[Trigger] Gold Gain from Kill

[dude30003001]

I am having trouble having a player gain gold from killing a building but it doesn't seem to be happening and instead the owner of the building gains it instead. Please help me fix this.

• Events: Unit - A unit Dies
• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  • If - Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Rocket Tower
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Dwarf Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Orc Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Shadow Hunter
  • Then - Actions
    • Hero - Add 50 experience to (Killing unit), Hide level-up graphics
    • Player - Set (Triggering player) Current gold to 5

Your not giving gold, your setting their gold to 5, there is another trigger to add 5 to their gold

well i got that, but the Player that is killing the building is not gaining the gold at all and the owner of the building is gaining it that's what i'm not getting at all. Example: I use a hero to kill a building and gain 5 gold, but when i do that it doesn't give the gold to me at all but to the other person being killed.

Player - Set (Triggering player) Current gold to 5

Working as intended. You are giving it to the triggering player which is the owner of the triggering unit which is the unit which caused the event (as the event is based on unit death, its the unit which died).

To make the script behave like you want it to, you will need to give the gold to the owner of the killing unit. There is a native which returns the killing unit and a native which takes a unit and returns its owner.

You must change the "Player - Set (Triggering player) Current gold to 5 "
with "Player - Set (Owner of(Killing Unit)) Current gold to 5".

Or simply use the object editor line that set the given gold when you kill a specific unit-type ?

Or simply use the object editor line that set the given gold when you kill a specific unit-type ?

If you look at the script he made, you will see he wants only certain killing units to award gold for killing the building. This functionaltiy is not possible in the object editor.

So i have to make the gold trigger say something like: Add 5 to Player 1 (Red) current gold? or would it be something entirely different?

 

[Narogog]

it would be

• Player - Add 5 Gold to (owner of(killing unit)) current gold

that way it works for all players not just player 1.

 

[dude30003001]

ok that sounds like it would work, but how would i set the part (Killing Unit)?

 

[Spartipilo]

Whenever you're dealing with a 'Unit', the list allows you to pick "Event Response - Killing Unit"

 

[ForeverBeADragon]

• Events: Unit - A unit Dies
• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  • If - Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Rocket Tower
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Dwarf Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Orc Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Shadow Hunter

Think about it.

ok that sounds like it would work, but how would i set the part (Killing Unit)?

 

[dude30003001]

To: ForeverBeADragon, Don't i feel retarded for the obvious xD. I will try that and see what happens.

Edit: I am seriously pulling my hair out cause this is still not working >.<. Here is the trigger as it stands:

• Building Exp 1
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Rocket Tower
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Balnazzar
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Asmodeus
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Archimonde
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Cryptic Evil One
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Vampiric Minion
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Dwarf Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Orc Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Shadow Hunter
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Add 50 experience to (Killing unit), Hide level-up graphics
        • Player - Add 5 to (Triggering player) Current gold

 

[JGGDMakervb6]

hey why not use Gold bounty awarded

 

[Vladadamm]

This line :

• Player - Add 5 to (Triggering player) Current gold

It must be :

• Player - Add 5 to (Owner of (Killing unit)) Current gold

 

[Bribe]

Your logic is flawed. You check if "all conditions are true" and then check if a unit is a certain type. A unit cannot be two types at once, so that function will always return false. One thing you could do is change all the comparisons to "Equal to false" and set it up like this:

• If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
  • If - Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Not equal to Rocket Tower
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Balnazzar
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Asmodeus
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Archimonde
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Cryptic Evil One
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Vampiric Minion
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Dwarf Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Orc Slayer
    • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Shadow Hunter
  • Then - Actions
  • Else - Actions
    • Hero - Add 50 experience to (Killing unit), Hide level-up graphics
    • Player - Add 5 to (Triggering player) Current gold

Edit: I just realized that you also have some "Not equal to" checks in there, in which case you can use this:

• Or - (Any conditions are true)
  • Conditions -

 

[dude30003001]

ok for one you copied the trigger wrong. it should say:

• Building Exp 1
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Rocket Tower
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Balnazzar
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Asmodeus
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Archimonde
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Cryptic Evil One
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Vampiric Minion
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Dwarf Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Orc Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Shadow Hunter
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Add 50 experience to (Killing unit), Hide level-up graphics
        • Player - Add 5 to (Triggering player) Current gold

Also what do you mean by this:

• Or - (Any conditions are true)
• Conditions

 

[Bribe]

How is it that I "copied the trigger wrong"? I copied it and edited it.

• Building Exp 1
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Or (Any conditions are true)
          • Or - Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Rocket Tower
            • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Balnazzar
            • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Asmodeus
            • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Archimonde
            • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Cryptic Evil One
            • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Equal to Vampiric Minion
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Dwarf Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Orc Slayer
        • (Unit-type of (Killing unit)) Not equal to Shadow Hunter
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Add 50 experience to (Killing unit), Hide level-up graphics
        • Player - Add 5 to (Triggering player) Current gold

 

[dude30003001]

ok, sorry for the misunderstanding... so again what do you mean by this:

• Or (All Conditons are true)- Conditions

Do i need to add something here? or take out something from original trigger?

 

[Bribe]

You need to add "or" from the GUI drop-down list. It should be at the bottom of the list - "or - multiple conditions"
