Add up how many units....

[Koopa124]

Hey guys, I'm looking for 2 triggers.

When a player types "-kills" and the game will display how many enemy units they have killed.
And when a player types "-losses" it will tell them how many units they have lost.

Can anyone help? +rep for help

This updates kills and deaths:

• Untitled Trigger 005
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = (Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
    • Set Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)

This displays kills:

• Untitled Trigger 006
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -kills as An exact match
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -kills as An exact match
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -kills as An exact match
    • ...
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Player_Group = (Player group((Triggering player)))
    • Game - Display to Temp_Player_Group the text: (String(Kills[(Player number of (Triggering player))]))
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_Temp_Player_Group)

Displaying deaths is similar.

You can use concatenate string to print more than the number on the sccreen.

^ Thanks, I'll test that out soon!

I can't get Deaths to work. Could you post that trigger for me? And then what type of condition do I need to prevent players from killing their own units to boost the stats?

Deaths display would be:

• Untitled Trigger 006
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -losses as An exact match
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -losses as An exact match
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -losses as An exact match
    • ...
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Temp_Player_Group = (Player group((Triggering player)))
    • Game - Display to Temp_Player_Group the text: (String(Deaths[(Player number of (Triggering player))]))
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_Temp_Player_Group)

Preventing killing own units:

• Blah
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is attacked
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • ((Owner of (Triggering unit)) is an ally of (Owner of (Attacked unit))) Equal to True
        • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to (Owner of (Triggering unit))
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Triggering unit) to Stop

Also prevents player to attack/kill their allies.

^Check the condition

You could do it like this, if you don't want to prevent units from attacking allies:

• Untitled Trigger 005
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Killing unit))
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = (Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
      • Else - Actions
    • Set Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)

Events
Unit - A unit Dies
Actions
If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
If - Conditions
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Killing unit))
Then - Actions
Set Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = (Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
Else - Actions
Set Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)


That's what I have to adding up the Killed units, and deaths still remain at 0. Here is the function to display the deaths:
Events
Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -deaths as An exact match
Actions
Set Tally_Group = (Player group((Triggering player)))
Game - Display to Tally_Group the text: (Units Lost: + (String(Deaths[(Player number of (Triggering player))])))
Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_Tally_Group)

Use [TRIGGER]Trigger goes here[/TRIGGER] tages.

You might have Set Deaths = ... at the IF/THEN/ELSE, it should be after that.

 

[PvSvN]

you need to move your

• Set Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)

in with the other one

 

[Maker]

^How do you know that? That's not the issue anyway

 

[PvSvN]

well look at the trigger he posted

• Events
• Unit - A unit Dies
• Actions
• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
• If - Conditions
• (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Killing unit))
• Then - Actions
• Set Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = (Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
• Else - Actions
• Set Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)

when it should be

• Events
• Unit - A unit Dies
• Actions
• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
• If - Conditions
• (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Killing unit))
• Then - Actions
• Set Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = (Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
• Set Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)
• Else - Actions

 

[Maker]

How do you know it should be there?

And moving it doesn't solve the issue of the counter not updating.

 

[PvSvN]

im only reading it from the trigger he posted so it can't update the death counter if its in the else part of the if/else/then unless he kills himself

 

[Koopa124]

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Dies
• Actions
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to (Owner of (Killing unit))
    • Then - Actions
      • Set Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] = (Kills[(Player number of (Owner of (Killing unit)))] + 1)
    • Else - Actions
      • Set Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (Deaths[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)

That's what I have to adding up the Killed units, and deaths still remain at 0. Here is the function to display the deaths:

• Events
  • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -deaths as An exact match
• Actions
  • Set Tally_Group = (Player group((Triggering player)))
  • Game - Display to Tally_Group the text: (Units Lost: + (String(Deaths[(Player number of (Triggering player))])))
  • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_Tally_Group)

Here is it in trigger form. So what should I do?

Edit: Nevermind, misread an earlier post. Fixing it now.
