Gate House Problems

[LilNickY]

OK in my map i am using gate houses to open and close my gates
I can make them open and close perfectly fine but when the gate dies all they have to do is hit the open or close skill again and the gate is fully repaired...
Any way i can fix this without using JASS?

sure, just turn off the gatehouse trigger for that unit when it dies, the turn it back on when it is repaired

Try this:

Iron Gate Open
    Events
        Unit - A unit enters Iron Gate <gen>
    Conditions
        ((Entering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    Actions
        Destructible - Make Iron Gate (Diagonal 2) 0000 <gen> Invulnerable
        Destructible - Open Iron Gate (Diagonal 2) 0000 <gen>

Iron Gate Close
    Events
        Unit - A unit leaves Iron Gate <gen>
    Conditions
        ((Leaving unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    Actions
        Destructible - Make Iron Gate (Diagonal 2) 0000 <gen> Invulnerable
        Destructible - Close Iron Gate (Diagonal 2) 0000 <gen>

You can make it invulnerable in Map Initialization

Wont work - the gates i use are destructables not units, and they are open they are considered as dead to warcraft

Try this:

Iron Gate Open
    Events
        Unit - A unit enters Iron Gate <gen>
    Conditions
        ((Entering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    Actions
        Destructible - Make Iron Gate (Diagonal 2) 0000 <gen> Invulnerable
        Destructible - Open Iron Gate (Diagonal 2) 0000 <gen>

Iron Gate Close
    Events
        Unit - A unit leaves Iron Gate <gen>
    Conditions
        ((Leaving unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    Actions
        Destructible - Make Iron Gate (Diagonal 2) 0000 <gen> Invulnerable
        Destructible - Close Iron Gate (Diagonal 2) 0000 <gen>

You can make it invulnerable in Map Initialization

I dont want to make the gates invulnerable, and it also has nothing to do with units entering anything

Thanks for all the help though so far - no matter how wrong it may be
Please tell me if i have made a complete ass of myself and am missing the point to one of your posts . . .probably have

Yeah, i am also wondering about how this will work - please reply!

 

[LilNickY]

I gave it another go today but i still can't work it out.

Put a If in the Open/Close trigger, which detects if the gate is alive, and only if it is alive the open and close work. Thats so easy.

Red - when the gate is open it is considered dead by warcraft, so that doesnt work
