[General] Does unit event only available for pre-placed unit?

[Geshishouhu]

Does the following event only available for pre-placed unit?

call TriggerRegisterUnitEvent(gg_trg_swzydie,gg_unit_H02S_0001,EVENT_UNIT_DEATH)

 

[IcemanBo]

Yes.

 

[WaterKnight]

No? Preplaced units are the same as any other unit, only there is additional editor-only information for them (about the placement) and they are created on mapInit.

 

[Geshishouhu]

So,, yes or no.... >_<
Waiting for more comments~~~Coz my trigger, the unit event one, does not fire...

 

[WaterKnight]

Changing the variable afterwards does not help, as this does not modify what the event has been registered on. And you often are good to go with the playerunitevent-variant:

call TriggerRegisterPlayerUnitEvent(gg_trg_swzydie, Player(0), EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_DEATH, null)

This makes the trigger fire for any unit of Player(0)'s death.

Do you mean the death of all the units controlled by Player(0)? What if I just detect a specific unit's death? Adding a condition?

GetTriggerUnit() returns the died unit within the trigger's conditions and actions on this event. Yes, you can ofc fish out the unit you target.

BTW in case you didn't know, use AnyUnitEvent for multiple units.
