I have a building that I need to upgrade every time a specific unit is killed. I got it to work, but it's not 100%.

Here is the trigger:

Code: 
    Events
        Unit - A unit Dies
    Conditions
        (Level of Encounter Classification  for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 1
    Actions
        Set VariableSet PN = (Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                Farm_Level[PN] Less than Farm_Total
            Then - Actions
                --------   --------
                Set VariableSet Farm_Level[PN] = (Farm_Level[PN] + 1)
                --------   --------
                Unit - Order Farm_Unit[PN] to train/upgrade to a Farm_Types[Farm_Level[PN]]
                Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Player(PN))) + (  + (  + ((Name of Farm_Unit[PN]) + ( | Farm Level:  + (String(Farm_Level[PN])))))))
            Else - Actions

Here is an example of it not working for player RED:

As you can see the Farm Level exceeds the Farm_unit level, causing it to essentially get "stuck"

What is your Farm_Total and where do you define it ?
Edit : See the bottom of this BBCODE to learn how to post your trigger like this
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
    • Conditions
      • (Level of Encounter Classification for (Triggering unit)) Equal to 1
    • Actions
      • Set VariableSet PN = (Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • Farm_Level[PN] Less than Farm_Total
        • Then - Actions
          • -------- --------
          • Set VariableSet Farm_Level[PN] = (Farm_Level[PN] + 1)
          • -------- --------
          • Unit - Order Farm_Unit[PN] to train/upgrade to a Farm_Types[Farm_Level[PN]]
          • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Player(PN))) + ( + ( + ((Name of Farm_Unit[PN]) + ( | Farm Level: + (String(Farm_Level[PN])))))))
        • Else - Actions

Mmh might be something like the variables get updated too quick and the farm doesn't have time to upgrade so if it happens one time it's doomed.. Does it happen everytime or ?
Edit : Basically your farm variable goes from 2 to 4 in an instant but it just have time to upgrade to 3 and then it's fucked

Well, might work but it's the hide the problem kind of solution..
You should check when you want to upgrade if the level of the farm is equal to the value of the variable first of all to avoid falling into this trap...
But then you have another problem, you missed an upgrade :
Solution :
Queue upgrade.

I set the upgrade progress of the unit to 100%

  • Unit - Set Farm_Unit[PN] upgrade progress to 100%
Hopefully, that will fix the delay between setting the variable and the unit upgrade.
