[General] Destroy only trees

[Nightmare Moon]

Hey everyone! I've got a question. Lets say i use this action to destroy trees:

• Destructible - Pick every destructible within 1000 of Point and do (Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible))

But i only want to destroy trees, not bridges too, so what condition could i add to prevent the destruction of bridges? Yeah i can add a condition to check if destroy a Summer Tree Wall and other walls, but it's too long. So any ideas?
+rep for help!

• Trigger 1
• Pick every destructible within 1000 of Point and do (Actions)
  • Loop
    • If Picked destructible == Summer Tree Wall
      • Destroy picked destructible

I can't use WE right now, so its not perfect :3

hehe but that's not what i had in mind! I said that i could use it but i don't wanna since i'll need to check this way every tree, i just need a common condition or function to check if picked destructible is a tree!

and add a custom script:

• Custom script: if IsDestructableTree (GetEnumDestructable()) then
• Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible)
• Custom script: endif

D4RK_G4ND4LF also has a GUI solution for this (which is actually the same, in GUI):

• Events
  • Map initialization
• Conditions
• Actions
  • -------- Initialize the dummy to check if a destructable is a tree --------
  • Set loc = (Point(0.00, 0.00))
  • Unit - Create 1 Peasant for Neutral Passive at loc facing 0.00 degrees
  • Unit - Hide (Last created unit)
  • Unit - Make (Last created unit) Invulnerable
  • Set harvester = (Last created unit)
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_loc)

He creates a unit at the map initialization:

• Destructible - Pick every destructible within 150.00 of loc and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Current life of (Picked destructible)) Greater than 0.00
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Order harvester to Harvest (Picked destructible)
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Current order of harvester) Equal to (Order(harvest))
          • Then - Actions
            • Destructible - Kill (Picked destructible)
          • Else - Actions
            • Unit - Order harvester to Stop
    • Else - Actions

Wow! That's all i can say! Since i just needed this for a spell to check if picked destructible is a tree, but the whole code, omg too much, gonna be rejected, i better then don't touch trees. But thank you very much for this, this will help me someday...

I refreshed it with a GUI solution :]

 

[Nightmare Moon]

Wow you're quick!!! I'll see this one
Edit:
hmm if i got this right then: if you want to kill some destructible a dummy is created that start to harvest it, if it's harvestable then it's a tree, right? Nice idea! Genius! But nah i hate using dummies in spells. So i guess i'll just leave the poor tress where they are. Thanks again!

It's not a dummy, it's a normal default peasant that you create in the beginning, nothing more

[Nightmare Moon]

I know it's a peasant.

You know what, you're right! I will add this to the spell! So, D4RK_G4ND4LF is the creator of this masterpiece? Need credits!

Why should he use Harvest ability when he can use Eat Tree ?

 

[Nightmare Moon]

There's no difference. But i prefer to harvest then eat, i don't like trees they aren't tasty
