[Trigger] How does If, then, else multiple functions work?

[Ramsey]

I dont get why the "else" is there. Is it there so if all conditions ARE NOT true then it does else actions and if it is true it does then actions?



Yes i know this is noob question but small things matter

Because you can have "unit is a building equal to false" and than do actions, dunno like special effect, damage...

It basicly just checks something...

hmmm ... i'll say it this way if "IF" conditions are true do "THEN" action else do "ELSE" actions

lets see an example :
If : i ate a pizza
Then : i am not hungry
Else : i am starving

Hope you understand

That's kind of a weird comparison, but ok. To give you an in-game example: If you got you map 'split up' in 2 regions (Region1 and Region2) and you want units it Region1 to have health regeneration and unit in region 2 to have mana regeneration. Then you'll get a trigger like this:

• If/Then/Else
  • Events
    • Time - Every 2.50 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Region1 <gen> contains (Position of YourUnit)) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Set life of YourUnit to ((Life of YourUnit) + 35.00)
      • Else - Actions
        • Unit - Set mana of YourUnit to ((Mana of YourUnit) + 1.00)

Correct, if 'IF' is not true, the 'Else' will be the action, and if 'IF' is true, then 'Then' actions will run.

What the hell is the question? It's common sense...

@all
IF : checks the condition. If the conditions listed in this category are true, then it triggers the THEN codes.
THEN : lists of the trigger code(s) if the condition(s) that I've mentioned is/are true.
ELSE : lists of the trigger code(s) if the condition(s) that I've mentioned is/are false.

BTW, sorry for my bad language...
