Hello again fellow members!
So i need help with another trigger that i just cant figure out...

I created this trigger
  • Event
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 10.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set tempPlayerGroup = (All players matching (((Matching player) controller) Equal to User))
    • Set tempPlayer = (Random player from tempPlayerGroup)
    • Player - Make tempPlayer treat Player 1 (Red) as an Enemy
  • -------- above action is looped to all players, 1-11 --------
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_tempPlayerGroup)
This trigger chooses a random player, but I have this trigger which creates a unit for every player, tho I do not want that unit to be created for that Random player (tempPlayer).

This is how my create unit trigger looks like
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 10.00 seconds
  • Conditions
    • (Player 1 (Red) slot status) Equal to Is playing
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Elf for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of spawn <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
TLDR; Create unit for every player without the picked random player

loop through all players and check if the picked player is temp player. In the else block create the unit for that picked player.

Can you please do that in TRIGGER? Im having a hard time figuring out how to actually do that :/ Anyways thanks for such fast reply!

Ok i think i got it?

  • Time
    • Elapsed game time is 10.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer B) from 1 to 11, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (Player Equal to tempPlayer) then do (Do nothing) else do (Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees)
Tho this only creates a unit for Player 1 (Red), but i know how to change that

That is a correct way to do it, but where you have it creating for player 1 (red) needs to be changed

  • Melee Initialization
    • Events
      • Time - Elapsed game time is 10.00 seconds
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • For each (Integer B) from 1 to 11, do (Actions)
        • Loop - Actions
          • If ((Player number of (Player((Integer B)))) Equal to tempPlayerNumber) then do (Do nothing) else do (Unit - Create 1 Footman for (Player((Integer B))) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees)

This leaks.
  • (Center of (Playable map area))
Also Don't use integer A/B. They are slow and less efficient than your own custom integer.

The region is changed to my own. Also, rite now im gonna stick with the integer A/B, Im not that experienced with creating/using variables.

Center of youRegion leaks also. Not only is Integer A and B bad but they can bug. Just go to the variable creator and make TempInteger type Interger and go do For each "custom integer" and plug in TempInteger
