[Trigger] Bug on escape

Wc3IsSoFun123 · Aug 21, 2009

Im trying to make a escape for wc3,but its a wierd bug.
On the trigger spawn it spawns and order them to patrol,but only 6 of them works.I tryed to add wait,make 1 more trigger but it still doesnt work :sad:

Trigger

Wait 1.00 between order and next create unit)

Events
Time - Elapsed Game Time is 3.00 Seconds
Conditions
Actions
Unit -Create 1 Unit killer for Player 12 Brown at (Center of region) facing default facing degrees
Unit - Order (Last Created Unit) to Patrol to (Region)
Unit -Create 1 Unit killer for Player 12 Brown at (Center of region) facing default facing degrees
Unit - Order (Last Created Unit) to Patrol to (Region)
Unit -Create 1 Unit killer for Player 12 Brown at (Center of region) facing default facing degrees
Unit - Order (Last Created Unit) to Patrol to (Region)
Unit -Create 1 Unit killer for Player 12 Brown at (Center of region) facing default facing degrees
Unit - Order (Last Created Unit) to Patrol to (Region)
Unit -Create 1 Unit killer for Player 12 Brown at (Center of region) facing default facing degrees
Unit - Order (Last Created Unit) to Patrol to (Region)
Unit -Create 1 Unit killer for Player 12 Brown at (Center of region) facing default facing degrees
Unit - Order (Last Created Unit) to Patrol to (Region)

And its 3 mortars in it but they work fine.
Part 2 of Trigger:

Events
(Activated by other trigger)
Conditions
Actions
Unit -Create 1 Unit killer for Player 12 Brown at (Center of region) facing default facing degrees
Unit - Order (Last Created Unit) to Patrol to (Region)
Unit -Create 1 Unit killer for Player 12 Brown at (Center of region) facing default facing degrees
Unit - Order (Last Created Unit) to Patrol to (Region)
Trigger - Run Visiblity 1<gen> checking conditions

Trigger 1 works fine but second doesnt work(i tryed adding them to trigger 1 but it still didnt work).Any idea why? :cute:

Are you using an array variable in those triggers ?

dansaDisco · Aug 21, 2009

Can't you just

Untitled Trigger 001
- Events
  - Time - Elapsed game time is 5.00 seconds
- Conditions
- Actions
  - For each (Integer A) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
    - Loop - Actions
      - Unit - Create 1 unit killer for Player 12 (Brown) at (Center of (region)) facing Default building facing degrees
      - Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Patrol To (Center of (region))

or are you creating them at different regions?

Wc3IsSoFun123 · Aug 21, 2009

Yes i am

Then if you are refering to those different regions by an array variable, increase its size at the variable editor.

Wc3IsSoFun123 · Aug 21, 2009

So you mean

So you mean:

Untitled Trigger 001
Events
Time - Elapsed Game Time is 3.00 seconds
Conditions
Actions
Set Region[1] = Region 001
Unit - Create 1 Killer for Player 1 red At Region[1]

Thats what you mean?
Im sorry that i forgot to mention but spawn works just fine but it wont patrol

Starquizer · Aug 21, 2009

No, you don't set the Region array variable in the same trigger, you set it somewhere like the Initialization trigger.

If you select the preplaced (like Region0001 <gen>) region directly then you will need many actions as you mentioned in the first post.

Wc3IsSoFun123 · Aug 21, 2009

Oh

Like this

sorry for bad gramma)

Untitled trigger 002
Events
Map initialazion
Conditions
Actions
Set Region[1] = (Region 001)
Set Region[2] = (Region 002)

Starquizer · Aug 21, 2009

Exactly.

Initialization
- Events
  - Map initialization
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Set Region[1] = Region 001 <gen>
  - Set Region[2] = Region 002 <gen>
  - Set Region[3] = Region 003 <gen>
  - Set Region[4] = Region 004 <gen>
  - Set Region[5] = Region 005 <gen>
  - Set Region[6] = Region 006 <gen>

And to use them in trigger with a loop, you do something like this:

Move Order
- Events
- Conditions
- Actions
  - For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
    - Loop - Actions
      - Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of CreateRegion) facing 0.00 degrees
      - Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Attack-Move To (Center of Region[(Integer A)])
      - Wait 1.00 seconds

Though I don't like waits in loops but since this wait is not too samll so its ok.

Hope I have helped you. :as:

Wc3IsSoFun123 · Aug 21, 2009

Umm,i do like you in the move order but it wont do anything
For each integer a from 1 to 1 (Only test on 1 has only set 1 though

create unit at region 004
Order unit to patrol to (center of regionvariable[(Integer A)](
Stll it doesn wotrk

The underlined, are they variables or not ?

Becarful, if you created a unit then didn't refer to it by a unit variable you'll need to use (Last created unit) in order to issue any order to that unit but if you will issue the order to a variable then you need to set it first to the last created unit. Like this:

For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
- Loop - Actions
  - Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of CreateRegion) facing 0.00 degrees
  - Set Unit = Last created unit
  - Unit - Order Unit to Attack-Move To (Center of Region[(Integer A)])
  - Wait 1.00 seconds

As you can see you have to set the variable Unit to the Last created unit in order to use that variable otherwise it will be null.

And by the way, if you will set the loop from 1 to 1 then there is no need to use a loop at all.

Result

I've done 2 triggers,1 init and 1 integer a trigger
Integer A:

Untitled trigger 001
Events
Conditions
Actions
- For Each Integer A(From 1 to 6) Do (Actions)
  - Loop - Actions
    - Unit - Create 1 Killer for player 1 red at center of region 005
    - Set Unit = Last Creted Unit
    - Unit -Order Unit to Patrol to (Center of Region[Integer A]

Init:

Map INIT
Events
- Map Initialazition
Conditions
Actions
- Set Region[1] = (Region 006)

It just spawns 6 units at region 005 and nothing else :sad:

Starquizer · Aug 21, 2009

OK, let me try it myself. Once I get it work I'll EDIT this post.

<<EDIT>>

Don't know whats your problem but its working fine.

Click of the Variable Editor button (Ctrl + B) then click New Variable (Ctrl + N) then create a Region variable and check the Array checkbox name the variable any name you want then click [OK]. Then create those triggers, that should work.

Initialization
- Events
  - Map initialization
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Set Region[1] = Region 001 <gen>
  - Set Region[2] = Region 002 <gen>
  - Set Region[3] = Region 003 <gen>
  - Set Region[4] = Region 004 <gen>
  - Set Region[5] = Region 005 <gen>
  - Set Region[6] = Region 006 <gen>

Move Order
- Events
  - Time - Elapsed game time is 5.00 seconds
- Conditions
- Actions
  - For each (Integer A) from 1 to 6, do (Actions)
    - Loop - Actions
      - Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of Region 000 <gen>) facing 0.00 degrees
      - Unit - Order (Last created unit) to Patrol To (Center of Region[(Integer A)])
      - Wait 1.00 seconds

This will create 6 footmen at the same location but they will patrol to different locations. Try this and tell me if it worked or not because if it didn't work am gonna suicide :grin:

Ok thx

Wc3IsSoFun123 · Aug 21, 2009

From the start acctually i just think its a bug with WE

As all except this 2 will spawn(of 9)
So its a bug with WE i guess

Starquizer · Aug 21, 2009

No Problem, try restarting the WE or creating a new map.

Wc3IsSoFun123 · Aug 21, 2009

Ok i guess i wont make an escape then

Because my WE is to bugged...

Try re-installing WC3.

dansaDisco · Aug 22, 2009

Try using this system (in the map attached)

Test the map, if it works for you (it worked perfect for me), then I have no idea what was wrong but you could just copy it all over I guess.

Diehard@Azeroth · Aug 22, 2009

the wait is ruining the loop, it happens sometimes with WE :[ try it without the wait.

Not always, in fact I found that small waits ruin it as you say but 1 second is still concidered a long delay, also I tried it and works fine for me.

And if you don't want to use wait the other alternative is a repeating timer and increase an index like the loop exactly.

Diehard@Azeroth · Aug 22, 2009

well sometimes it may bug, you never know, its we >_<

Or just use UMSWE or WEU i guess

Wc3IsSoFun123 · Aug 22, 2009

The patrol worked and i copied patrol trigger but i dont understand one thing with it.It looks like they can only patrol two 1 spot.If you got a trigger for making two different patrols please post them here.
This trigger makes 1 of them patrol to a spot:

LoL
