BlueB <gen>)
    • If ((Player 2 (Blue) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 2 (Blue) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of TealB <gen>)
    • If ((Player 3 (Teal) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 3 (Teal) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of PurpB <gen>)
    • If ((Player 4 (Purple) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 4 (Purple) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of YellowB <gen>)
    • If ((Player 5 (Yellow) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 5 (Yellow) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of OrangeB <gen>)
    • If ((Player 6 (Orange) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 6 (Orange) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of GreenB <gen>)
    • If ((Player 7 (Green) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 7 (Green) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)
    • Set Temp_Point = (Center of PinkB <gen>)
    • If ((Player 8 (Pink) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 8 (Pink) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)

I guess check the whole map for how mutch units he has and then when its equal or smaller then 50 don't spawn a creep for that player.

• Events
  • Conditions
    • (Number of units in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Player 1 (Red))) Less than or equal to 50
  • Actions
  • Spawn for that player.

save all the units you create via this trigger inside a unitgroup and check the number of units inside.

yeah just have a few variables to count it, like Fiends_Alive: integer array[12]

and then have

• actions
  • if (Fiends_Alive less than 50):
  • Set Temp_Point = (Center of RedB <gen>)
  • If ((Player 1 (Red) slot status) Equal to Is playing) then do (Unit - Create 1 Fiend for Player 1 (Red) at Temp_Point facing Default building facing degrees) else do (Do nothing)
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Temp_Point)
  • set Fiends_Alive[1] to Fiends_Alive[1]+1

• events
  • unit - unit dies
  • conditions
  • unit type is *Fiend*
  • actions
  • set Fiends_Alive[Player number of (Owner of Dying unit)] to (Fiends_Alive[Player number of (Owner of Dying unit)] -1)

and then everytime u create one just add one on etc etc.. this is just rough, but this kindof system would work.

note: your method is also unnecessarily long, u could shorten it by using a Player Group's method.
