How to make a player loose when he has no more units.

[Paillan]

That's my question, I tried with a Trigger that checks every 1 sec if a units owned by player is empty and if it was it should defeat that player, if not keep running the trigger, but it didn't worked... I also would apreciate a way to make a player win when he is the last human player who is playing (my map has 2 PC player's) thanks.

this is a more general one... affects any player that reaches 0 units and does not use a player group iteration

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Dies
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Set tmpPlayer = Triggering Player
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • (Number of units in (Units owned by tmpPlayer) Less than or equal to 0
    • Then - Actions
      • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Player Name(tmpPlayer) is out of ...
    • Else - Actions

BTW, the unit group leaks...

If the players are P1 and P2, this should work.

• Untitled Trigger 125
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Player number of (Triggering player)) Less than 3
  • Actions
    • Set PLAYER = (Triggering player)
    • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Number of units in (Units owned by PLAYER matching (((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True))) Equal to 0
      • Then - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • PLAYER Equal to Player 1 (Red)
          • Then - Actions
            • Game - Victory Player 2 (Blue) (Show dialogs, Show scores)
          • Else - Actions
            • Game - Victory Player 1 (Red) (Show dialogs, Show scores)
        • Game - Defeat PLAYER with the message: Defeat!
      • Else - Actions

but I have 12 players LOL, so I have to repeat that trigger or/and make it check for every player?

Contradicting information.

Keep track of how many players there are. When a player is defeated, subtract the player count. When it is 1, you have a winner. You could use a player group for that.

Oh okey, and I am sorry, I should have said AI players, so computer controlled players, my bad

 

[Paillan]

Sorry for double post but I quit. I can't get it to work. 'ill leave the map here... maybe you know what I am making bad.

Well as far as I can see, your "win" trigger doesn't have any triggering event.

For your defeat trigger, the game engine doesn't register a unit as being dead when it is killed for some reason. You can however change the trigger condition to check for how many units a player has that are ALIVE, and this works.
