How to repsawn trees

This library works well:

Just make sure you have JassNewGenPack. Create a new trigger, Edit -> Convert to Custom Text, and then copy and paste it in. Then change this:
JASS: 
private constant real RegrowAfter = 23.0
To this:
JASS: 
private constant real RegrowAfter = 10.0

And it should work. :)
 
Erhmm... aren't you guys complicating things...?
When i tested this it worked perfectly.
[trigger=Tree Respawn]Tree Respawn
Events
Destructible - A destructible within (Entire map) dies
Conditions
(Destructible-type of (Dying destructible)) Equal to Summer Tree Wall
Actions
Wait 10.00 seconds
Destructible - Resurrect (Dying destructible) with (Max life of (Dying destructible)) life and Show birth animation[/trigger]

When i tested this it worked perfectly even though multiple trees died within the 10 sec.
 
Destroy a gate in a map with that trigger and then watch. :P

You can probably do it in GUI too. Idk. But the reason why the JASS is a bit longer is because it checks if the destructible is a tree or not. :D

But it is kind of situational. If you don't really care that other destructibles will respawn, then yeah you can definitely use that trigger. Otherwise, you can compare destructible ID's or just make the naga slave and see if he can harvest it. (like the code I linked does)

"a destructible within entire map dies" only refers to a few destructibles (like 64) but not all
probably blizzard thought it would be bad to create that many single events

you can circumvent that by creating regions with a maxs of 64 trees and so on in it or by something like:
trigger 1:
event - map ini
actions -
- create a peasant or something with harvest ability
- pick all destructibles in playable map area
- - order last created unit to harvest picked destructible//what purge mentioned already
- - if current order of last created unit is equal to harvest
- - - add to trigger 2 the event picked destructible dies
- remove peasant or hide and stop him to use him later or whatever

trigger 2:
events - are added by trigger 1
actions -
- wait some game time
- revive tree

^ destructible groups don't leak afaik so no need to use
JASS: 
set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
Click to expand...

they don't even use that bj right?

JASS: 
function EnumDestructablesInCircleBJ takes real radius, location loc, code actionFunc returns nothing
    local rect r

    if (radius >= 0) then
        set bj_enumDestructableCenter = loc
        set bj_enumDestructableRadius = radius
        set r = GetRectFromCircleBJ(loc, radius)
        call EnumDestructablesInRect(r, filterEnumDestructablesInCircleBJ, actionFunc)
        call RemoveRect(r)
    endif
endfunction
 
alright one more thing... i know this is stupid... but how do i make a spell kill the trees it goes through. Like if i make a custom spell of breath of fire or Carrion Swarm how do i make it to where the trees the spells animation passes through die.
 
You're gonna need a formula for that, a cone-shaped formula for that
Say, the Breath of Fire spell, the shape itself is a cone
So, the formula should be Pi * Radius * Side (for Area Formula) (not particularly sure about this formula)
After doing this formula, pick every trees in that particular area, and kills it

The cone is in a circle where area of circle is pi*r*r

So you will need the angle of cone.. x

x/360 * pi*r*r
 
Alright i went to and copied your trigger and edited it to where it should'v worked when the person cast a spell any tips. Heres the trigger i used
  • Mods of Thunder Clap
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Finishes casting an ability
    • Conditions
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to Dark Nova
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ground Spikes
      • (Ability being cast) Equal to Possess Corpse
    • Actions
      • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
      • Destructible - Pick every destructible within 500.00 of (Position of (Casting unit)) and do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible)
it didnt work when i used it though
 
It should be this:
  • Mods of Thunder Clap
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Starts the effect of an ability
    • Conditions
      • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
        • Conditions
          • (Ability being cast) Equal to Dark Nova
          • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ground Spikes
          • (Ability being cast) Equal to Possess Corpse
    • Actions
      • Set tempPoint = (Position of (Triggering unit))
      • Destructible - Pick every destructible within 500.00 of tempPoint and do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_tempPoint)
The difference is this:
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Dark Nova
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ground Spikes
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Possess Corpse
When you have conditions set up like this above, it will consider it as "and". Basically, ALL conditions must be met for the trigger to run.
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Dark Nova
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Ground Spikes
        • (Ability being cast) Equal to Possess Corpse
In this case, it is "or" so any of the conditions will allow the trigger to run. :)

The other parts are just to fix the leak, and the removal of the other custom script you used. Enumeration of destructibles doesn't leak, there is no object that is returned for a destructible group like there is for a unit group.

There is a leak that occurs from a variable not being nulled, but oh well, nothing you can do for that, at least not in GUI. ;P
 
Alright i got it but one more thing, I know this is totally off topic for this post but, when i was testing the destroy trees thing (which worked) my guy was killed by npcs and when he died EVERYBODY else on the map died!

Ah seems like you get the help allready i have code in my map you just need to put in.
And its done. And you set time. Also it works on soem spells that eat trees etc.

Can help import its some little jass and GUI =)
 
In worst case senarios, this results in a WC3 fatal error.
Click to expand...
No ingame spell will ever be able to fix that...

I do not mean surrounded by trees, I mean impaled by a tree. The WC3 displacement algerthim is not 100% stable (or atleast was not in the past) so I have seen many fatal errors attributed to trees respawning under a unit (impaling the unit with a tree).
