Creating Units Help

[Monky-Master]

Im making a td, and I cant make the units spawn.

The trigger is like this

Event- Timer Expires
Condition- Level = 0
Action- Create 10 Footmen at Spawn 1

BUT that doesnt work, the timer expires, yet no units are created, does anyone know whats wrong?

based on that small snip i can't say much but only ask a few questions

is the timer set to the right variable? even if a timer expires if theres no refence it won't fire
is level actually set to 0

Yea, the timer is set to the right variable.

I used

Set timer = LastStartedTimer
Start timer as a repeating timer that will expire in 35 seconds
Create Timer Window for timer
Show timer window
------------------------------------
For the level thing I just made it
Set level = 0

umm, as long as it really is the variable you set as the timer expiring, and level is = to 0, then there as absolutely no reason the trigger won't run when that timer expires

but here are a series of debug steps you can go through
1) switch the event to time elapsed or typed message or something
-- if it works, that means your timer is not set or not expiring
2) remove the condition
-- if it works, that means your condition is false
3) add a text message in the trigger actions
-- if you see the message that means somethigns wrong with making the units[/img]

Your setting 'timer' to the LastStartedTimer Then your starting the timer...

Wouldn't it make much more sence to start the timer then set timer to LastStartedTimer?
