If Unit Equal to Pet(1-24)

[catlover47]

In my game each player can have 1 pet. It stores the unit ID of each player's pet as the array Pet(1-24), 24 being the max number of players. However, when the pet dies, it needs to set Pet(Player Number) back to no unit so they can get a new one.

Is there any way in Conditions to have the trigger check if "Dying unit Equal to Pet(Any Number), rather than having to have 24 lines checking Pet(1), Pet(2), Pet(3)..? Or know of a better way to do this?

Thanks!

• Set Pet[(Player number of (Triggering Unit))] = No unit

Add all pets to a unit group. If the dying unit is in the unit group then it is a pet and can be removed from the unit group and have the array entry for the player set to no unit.

Good idea, but I have to differentiate between the player character deaths and their pets and player characters can be many different unit types.[/COLOR][/SIZE]

That works, thanks!

He meant Pet[Player number of triggering player], not Triggering Unit. You could also do Pet[Player number of owner of triggering unit].

Events:
A unit dies

Conditions:
Triggering unit equal to Pet[player number of triggering player]

Actions:
Set Pet[player number of triggering player} = No Unit

I think you understand this, uncle, but in a trigger run by any event that internally uses TriggerRegisterPlayerUnitEvent Triggering Player == Owner of Triggering Unit.

Yeah, that's why I did it the correct way in the trigger example, lol.

But yeah I should've said that they're the same thing instead of saying "you could also do".
