[Trigger] Help with risk trigger

[sangir]

How would u guys suggest making a trigger for taking an area in a risk game
if ur unit moves on an uncoupied area then u gain control of it, im trying to do this without 100 triggers

It is easy with jass.
You basicly have to pick all circles and add an event to a trigger that triggers when a unit enters X distence to the circle. After that you have your units, all you need to do is your actions.
Probably easier with jass than GUI but I do still think you can do it using the method above in GUI.

tx man i dont know jass lol

What do you suggest for an event? For 'unit comes within x range of unit' you can only reference a single unit. I can think only of trying periodic events, but that seems to be rather ineffective and tedious...

'unit comes within x range of unit' * number of circles i mean.
You can use a loop action to add the event to the trigger even in GUI and so is very simple and quick to use.

Why don't you divide the map to pieces with Regions. You only have to create one trigger, where you include all 'Unit enters <Area>' events. In the action, you just set some variables.

Make a destrutable look like a flag then do this trigger, then place ONE flag at the position of each place you can take over.

• RISK Flag
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.20 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Destructible - Pick every destructible in (Playable map area) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Distance between (Position of (Random unit from (Units of type Footman))) and (Position of (Picked destructible))) Less than or equal to 100.00
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in ((Region((X of (Position of (Picked unit))), (X of (Position of (Picked unit))), (Y of (Position of (Picked unit))), (Y of (Position of (Picked unit))))) offset by (0.00, 0.00)) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Footman)) and do (Actions)
              • Loop - Actions
                • Unit - Change ownership of (Picked unit) to (Owner of (Picked unit)) and Change color
          • Else - Actions

Wow. This trigger was crazy to come up with and your going to have to change all the stuff to fit with your map. Right now this trigger would not work- Change all that footman junk to your hero(searcher people) Then change one of the other footman to the things that you get control of when taking over the land. I don't know-- I don't really understand what you were trying to do with your map and the trigger shows. MEH.

NO ONE USE blackchoas 's TRIGGER!
It leaks like a beaker made of air and will lag like mad if there are 100s of units and stuff on the map.
10 groupes are leaked and over 25 locations are leaked every second so it is a health hazard.
Also I do not see how this will work. . .

Stick to my method, probably safer. . .

Calm down. I wasn't expecting them to use it. I was showing basically how to do it. There is practically NO WAY to do this without making a region for each spot then a trigger for each part saying what to do when unit enters region. My trigger was just showing a basic way to do it, though halfway through it the trigger started to confuse me LOL. So I just did some more random stuff that in the context would make sense.

I even said there that---

If you want the best one for risk, you should ask for help in the JASS section with it, it would be alot simpler if you use it

without jass, it may take quite awhile, and be alot more difficult.
