"ps.i also need help with the control points giving income"

make an integer array with an index of 12, we will call this variable playerControllPointsInt

whenever a controll point is killed, tell the map to add add 1 to the array at an index of the player number of the owner of the killing unit and subtract 1 from the array at an index of the player number of the owner of the killing unit

Then make a periodic time event. Use a for next loop to give resources to each player.
For x=1 to 12 step 1
Add 15*playerControllPointsInt(x) to player(x) gold
Next

Err... I thought that programmer=mathematician+computer...
It's hard to explain this without arrays/integers/add/subtract etc., because the computer is made from 0s and 1s!

ok ty guys but now how do i make it so that when a control point is killed it changes teams, i forget exactly how i had it triggered b4 but everytime it died it went to team 2's control and i made sure that the triggers all didnt say go to team 2 or anything like that, but now i tried to make it again but it changes control wen its only attacked once -.-
(Event-Unit-controlpoint is attacked/ Unit-controlpoint life becomes less than 75. Condition-attacking unit belongs to an ally of player red equal to true. Action-Change ownership and color of controlpoint to red/ set life of controlpoint to 100%)
wat am i doing wrong or is there a better way to do it?
