Its simple its when an archer starts attack has a minor chance to play one of 3 types of sounds but with 20 or 30 archers they scream everytime... any tip to improve this trigger?

what is the problem? it screams every time bc you set it to those odds. it has a 5% chance of going off for one archer (3/60). so 5% times 20 archers = 100% chance that a sound will be played. why is that a problem?

No problem for now... I am asking a suggestion to make this trigger better

Maybe give the attacking unit a dummy aura (no visual effect or stats) for 0.5 seconds and check that unit must not have this buff in order to trigger?
Because auras linger for a second or so, it should only trigger every once in a while (because that's what you wanted, right?).

Also, you can set the size of the aura to whatever is reasonable.

I'd play a 3D sound on the (Attacking unit) and then Turn off the trigger for a second.

• Sound - Play 3D Sound...
• Trigger - Turn off (this trigger)
• Wait 1.00 second
• Trigger - Turn on (this trigger)
