help with footies/td

[Definant_Killer]

I am having some issues with my footies map. I cant seem to make them stop spawning after enemies kill the barracks(at which they spawn). I also need triggers for hero selection at the begining of the map. As for my td i cant make the units that spawn move downwards. And whats the trigger for taking lives? How do you create lives at that. Thank you for all of your help. I have read these forums before and a lot of you have great directions. I needed to get bounty for my footy map and i figured out through another post =^)

For the footies, I'm guessing the problem is that your trigger is detecting decaying buildings, but I'd need to see it for sure.

Don't quite understand what you mean by "Move downwards" just create the units, then order then to another region.

For lives, just create an interger variable...and...

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters CreepEnding <gen>
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Lives = (Lives - 1.00)

Then make a trigger that checks if lives is below 0, and call defeat.

1) in your spawntrigger, add the CONDITION: Boolean - Barracks 001 is alive equal to true
this will detect whether the barracks are still alive or already destroyed. When they're destroyed, the trigger won't run anymore

thanks guys i REALLY appericate it..iron_warrior i meant like there at the top of the map and in a normal td they progess down towards your life region and i need to know how you make them move downwards on the map towards the life region so they either take lives or die on the way down. I am not the best direction giver but hey hope u understand thanks again guys

maybe use

• Unit Group - Order (Last Created unit group) to Move to Your Region

mmm i tried the boolean trigger and it didnt work keeps spawning the bastards
i already tried that trigger razorbrain it only takes 1 unit from my group and if i try to put it in the number of times i have units spawn it wont work =^(

 

[iron_warrior]

Can you show the trigger? It depends what method you're using to spawn them. Just right-click the name of the trigger (Just about "Events") and do "Copy as Text" Then put the type [ trigger ] (Minus the spaces), paste your trigger here, and [/ trigger ] to close it. I'll probably be able to help if I can see it.

i got them to move down its just i dont know how to actually make lives and now i ran into another problem i cant seem to get the units that spawn to not attack and make them fit into the spaces between the towers sec lemme get u the trigger

• Time - Every 0.10 seconds of game time
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in Region 000 <gen>) and do (Unit Group - Order (Units in Region 000 <gen>) to Attack Magnataur Destroyer 0012 <gen>)

• Unit - A unit enters Region 004 <gen>
• Unit - Kill (Entering unit)

 

[Eleandor]

show me your spawntrigger, because the boolean should work...

 

[Definant_Killer]

• Time - Every 8.00 seconds of game time
• (Barracks 0000 <gen> is A structure) Equal to True
• Player - Limit training of Heroes to 1 for Player 1 (Red)
• Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Position of Barracks 0000 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees

 

[iron_warrior]

That's because Barracks is always a structure, even when it's dead (I think)

Try using "is Alive" and it should fix it fine.

 

[Definant_Killer]

yup ironwarrior that fixed it thanks a ton to the both of you
