Unit Spawn

[Starlite]

What would be the best way to have units spawn for a hero defense. Any example triggers would help alot. The only kind of spawning I know how to do is spawn them in blobs like in a tower defense... So any help would be great

 

[PB_and_J]

Do you mean to spwan them one by one then here it is:

 Action: every 3 seconds.
Event: Create 1 footman at center of Your Spwan Region.

If you want em to come in waves:

 Action: every 10 seconds.
Event: Create 5 footman at center of Your Spwan Region.

To move em:

 Event: Unit enters Your Spwan Region
Condition: Entering Unit equal to footman OR Owner of Enterring unit equal to "your spwaning player"
Action: Issue order to enterring unit to move to center of "Your next region"

Repeat for all your mouventments.

Hoped that helped

Your basicly saying you only want five creeps to spawn per level, and to do that you would do something like
Events: (your event)
Actions:
Unit-Create 1 (unit type variable) at region facing default building degrees
Wait 2 seconds
Unit-Create 1 (unit type variable) at region facing default building degrees

Then at the end of the unit spawns, when you want your next level to begin put:
Trigger - Run Set Levels

Set Levels Would Look like:
If Current_Level equal to 1 then do set (unit type variable) equal to Ice Troll
