Detecting the Unit that...

[ShadowFlare]

I have a neutral unit have the Sell Unit ability, but does not have any units to sell, but i gave the unit a ability, where a player can cast it, but how do I detect the player who casts it? Because they don't own the unit?

You can start by making this more clear.

He has a neutral unit. E.g. Goblin Laboratory.
That unit has a spell. E.g. reveal (its what the goblin thing has isn't it?)

Now he wants to detect the player who uses the spell.


I am not sure about that but just give triggering player a chance
It sometimes work although I don't understand why myself :/

 

[overload119]

Eh, one work around I can think of is seeing when the spell is cast then finding out the closest unit to the labrotatory.

 

[DarkAngelAzazel]

Hmm I don't think that will work :/

because 10 players can have units around and they all can use it although only one of them is the nearest :/

easy....

EVENT
unit enters playable map area
CONIDITON
unit type of entering unit equal to your unit


entering unit - unit that is summoned
player that summoned a unit - owner of entering unit

Ok, I'm pretty sure this will work.
What I'm doing is making the shop sell a dummy unit that is immediately destroyed after purchase. I then find the player that purchased the unit!
BTW, since Pharaoh was the last to post, I'm pretty sure I'm not necroposting.

Please... Don't be a dick....

Anyway Alien, thank you so much, that was the best answer I got, and it was Relevant detail. Don't get beat up by these guys, half of them are talking out their ass.

Proof of how this is relevant: The question was answered to an unanswered question. The response was descriptive as well as helpful. + rep Alien, and seriously Pharaoh?? Do you not have anything else better to do?....
(Not trying to be rude... just tired of shit like this going on.)

Off topic but Relevant:

The part in Teal is hypocritical is it not? I'm allowed to post in threads within 6 months of the thread's most recent post but can only be 15 days after the most recent reply?.... *FacePalms*

I say to the moderators and admin of this site: Phail. With a capital P!
