[Trigger] defeat condition not working properly

[[K40$]-Spectre]

Hi all.

My defeat condition trigger does not always seem to work correctly. Sometimes a player is defeated after losing a building while he/she still has other buildings. This trigger is from/for my Starcraft Hybrids maps;

• Defeat
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Defeat_Group = (Units owned by (Owner of (Dying unit)) matching ((((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True) and (((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to True)))
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Triggering unit) is A structure) Equal to True
        • (Number of units in Defeat_Group) Equal to 0
      • Then - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Player + (Name of (Owner of (Dying unit)))) + has been killed!)
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Number of units in Defeat_Group) Equal to 0
        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Not equal to Neutral Hostile
        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Not equal to Neutral Victim
        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Not equal to Neutral Extra
        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Not equal to Neutral Passive
      • Then - Actions
        • Game - Defeat (Owner of (Dying unit)) with the message: All your buildings ...
      • Else - Actions
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Defeat_Group)

Anyone know what the problem is? +rep ofcourse

try use "triggering unit" instead of "dying unit"
since dying unit usually causes a problem when there's two unit die at the same time

You can try counting/picking all structures owned by x player. If a structure is destroyed/dead deduct one from the counted structures. If structures of x player reaches 0, defeat him.
Now, if x player finishes constructing a structure and he is not yet defeated, add 1 to the counted structures.

Post a replay of the game where bug happens.

, interesting idea, gonna try that.

, there's not much to see, I get the error e.g. after cancelling the building of a structure.

 

[Ceday]

Is that happening everytime you cancel a building structure?

, yes, I just checked it again, and it is indeed the case.

 

[Ceday]

There must be another trigger which causes defeats.Can you disable this trigger and test again?Because I tried with this same trigger but it is not defeating me nor displays message when I cancel building.

Btw I am using human type build but I don't think it matters.

Edit: Oh wait...
Are you saying you are getting defeated when you cancel your FIRST building?You said player is getting defeated when player has other buildings.

I do now the following as eubz suggested, which seems to work correctly (I run Count buildings init once in the beginning of the script):

• Count buildings init
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 13, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set DefeatGroup_new[(Integer A)] = (Count structures controlled by (Player((Integer A))) (Include incomplete structures))

• Count buildings
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins construction
  • Conditions
    • ((Triggering unit) is A structure) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Set DefeatGroup_new[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (DefeatGroup_new[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] + 1)

• Defeat new
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • ((Triggering unit) is A structure) Equal to True
    • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Neutral Hostile
    • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Neutral Victim
    • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Neutral Extra
    • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Not equal to Neutral Passive
  • Actions
    • Set DefeatGroup_new[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] = (DefeatGroup_new[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] - 1)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • DefeatGroup_new[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))] Less than or equal to 0
      • Then - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Player + (Name of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))) + has been killed!)
        • Game - Defeat (Owner of (Triggering unit)) with the message: All your buildings ...
      • Else - Actions

If your map is Altered Melee, this is an absolutely perfect thing:

Shouldn't you check if they cancel the buildings? Otherwise you could just cancel one building and now you can't lose because the integer will always be one more than how many buildings the opponent can destroy.

Edit: Aple seem to have struck gold.
