I want to ask a trigger

[Fang]

Hi, all
I want to know how to create a trigger when:

A player have a quest, it said that player 1 must kill 150 bandits (including Rogue, Enforcer, Spear Thrower, etc...) And then when a unit owned by player 1 kills a bandit/Rogue/Enforcer/etc there will be a Game text showing "Bandits Killed = 1/150" then a unit owned by player 1 kills another bandit/Rogue/Enforcer/etc there will be a Game text showing "Bandits Killed = 2/150"

This trigger will stop when Bandits that player 1 killed are already 150

Else - Actions
[/trigger]

Dat-C3 method should work, however :

The bandits should be stored in the group or checked if it's a bandit, else the kills count all units that the player kills.
And mention questobjectiveinteger is an integer variable, it might confuses some people.

That is pretty obvious but he didn't add that because that depends on what you have to kill.
All other stuff can be used again, and again, and again.

However it is not MPI nor MUI. (Didn't expect the latter anyway.)
You should make an array instead and use GetPlayerId() or "Number of player" as index.

Good point.

I doubt it was planned by Fang for it to be MPI honestly. However, if it's for multiple players, then it's necessary.

 

[Tal'Rarity]

Well he asked for player 1 and since it isn't array based and doesn't need to be, it becomes even faster. I am pretty sure he knows how to add unit type of triggering unit is equal to bandit otherwise he's welcome to ask.

 

[Fang]

Mpi?

 

[Wietlol]

So it would work for multiple players.

MUI = Multi Unit Instanceable
This means that this spell/system will work for every unit created.

MPI = Multi Player Instanceable
This means that this spell/system can be used by all players at the same time but only once per player at the same time.

Oh thanks Wietlol
I still want to learn what's the triggers. For it

You still want to learn... what?

This gre_hurr_hurr:

A player have a quest, it said that player 1 must kill 150 bandits (including Rogue, Enforcer, Spear Thrower, etc...) And then when a unit owned by player 1 kills a bandit/Rogue/Enforcer/etc there will be a Game text showing "Bandits Killed = 1/150" then a unit owned by player 1 kills another bandit/Rogue/Enforcer/etc there will be a Game text showing "Bandits Killed = 2/150"

This trigger will stop when Bandits that player 1 killed are already 150

That trigger simulates a simple quest objective.
Because it is a quest objective, the trigger is only on when the quest is active.
The quest objective is "Kill 150 orcs." (Orcs being Peons, Grunts, Shamans and Raiders. (for example))

So you need a trigger.
Event -> A unit dies.
Condition -> Triggering unit is a Peon or Grunt or Shaman or Raider. (Triggering unit is an Orc.)
Action ->
If QuestAccepted is equal to true Then
- Set AlreadyKilled = AlreadyKilled + 1
If AlreadyKilled is greater than or equal to RequiredKills Then
- Set AlreadyKilled = RequiredKills
- Complete Quest/Questobjective

This is a little bit different than what Dat-C3 said because this one also keeps track of how much units you have killed and how many you needed in total. This can be used for a progress bar that displays how far you have completed the quest... or just display it in text
The condition and QuestAccepted should be different for each quest.
Put in the conditions the people you have to kill.
The QuestAccepted is more like "Quest___Kill_These_Orcs___Active"

If you want more players to be able to play at the same time, you need to put varying variables in a array.
Event -> A unit dies.
Condition -> Triggering unit is a Peon or Grunt or Shaman or Raider. (Triggering unit is an Orc.)
Action ->
Set Player = Owner of Killing Unit
Set Id = Number of Player
If QuestAccepted[Id] is equal to true Then
- Set AlreadyKilled[Id] = AlreadyKilled[Id] + 1
If AlreadyKilled[Id] is greater than or equal to RequiredKills Then
- Set AlreadyKilled[Id] = RequiredKills
- Complete Quest/Questobjective for Player

If you want multiple units to be able to do the quest at the same time (counting the kills separately for each unit.)
You have to save the data separately for each unit. So you need an indexer or hashtable.
This is not really what you need and is quite complex.. so I won't explain that

btw the big text size hurts my eyes... you will pay for that!
