[Solved] Starcraft bunkers! (counting units inside a burrow)

Ok, in my map basically I am trying to implement a starcraft bunker system. Only one type of unit can enter the burrows though so I figured I would just use Pheonix fire and have four separate ones that I can give the burrow depending on how many units are in it. Problem is I can't seem to find how to count units inside a burrow, and I can't find a event that will allow me to sense it. (there are alot of bunkers on the map so I dont think checking every once in a while would be a very effective strategy)

Somebody help me out.

You need to use global variable array of type rct in event.

function Trig_T1_A takes nothing returns nothing
    set udg_Bunker[i] = ( udg_Bunker[i] + 1 )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_T1 takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_T1 = CreateTrigger( )
    call TriggerRegisterEnterRectSimple( gg_trg_T1, udg_rct[i] )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_T1, function Trig_T1_A )
endfunction

i'm using a system with items in my commandandconquer map, it creates an item in the bunkers inventory which has the pheonix fire ability, so 4 units inside -> 4 items

bunker

Events

Unit - A unit is loaded into a transport.

Conditions

(Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) equal to your unit-type
(Unit-type of (Loading unit)) equal to Bunker

Actions

Set TempPoint = (Position of (Loading Unit))
Item - Create <Pheonixfire-Item> at (TempPoint))
Unit - Order (Transporting unit) to Rightclick (Last created item)
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

bunker leave

Events

Unit - A unit finishes casting an ability

Conditions

(Ability being cast) equal to leave Bunker (unload all)

Actions

Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 1)
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 2)
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 3)
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 4)
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 5)
Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot 6)

if you remove single units from the bunker use:

unload one unit

Events

Unit - A unit is issued an order targeting an object

Conditions

(Issued order) equal to (Order(unload))
(Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) equal to Bunker

Actions

Item - Remove (Item carried by (Triggering unit) in slot (Number of items carried by (Triggering unit)))

Give them the Insect thingy.

The best idea would be using dummy units with the same attacks than units that can enter, you create them when units enter and remove when they leave or bunker is destroyed.

Hrmm... Day Elven maybe if there was a set amount of bunkers and I could manage each one, but there isnt, and that is still not a way to check how many units are in it. Besides, units can enter the bunker without going on it, and there is flying units, and bunkers are real close in some areas.

UreDe4d, that is exactly what I wanted to do and the a pretty good way of doing it, +rep, Thanks.

Locust units. Hmm, here I see too many options for exploits and glitches. And it is a bit wierd to manage. And I would still have the issue of seeing how many units there are in the bunker. I couldnt use area, because some bunkers could be really close... Hrmmm

Im gonna go with UreDe4d's way.
Will post back I get it working.

Side note, do you have issues if they tell two units to load in at the same time? Also, if I wanted to use abilities and not items, how would I tell how many units are already in the bunker? And how do you make an item so they cannot drop it? Oo or is there a way to hide inventory but still have it?

You can hide your inventory only from other players (Gameplay Constants).

Hmm, I may want to do that. Hmm, too bad you cant hide inventory from yourself, it could prove useful in many situations.

I got it working.

2 important things, be sure the inventory ability you have doesn't make items drop upon death, and make the items undropable in object editor
