[General] Creep Revive at start point and has facing

[kazenokage]

does anyone here know any creep revival systems(one that can spawn the dying unit to its starting location and also with its facing direction in the starting location) +rep

You can't "revive" a dead unit like you can with a hero. You can however create a new unit to replace the old unit. There are various ways to do this.

I'll see if I can write one...

Well I made a simple system that revives units after 30 seconds of dieing. One problem I haven't fixed yet though is that units revive where they died. Ideally you would want them to revive where their "creep camp" is. Hmm...

• Unit Revival
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Revival_Index = (Revival_Index + 1)
    • Set Revival_Unit[Revival_Index] = (Triggering unit)
    • Set Revival_Point[Revival_Index] = (Position of Revival_Unit[Revival_Index])
    • Set Revival_Owner[Revival_Index] = (Owner of Revival_Unit[Revival_Index])
    • Set Revival_Counter[Revival_Index] = 0.00
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Revival_Index Equal to 1
      • Then - Actions
        • Trigger - Turn on Unit Revival Loop <gen>
      • Else - Actions

• Unit Revival Loop
  • Events
    • Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer Revival_LoopInteger) from 1 to Revival_Index, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set Revival_Counter[Revival_LoopInteger] = (Revival_Counter[Revival_LoopInteger] + 1.00)
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • Revival_Counter[Revival_LoopInteger] Greater than or equal to 30.00
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Create 1 (Unit-type of Revival_Unit[Revival_LoopInteger]) for Revival_Owner[Revival_LoopInteger] at Revival_Point[Revival_LoopInteger] facing Default building facing degrees
            • Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_Revival_Point[udg_Revival_LoopInteger])
            • Set Revival_Point[Revival_LoopInteger] = Revival_Point[Revival_Index]
            • Custom script: set udg_Revival_Point[udg_Revival_Index] = null
            • Set Revival_Unit[Revival_LoopInteger] = Revival_Unit[Revival_Index]
            • Set Revival_Unit[Revival_Index] = No unit
            • Set Revival_Owner[Revival_LoopInteger] = Revival_Owner[Revival_Index]
            • Set Revival_Counter[Revival_LoopInteger] = Revival_Counter[Revival_Index]
            • Set Revival_Index = (Revival_Index - 1)
            • Set Revival_LoopInteger = (Revival_LoopInteger - 1)
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • Revival_Index Equal to 0
              • Then - Actions
                • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
              • Else - Actions
          • Else - Actions

Edit: Fixed a small problem with reindexing unit owner.

woah thank you for that but i need a trigger (in GUI) that can spawn a dying unit where it started when the game starts.

 

[Squiggy]

To do that, you'd need to put the unit starting position(s) into the point-array on map init and work with the above system

 

[Radicool]

Ok I figured it out. I indexed unit's positions and facing angles upon map initialization. When units respawn, they'll respawn at their starting position (not where they died). New system uses Bribe's unit indexing system.

For demonstration, I changed the respawn timer to 5 seconds.

 

[kazenokage]

last question is this for multi-killing spawn or individual? +rep

EDIT1: thats what im talking about well +rep, how do i edit the spawn time im a bit confused.

 

[Radicool]

Not sure what you mean. This should work for all units. You can kill as many as you want at a time and they'll all independently respawn after 5 seconds (or whatever you set it to).

Edit: Download the map I attached and see how the system works.
