How do I move all player-owned units to next region?

[saberslash117]

Its simple, a player pulls a lever and it transports the player to the next section of the map. How exactly can I grab all player-owned units wherever they are in the map and make them move instantly to the next region. The last part is easy, but I can't figure out the event and conditions. The units can be ANYWHERE on the map, but once the lever is pulled, how do I grab them all and do the proper action script. How best to approach?

Something like this should work

• Actions
  • Set VariableSet TargetLoc = (Center of <your_region>)
  • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
  • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units owned by <your_player> matching ((((Matching unit) is A structure) Equal to False) and (((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True)).) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to TargetLoc
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TargetLoc)

Those custom scripts are to prevent memory leaks.
TargetLoc is a 'point' variable

So how the Levers work in warcraft 3 is that the lever position changes when the destructible dies.

Here is an example on how to do it. There should also be a mouse button event that runs when a player clicks the Lever, but I cant remember at the moment how to do it.

• Lever pulled
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order targeting an object
    • Unit - A unit Is issued an order with no target
  • Conditions
    • (Destructible-type of (Target destructible of issued order)) Equal to Lever
  • Actions
    • Destructible - Kill (Target destructible of issued order)

• Lever dies
  • Events
    • Destructible - Lever 0000 <gen> dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- Actions here --------
    • Game - Display to (All players) for 5.00 seconds the text: Lever Pulled!
