GUI Problem

[Miaow567]

I have a GUI problem.
I've simplified it down a bit but this is it:

• Events
• Unit - A unit starts the effect of an ability
• Conditions
• (Ability being cast) Equal to (My Spell)
• Actions
• Set Position[1] = (Position of (Triggering unit))
• Set Position[2] = (Position[1] offset by 100 towards (facing of (Triggering unit)) degrees)
• Set Enemies[1] = Units within 80.00 of Position[2] Matching unit belongs to an enemy equal true (simplified of what I have)
• Unit group - Pick every unit in Enemies[1] and do actions
• Loop - Actions
• If (all conditions are true) then do (then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
• If - Conditions
• ((Picked unit) is alive) Equal to true
• Then - Actions
• Unit cause (Triggering Unit to deal Damage to Picked unit)
• Unit - Pause (Picked Unit)
• Wait ## Game time seconds
• Unit - Unpause (picked unit)
• Else - Actions
• Do nothing

For some reason it doesnt unpause the enemy

You can't use wait in this case. You need to use a looping trigger that uses variables as a timer, or create a dummy units and order them to use Storm Bolt (with zero damage) on picked units to cause them to be stunned.

The "Unit checks" (for example Triggering Unit, Entering unit exct) disappears on memory when using "Wait" action.

You have to set Picked Unit to a variable, and then pause/unpause the unit in the variable...

 

[NO.OB]

Triggering unit is actually a "Local" value, meaning you can use it after waits. The rest is true though, you will have to store them in a variable (or, as you have done, in a unit group).

• Spell
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set UnitGroup = (Units within 80 of Point matching (((Triggering unit) belongs to an enemy of (Owner of (Triggering Unit)) Equal to True))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in UnitGroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Pause (Picked unit)
    • Wait 1.00 seconds
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in UnitGroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Unpause (Picked unit)

This should work unless you alter the "UnitGroup" variable in a different trigger during the wait,

 

[Miaow567]

Using what NO.OB said I came up with this, The unit Group "Enemies" is not used in any other triggers.

 

[Maker]

Use [TRIGGER]Trigger goes here[/TRIGGER] to post triggers.

You second "pick every unit in.." is not needed. The use of wait makes it non-MUI. The wait and the third "picke every unit..." should not be in the loop.

 

[Miaow567]

I realise that you are supposed to use Trigger Wraps, I just have things to do - I don't enjoy typing out the same trigger.
And what you said just goes against what NO.OB said..

 

[Maker]

You can copy the trigger as a text and paste it here, which is faster than attaching an image.

What I said does not go against what NO.OB said.

Post the trigger in trigger tags and I will show how to do it.

What you're doing is extremely weird. You're picking all units in the unit group for each unit in the unit group.

I told you to do this:

• Spell
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Enemies and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Picked unit) is alive) Equal to True
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Pause (Picked unit)
          • Else - Actions
    • Wait 0.50 seconds
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Enemies and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Unpause (Picked unit)

What you're doing is this:

• Spell
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Enemies and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • ((Picked unit) is alive) Equal to True
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Enemies and do (Actions)
              • Loop - Actions
                • Unit - Pause (Picked unit)
            • Wait 0.50 seconds
            • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Enemies and do (Actions)
              • Loop - Actions
                • Unit - Unpause (Picked unit)
          • Else - Actions

Now, to be honest I have NO idea what happens when you pick units in a unit group while picking units in a unit group, but it just cannot be good. Just follow my instructions properly and your trigger should work.

Off-topic: You can right-click the name of a trigger (NOT in the Left Bar that shows all the triggers, but at the top of the actual trigger) and select "Copy As Text". You can paste that between the trigger tags so you won't have to type anything
