Event: group of monsters appears

[alex1989]

I need help: please help me create an event that repeats every 60 seconds, a group of 5 tauren monsters appear on the map and after 30 seconds they disappear.

• Events
  • Time - Every 60.00 seconds of game time
• Conditions
• Actions
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Unit - Create 1 Tauren for Neutral Hostile at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees
      • Unit - Add a 30.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)

That trigger creates an event that repeats every 60 seconds. When the event fires, it will create 1 tauren at the center of the map and add 30 second expiration timer to them, this will happen 5 times in quick succession so you will end up with 5 tauren that will die within 30 seconds . If you don't want to see their death animation, you can immediately remove them upon death with this trigger.

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Dies
• Conditions
  • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Tauren
• Actions
  • Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game

If you could be more specific with what you are trying to do, that would be helpful.
If this is indeed the result you are trying to achieve, I will recommend to use your own integer variable instead of Integer A and store the location into a variable first then destroy it to prevent memory leak.

The trigger will look something like this:

• Events
  • Time - Every 60.00 seconds of game time
• Conditions
• Actions
  • For each (Integer TempInteger) from 1 to 5, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set TempLoc = (Center of (Playable map area))
      • Unit - Create 1 Tauren for Neutral Hostile at TempLoc facing Default building facing degrees
      • Unit - Add a 30.00 second Generic expiration timer to (Last created unit)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc)

whereas TempInteger is an integer variable and TempLoc is a location/point variable. "call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc)" is used to prevent memory leak.

thank you, can you help me: the monster boss has 4 spells and you can help me when fighting the boss the boss can randomly use 1 of the 4 spells

It depends on what abilities the spells are based on. Each ability has their own unique order id, we can use that id to order the unit (monster boss) to cast the correct spell when certain conditions are met.

If you can tell me what ability each spell is based on, I might be able to help you further.
