Adding multiple rewards to claim to a single building.

[IamFierce]

On my map, I have a system in which a player receives rewards in a building. As it stands, at the moment, I am adding abilities to the building, the player casts the ability, and then the trigger function allows them to gain the reward by detecting the spell. The issue with this system is that if multiple rewards, using the same ability, are inside it and clicked, they both go off.

My question is, is there a better system or option than using abilities?

Thank you!

You could create a integer Variable,

If multiple players need to recieve rewards make it an array, then when you use the variable set the array to,
Player number(owner of unit(triggering unit)))

Now I assume you want the rewards to only go off once.

Event:
-Unit finishes casting an ability
Condition:
-Ability being cast equal to Blah
-Interger less than 2
Event:
-If, than, else, multiple functions:
If Condition:
-interger equal to 0
Then:
-Reward #1
-Set Interger equal to 1
Else:
-Reward #2
-Set Interger equal to 2

you can base the ability of the "channel" ability and change the order strings for each one, that way they don't trigger at the same time.
i think you can find some help on how to use it here: To Channel, or not to Channel: teach me!

You could check for OrderID instead. To get the orderID, use this trigger:

• Get OrderID
  • Ereignisse
    • Einheit - A unit Erhält einen auf ein Objekt zielenden Befehl
    • Einheit - A unit Erhält einen auf einen Punkt zielenden Befehl
    • Einheit - A unit Erhält einen Befehl ohne Ziel
    • Einheit - A unit Fängt an zu bauen
  • Bedingungen
  • Aktionen
    • Custom script: call BJDebugMsg(I2S(GetIssuedOrderId()))

This should display an integer ingame, which you can use like this:

• Unbezeichneter Auslöser 001
  • Ereignisse
  • Bedingungen
  • Aktionen
    • Custom script: if ( GetGetIssuedOrderId(TriggerUnit()) == 851983 ) then
    • -------- Do stuff... --------
    • Custom script: endif

Each ability has it's unique orderID.

Thanks very much for both helps. I’m going to give these two options a try.
