How to Limit only 1 unit-type per game

[Prince_Webby]

For example,i only wants 1 Master Rifleman in 1 game,when then Master Rifleman die,only you can train it again in barrack(for example),after you trained that,you are not able to train the second 1.

Player - Limit Training of Unit.

@GhostThruster
If we use "Player - Limit Training of Unit", can we possibly get back the unit ?
I mean, the trigger uses what concept ?
Max unit at ONE time OR Maximum unit throughout the game ?
If Max unit at one time, the limit for Z unit must NOT more than X value
If Max unit throughout the game, once the unit is created to a X value, the unit can NEVER be trained ever again
Well, too lazy to test it out (but not lazy to type... weird o.0)

i think it should be...

• Unit - A unit starts training a unit

AND

• Unit - A unit dies

coz what if the player wants to train another unit before it finishes?

 

[defskull]

• Unit - A unit Begins training a unit

If you use this, what if the player suddenly CANCELS the Training Order ?
The WHOLE trigger would be bugged
That's why I used Finishes training a unit because, even if the player cancels it, the trigger won't start

• Unit - A unit Dies

If I use this Event, the system can be bugged too
A unit Dies event will go on if the game detects ANY unit in the map, DIES
Meaning, if some creep dies, the trigger will be fired, thus, ruining the WHOLE trigger
That's why I saved the Footman (trained unit) to a variable
So I can use it to check once every 0.03 seconds whether the SPECIFIC unit dies or live

Here is the real text:

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player - Limit training of Footman to 1 for Player 1 (Red)

It should be reversible.

I've uploaded test map to test it out =D
if you have any question regarding the map, feel free to ask =D

 

[Prince_Webby]

oh,thanks everyone who replied. XD

 

[mckill2009]

then if the player cancels, ENABLE the training of the unit again...

in the 'A unit dies', put conditions of course...

 

[defskull]

Okay mckill2009, just so that your theory is correct, create a test map =D

Okay mckill2009, just so that your theory is correct, create a test map =D

Gladly, here it is...
