I made a trigger im my game called Titan Land for a item called the death note. The item uses trigger to work and I will write below its use and its decription ingame. Then I will write down the 2 triggers and the problem. I wish I will get help fast enough so I can fix that trigger. Thanks a lot! ^^
How it is used:
If a hero is in possession of the item (Death Note), the player can type in -DeathNote 'Unit name' and the unit that has that name will die after 40 seconds. To prevent multiple units with the same name from dying, the targeted unit must also be selected by the player that has the Death Note. Some unit such as buildings and other specific units won't die.
Its description:
Artifact
This is the Death Note of a Death God. It has several rules written in.
The one whose name is written in this note shall die.
(Type -DeathNote "The unit's name")
This note will not take effect unless the writer has the subject unit selected. Therefore, people sharing the same name will not be affected.
The subject will simply die of a heart attack after 40 seconds his name was written in the Death Note.
The Death Note won't affect Divines.
That first trigger is the one who do the entire effect, it is it who see if the units typing the command has a hero with the Death Note in his possession. (There is only 1 Death Note in the entire game), it is also it who check if the written name matches with the name of the unit the player has selected.
That second trigger is only to put a soud and visual effect when a unit die from the death note.
The problem:
Well the Death Note seems to work perfectly on single games, when I tested it myself. However, it seem that it works 33% of the time on multiplayer games. When I tried it on multiplayer games, I noticed that when the command is done, the selected units are automatically unselected. And I bet that when they're unselected, the trigger don't work as there are no unit selected so the written name won't work with any unit since ther unit group has nothing in. I don't know what cause the trigger to make the player unselect his units. And I'd like to know if you can help me with that trigger, thanks a lot ^^.
