The problem is that it's not counting the kills.
Known bug or am I doing something terribly wrong?

Moin moin =O

It doesn't count? Have to say, that I can't see any mistake at all. Replace (Dying unit) with (Triggering unit) and are you sure, you choose and/or kill the correct wolves? =O

Else I can't see a fault and normally it should count it, wouldn't be the first time, that someone do this simple thing ....

 

[mckill2009]

looks OK to me...

• Kills
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Footman
  • Actions
    • Set Kills = (Kills + 1)
    • Multiboard - Set the text for MB item in column 2, row 1 to (Kill Spirit Wolves + ((String(Kills)) + /4))
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Kills Equal to 4
      • Then - Actions
        • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
      • Else - Actions

To make your trigger performs better:

• (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Spirit Wolf

Instead of Dying unit, use Triggering unit

• Set I_Wolves = (I_Wolves + 1)

Put this in "Else - Actions"
Same goes to that multiboard action

EDIT:
I am thinking that you kill a different unit, maybe you confused that unit with another custom unit ?

 

[Vengeancekael]

The Dying Unit doesn't matter, I just changed that to see if Triggering Unit was the problem.
I'll try what defskull said.

 

[defskull]

No, EVEN if you didn't put that action in "Else - Actions" function, it still keep track of the count per kill...
Weird..
It must be the problem with that Event
I'm thinking... it has to do with incorrect unit types
Perhaps, you created a custom ones, but used as reference as default ones

 

[Vengeancekael]

I tried other units, it's always the same problem.

 

[Wazzz]

I think I may have a solution.
Have you initiated the variable you're trying to add to as a value? Otherwise, you're not adding it to anything. Try initializing it to 0 in a separate trigger or something.

 

[mckill2009]

I dont see any problem at all but try removing the Multiboard[1] and replacing it with non-array, see if it works...

or maybe you didnt set the multiboard variable?...

 

[defskull]

I think I may have a solution.
Have you initiated the variable you're trying to add to as a value? Otherwise, you're not adding it to anything. Try initializing it to 0 in a separate trigger or something.

A variable of Integer or Real if we doesn't set it at any trigger, its value is default by 0
So, we can use it, of course

 

[Garfield1337]

Are you sure it doesn't count? Maybe it's multiboard problem.
Add a debug message in trigger

• Game - Display to (All players) for 30.00 seconds the text: (String(I_Wolves))

 

[Vengeancekael]

If it would be working then the quest update should show up when it has reached 4.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Debug the damn trigger... Add lots of text like garfield recommended to see what exactly does not work with it.

I say it reaks of a thread crash somewhere.

The one on the left works and as far as I know, the 2 triggers are almost the same.
And I debugged the trigger, nothing happens apparently.

 

[PurgeandFire]

If nothing happened, then that means that the spirit wolves are not dieing. Or that means that you selected the wrong unit for the field.

Just add a display timed text for String(I_Wolves) and see what it displays. If it never displays, it either means that I_Wolves doesn't have an initial value (check the variable editor), or it means that the trigger isn't running. That means that the condition isn't being met.

 

[Vengeancekael]

Oooh, I think the problem is that they have the reincarnation skill...

I'm a fucking idiot.

 

[Dr. Boom]

Joke, but good that this mysterious problem seems to be solved =)

 

[defskull]

I thought so...
The trigger seems fine, I told you it has to do with another else not with the Trigger Editor
Nice pic btw, +rep !

 

[mckill2009]

made my ass laugh!, haha...

 

[Wazzz]

Haha, glad you figured it out ^^
