I got a floating text that's come over dying unit.. But if multiple units die only last texts is removed. Tried with variables but still didn't work.
can anyone help me? This is what i tried:
  • Kill
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit Dies
    • Conditions
      • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Hunter
    • Actions
      • Hero - Set (Killing unit) Hero-level to ((Hero level of (Killing unit)) + 1), Hide level-up graphics
      • Player - Add 1 to (Owner of (Killing unit)) Current lumber
      • Player - Add 100 to (Owner of (Killing unit)) Current gold
      • Game - Display to (All players) the text: ((Name of (Owner of (Dying unit))) + ('s hunter was owned by + (Name of (Owner of (Killing unit)))))
      • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads Ahh! above (Dying unit) with Z offset 0.00, using font size 10.00, color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%), and 0.00% transparency
      • Set die = (Last created floating text)
      • Wait 2.00 seconds
      • Floating Text - Destroy die

You must set for each text one Arry

  • Events:
  • Unit - A Unit die
  • Actions:
  • Flooding Text - Create Floding Text about <dieing Unit> <TEXT here> <OFFSET here>
  • Set F_Text[1] = last create flooding text
  • Wait 10 sec
  • Remove F_Text[1]
U must create a variable:

F-Text
Flooding Text
Array YES

Hope u understand^^

no need for locals. no need for arrays. no need for jass.

just set its "permanent" property to false and it will be automatically destroyed. (also set lifespan to 3 sec, direction to 90 deg and speed to 100 or whatever)
