Income system help

[shermellow]

I am trying to create a building that every 8 seconds after being built gives you +10/+15/+20 (after upgrades) of a custom resource using a multiboard but i dont want them to give that value all at the same time. Instead i want them to give that value every 8 seconds from the time each building is finished being built. I am very new to triggers and have never used JASS or anything else. Please need help as i have no idea of how to even start this trigger... I have thought about maybe using an ability to determine the time each building gives their income but i dont know how to do that either, and no forum post i've read has really hit this one on the spot.

Make a unit that can be trained called "Income", when this unit is finished training, you add income and remove the unit. When the building is built, order it to train 2 of this unit, and every time it finishes training a unit, order it to train the unit again.

Have you tried my Income Generator (signature) ?
But it does not support Upgrades yet.

 

[shermellow]

no i havent tried it yet i actually decided to go with something else instead to get the resources.....

Can you explain in details what do you meant by this words ?

 

[shermellow]

i mean i did not try it. I mean to try it on another map other than the one i wanted this for. I decided to go with a different resource gathering system than this style for my current project.

Awesome, this made me waste my time. Why even ask someone to take there time for you and waste it when you aren't even going to take the time to replicate/ask for the map?

 

[shermellow]

You didnt waste your time, i just havent tested it out yet. My reasoning for that is because after i finish my current project i have another project in mind that this will be SUPER useful for and i am very thankful you took the time to make this trigger.
