[Trigger] Detect Locust

[Mage_Goo]

Well, I'm working for a spell and get a question.
Locust Swarm (Ulti of Crypt Lord) is summon a unit, yes? How can I detect the summoning of that unit?
Is a trigger like this will work?

• Detect Locust
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Spawns a summoned unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Summoned unit)) Equal to Locust
  • Actions
    • -------- Do Action --------

thank you

Make a unit group, it's easier to work with it.

There is a function to enum locust, Enum non-locust, and Enum locust and non-locust,,

I mean, to detect the summoning of unit summoned by Locust Swarm.
You know, the skill that create many bug that can't selected and will automatically attack nearby enemy unit.
I already know to detect unit with Locust ability.

Summoned unit I think.

 

[Mage_Goo]

So, the trigger i post on my first post can detect it?

Test it

And add some game message(if it does something)

I don't think a unit group can pick locust units ...

 

[Reaper2008]

Locusts can be enumerated, so they can be added to a unit group.

Locusts can be enumerated, so they can be added to a unit group.

Only in JASS

Eh, yes.

But the script can be added to the map file you see in the trigger editor, and called through GUI with a simple custom script.

 

[Mage_Goo]

Don't be tricked just because the Locust enumerator is in JASS. Basically, GUI can enumerate the locust.
When i see PurplePoot locust enumerator, i see it can be done in GUI too.
Both "Unit owned by Player" and "Unit of Type" can enumerate Locust unit.
Like this one:

• Actions
  • Set Group = (Units owned by <Player>)
  • Set Group = (Units of type <Player>)

You can use some simple trigger to make sure picked unit match you like, like only pick unit in 500 range, or kind like that.

EDIT: Now I'm test the Detect Locust with Summon unit event.
EDIT2:No, It doesn't work. any other ideas?
