Detecting slot useage and unit removal

[Lafeet]

how do i make it to where if the player slot is unused, then remove everything that the player owns.

i dont know how but this is what i got,

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
    • (Player 1 (Red) slot status) Equal to Is unused
    • (Player 2 (Blue) slot status) Equal to Is unused
    • (Player 3 (Teal) slot status) Equal to Is unused
    • (Player 4 (Purple) slot status) Equal to Is unused
    • (Player 5 (Yellow) slot status) Equal to Is unused
    • (Player 6 (Orange) slot status) Equal to Is unused
    • (Player 7 (Green) slot status) Equal to Is unused

thank you, but what do i put for the action part to remove all the units that the unused player owns?

I dont know if this is right, but can it be done like this?

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players matching (((Matching player) slot status) Equal to Is unused)) and do (Unit Group - Remove all units of (Units owned by (Matching player)) from (Units in (Entire map) owned by (Matching player)))

Just to warn you that leaks a player group and a unit group
Gotta set the player group and then the unit group then use that action replacing those sections with the variables, and then removing the variables.

 

[Lafeet]

can you post it up in trigger wrapping so that i may understand more clearly please.

        • Loop - Actions
          • Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game

This shoud be leakless.

 

[Lafeet]

i did that and the players that are unused are still there. Its empty slots, but units i still see the empty slot's units there at the start point. What am i doing wrong?

 

[Need_O2]

what was its name
something like
Custom script: set bj_wantsDestroyGroup = true
for removing leaks
anyway I rather locals etc

 

[Lafeet]

umm i dont understand......

What don't you understand?

 

[Lafeet]

I still dont understand why it does this..

You should try using a periodic timer, see if that helps, because if it checks at the very beginning of the map, and units are created after that for that player, it could cause problems, this is what you should have:

Player unused
    Events
        Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
    Conditions
    Actions
        Player Group - Pick every player in (All players matching (((Matching player) slot status) Equal to Is unused)) and do (Actions)
            Loop - Actions
                Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Entire map) owned by (Picked player)) and do (Actions)
                    Loop - Actions
                        Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game

 

[Lafeet]

nope, it still doesnt work.

 

[Ch33ri0s.]

Post your trigger, I want to see what you have.

                • Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game
              • Else - Actions

I used that in one of my maps and it works nicely.

 

[Dark Hunter1357]

I think that the problem is that its "unused", instead of "not playing".

 

[Lafeet]

i think so too, but would it work in the same way, say, an empty slot, and you just start the game, but the empty slot units and stuff are still there in the game.

~~Edit

wait i actually got it and it works
