How to count how much wood is havested?

[Aztec_devil2000]

I have tried the below method and it does not work! I have also tried "Begins casting an ability" as well. +Rep, +credit i would like to know how to do this! Thankyou

• Counting Points 1 Arena
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Begins channeling an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Harvest (Gold and Lumber)
  • Actions

Did you tried Starts the effect of an ability ?

I have tried that, is this method just not possible with warcraft?

Do you mean like checking lumber on Orc Campaign collecting 50000(?) then Killing Cenarius?

Edit:

EDIT : If this is what you want, how about creating a variable (real) say, Lumber.

Event - Map Initiation
Condition - ?
Action - Create Multiboard with name Lumber Collected
(put necessary other actions to suit your needs*)
Set Lumber = Lumber of Player Red
(other multiboard need*)
Show Multiboard to Player Red
(*SORRY I CANNOT REMEMBER THE FULL CODE. THIS IS OUR MOM'S COMPUTER. SHE DON'T HAVE WARCRAFT TO VERIFY OTHER ACTIONS THAT I THINK THAT DOESN'T EXIST.)
Event - Every 0.5 seconds of gametime
Condition - Lumber is Equals to 50000 = False *
Action - Show to Multiboard Lumber to Player Red*
IF THEN ELSE
If - Lumber = 50000
Then - Game show message - " You have reached 50000 Lumber " for X seconds
Else -

I'm trying to make a scoring system, and how much wood you've havested is part of the score. For example,

Every time worker havests wood add 1 to wood havested.

Ah. Sorry for that. XD.

So did you try Wisp style? Change it into +1 lumber only per interval. If you don't want it to be seen try a dummy unit. Plus it is easier to use this technique because it doesn't have triggers.

How would i do that? Sorry i've never done that before

Check the skills for the Night Elf Wisp. You will find the skill for the wisp's harvest. Then Edit it to your needs.

l------l

After that create a multiboard (Edit of 3rd post, or find it on google)
to show players your current Lumber.

Peace! -Da Fist-

Wait, if each time the Peasant is harvesting (hitting) the trees, he will get a resource on his hand (carrying a sack of gold or stack of lumber), where will he return this resource too?

So, the player will get x2 the resource ?
One time for hitting the trees and one time for returning the resource to your Town Hall ?

Even if that was true, i wouldn't know because it displays as 0.

There is a way to detect an order string which is harvest.
But when it is ordered from feets away from the trees, is still fires that Event order making it will gain +1 lumber even before the Peasant is cutting the tree.

Do show, all i want it to do is to show how much lumber has been havested on a leaderboard and to have in total of how much wood was havested.

I copied this trigger from orc's campaign

Trigger

• Victory Condition
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
    • (AAAP_Orcs Current lumber) Greater than or equal to 15000
    • InCinematic Equal to False
    • GameOver Equal to False
  • Actions
    • Trigger - Turn off (This trigger)
    • Set GameOver = True
    • Unit - Make Grom Invulnerable
    • Wait 2.00 seconds
    • Trigger - Add Victory Q <gen> to the trigger queue (Checking conditions)

This trigger doesn't help me, i need to count each lumber that is havested to be given a position/rank/score at the end. There has to be a way!

Harvest abilities does not behave as normal abilities, just like reincarnation it can't be detected. The best is to do:

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Wood_Harvested = (Player 1 (Red) Lumber Harvested)
    • -------- Update... --------

I hope it helps and have a nice day.

Thankyou, but how will i know if its havesting, and say there are 30 workers havesting at differnet intervals? Or better yet, is there a system where i can count the wood a different way using *Player wood is equal to blah blah*.
And thankyou.

 

[Aztec_devil2000]

Ahh i have found a way! This trigger will find out if a havester is havesting or not! Thanks to all who has helped me.

I'm pretty sure there is a global variable for this already that Blizzard use in the standard scoreboard. So you might need a custom script action for that. I'll look into it when I get home.
