Hello,

I am new here,i just wanted to ask about a point value.

I make an action ( set units custom value ). And now , is that the same thing as point value?

Because i put units custom value to 2,and i create another trigger in which i put condition check units point value and that trigger never works.

Any help?

No, Custom Unit Value is a wonderful thing and it has nothing to do with Point Value. It's just an Integer or Real type variable (I can't remember which) assigned to a unit.

Use a 'Unit's custom value' or something like that among the Integer or Real conditions.

Edit: Correcting myself: Point value of a unit is a unit's life / mana.

I believe point value is the amount of points added to a player's unit score for owning/killing that unit.

Hmm, thanks for correcting me, I was wrong the second time as well. Okay, so the point value of a unit... well..
The point value of a unit is found in the object editor, units tab, and the point value field is near the bottom of the unit's stats fields.
I'm almost sure it has the same purpose as the custom unit value property, you can just set this in the unit editor.
