• Respawn
• Events
  • Unit - A Unit Dies
• Conditions
  • (Owner of (Triggering Unit)) Equal to (Neutral Hostile)
• Actions
  • Wait (time) Seconds
  • Set loc = Position of (Triggering Unit)
  • Unit - Create 1 (Unit-Type of (Triggering Unit)) for (Owner of (Triggering Unit)) at loc Facing (Facing Angle of (Triggering Unit)) Degrees
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_loc )

Where loc is a global Point variable

So if the enemy is player 12 could it like

Unit-A unit owned by player 12(brown) dies

Also can i add a region into it like
Unit- A <reg> and not just a single unit

 

[PurplePoot]

Yeah, then it would be player 12.

And what do you mean by the latter?

Im also lost on the
Set Loc=

Where do i find set loc? or set <reg>

the loc that he set is a variable of the type "point" that he created. To create variables, find the little green X in the trigger editor, then it wil open another menu. Find the X+ and then you can set the properties of your variable. He sets the point so it gets stored for the trigger to use later. Also, I would set loc first before the wait, idk why but I always do.

If I may add-on to this: So, I'm also making creeps on my maps and upon seeing this thread, I was somewhat confused about the "unit" part of:
unit - unit dies. So does that mean that I have to make a separate event for each type of hostile creep? For example: Okay, so my gang of creep consists of 2 Murlock Nightcrawlers and a Dark Troll Shadow Priest. So in the Trigger Editor, would I set one unit event for the troll priest and a separate one for the Murlocks? or is there a way to make a SINGLE event for both the murlocks and the priest?

Purpy, your trigger could be better with the event:
Unit owned by Neutral Hostile dies
without any conidtion.
But you probably know the GREAT disadvantage of that "system":
It resurrects creeps where they die, and not where they were placed initially. Creeps can even get far from their camp...

If you have hostile creeps (Neutral Hostile) placed at the WE initially (not at map initialization or in-game), you can use my system:
