Building must be in radius of.........

[Xesirin]

Does anybody have a good trigger for this? I want to make it so that a specific building can not be built unless it is in a certain radius of another building type.

I've tried a bunch of stuff, but the usual result is that the builder gets stuck in nullspace (????????) and unusable.

Any advice?

There is a thread like this every weak. Maybe you should use the search thread button..
Here is an idea: Give your building an aura, if your builder is in the aura, let it build the building, if not cancel it.

I'll be sure to try searching first........ Although watching Naruto fall from a tree repeatedly would be hilarious.

Anyways, the problem tends to be the fact that I can't find any code that tells the builder to 'cancel building'.

you cant just cancel a building but you can stop production i think... ill brb and edit this so i can show you.

If the building is not under the effect of your aura simply cancel it. Note: that way you won't get back 100% of spent gold/lumber. You have to make another trigger to give back all your resources OR look up the gameplay constants field which determines the percent of the resources you get back when canceling a building.

I understand the cancelling idea. What I don't understand is how you script it to cancel. EG. what command is used?

Its orderid is 851976. I don't know how is it done in GUI, and I don't feel like checking it.
