I want to create Contol Points.

[Saithron]

Hey guys, im creating a new map that's hero only, but i want to add control points, kinda like the ones in the risk games where once you destroy whoever owns that CP you then own it, but i wanted mine a little different.

Basically the control points would be have 3 building plots, a main building, and 2 defense towers (Control Points unowned would basically be Circle of Powers).

What i wanted to be able to do with these are;

1: Only heroes to be able to buy them, i don't want any summoned units to be able to walk up and grab them.
2: The main building must be destroyed first if owned by an enemy, you cant just walk up, destroy a tower then build your own tower, you need to destroy all 3 buildings, then before you can start building defense towers you need a main building first.
3. Also i want each control point to build different buildings depending on hero. Blood Elf could build blood elf building, undead build undead or any custom building i wanted, but each hero gets their own buildings.

Main Base Control Point

Another thing i wanted to add was your "main base", but since my map is a hero map, and i wanted each hero to have different custom buildings as their main base, how do i make it so;

1: You start of with no main base, but once you have selected your hero, your main base would then build itself.
2: Custom buildings, how do i make it so i can choose what building will be build for what hero.
3: Defeat, how would i go about making it so if your main base is destroyed, your hero will no longer be able to respawn, so once he dies its GG.

So i hope anyone can help me with most of these and i would much appreciate it.

Do you have any experience with triggers? It seems to me you're asking us to make most of your map for you

Yeah i have a little bit of knowledge. I've been going through a lot of this sites tutorials and all and reading up, i've managed to trigger hero taverns, multiboards, creature spawns and pathing etc for my map. Its just i have no clue where to start for Control Points.

1. When a unit enters the region, check if it is a hero - simple.

2. When a unit enters the region, check if main building is alive equal to false

3. Ever heard of if-then-else?

Thanks, those should help. I'll try and fiddle around with the trigger editor and see what i can do.

A little, not really though. Also i needed to be able to build building from the Control Point main building, not just walk up and it takes over type thing.

Make the control point main building upgrade to each of the races.
