how to create a limit on units?

[Demendius]

So, i've made a hero enter a region and then there will be another hero spawning.
but i wont have it so there can be more spawning and the trigger cant stop either.
anyone knows a good way to deal with this?

I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're referring to. What is it you want to happen? What is happening now?

Do you want to replace the hero when he walks in a region?

 

[Demendius]

ehm no. sorry for not being clear. i have my main character (lets call him poul)
When poul enters a region his beautiful wife shows infront of him.
But WAIT! Poul enters the region AGAIN! Another wife appears!
Pouls first wife is angry at him, so is the second?

i hope my little story made it a little clearer

hehe..
If he shall have only one wife, how about you turn the trigger off when the first wife is spawned?

That is the problem, other might want to have a wife too...

Oh, so theres more than one Paul..
You could create a UnitGroup which contains all Pauls and when one of them enters the area check if he is in the group, if yes spawn him a wife and then remove him from the Group.
If you dont know how to do this I can provide a testmap.

I guess there's 1 poul per player? If so, you can use boolean variable.

Something like this:

• Poul Meets Wife
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters Pouls wife spawn <gen>
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Poul
    • Poul_spawned_his_wife[(Player number of (Triggering player))] Equal to False
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Wife for Neutral Passive at (Center of Pouls wife spawn <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Set Poul_spawned_his_wife[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = True

Poul_spawned_his_wife is a boolean array with default value 'false'

If poul is a muslim I think there is no problem.

Else, Nichilus's suggestion with a boolean is cool.
