INCOME SYSTEM

Status
Not open for further replies.
Income is just a simple Integer Array. Increase it whenever a Player trains a unit or does something that should add Income.
  • Events:
  • Every 10 seconds
  • Actions:
  • Pick every player in All Players
  • Add PlayerIncome[Player number of picked player] Gold to Picked Player
Then I assume you're increasing the Income by training units.
  • Events:
  • A unit is trained
  • Conditions:
  • Unit Type of Trained-Unit equal to Shaman
  • Actions:
  • Set PlayerIncome[Player number of triggering player] equal to PlayerIncome[Player number of triggering player] + 3
^This trigger increases the Players Income by 3 whenever they train a Shaman.

A system for doing this would require two more variables and a configure trigger:
UnitType = Unit Type Array
Income = Integer Array
  • Events:
  • Map Initialization
  • Actions:
  • Set UnitType[1] = Shaman
  • Set Income[1] = 3
  • Set UnitType[2] = Footman
  • Set Income[2] = 1
  • Set UnitType[3] = Abomination
  • Set Income[3] = 10
Then change the "A unit is trained" trigger to Loop through all of the possible units and add the corresponding Income.
  • Events:
  • A unit is trained
  • Actions:
  • For Each IntegerA from 1 to 3 do
  • If Unit Type of Trained-Unit equal to UnitType[IntegerA] then
  • Set PlayerIncome[Player number of triggering player] equal to PlayerIncome[Player number of triggering player] + Income[IntegerA]
I don't have the Editor with me at the moment so I just gave you a rough idea. It shouldn't be too hard to look up these Actions though, Search For Text for similar words.

This works but it add only 1 gold even i trained unit soo many
 
Post your trigger.

Also, I forgot to mention in that "For Each IntegerA" Loop you need to set 3 to be equal to the total number of Trainable Units that your system uses.

See how I used 3 units, Shaman, Footman, and Abomination. If you used more units then you need to change 3 to however many you used.

Another thing. I think this might be the problem. Instead of doing "Unit type of Trained Unit" you need to do "Trained unit-type".
  • (Trained unit-type) Equal to Footman
Edit: You may be using "Sold" instead of "Trained", sorry I should be asleep right now :p
Anyway, I attached a map with a working example.

What is the latest world editor?

Are you selling units or training them?

Train = Training a Footman from a Barracks.

Sold = Buying a Troll from a Mercenary Camp.

I posted new triggers above. If you create all 4 of those triggers exactly as I did then it will work.

Also, try posting your triggers again, but use this How To Post Your Trigger

In option2 you're using "Trained unit-type" in the condition when it needs to be "Sold unit".

Also, you need to use "Set PlayerIncome[player number of triggering player]". You're using "Set Income[Player number of triggering player]". Those are two different variables.

Another thing, I see "Set IncomeT[player number of triggering player]". It should be "Set Income[player number of triggering player]" with no T.

so i change then the gold is now not adding to my current gold

Delete income2. You don't need that trigger. option2 does the same exact thing.

Are you sure you're Selling the unit and not Training it?

That's why I made those two triggers.

"Train Units Option 1" works for Training units

"Sell Units Option 2" works for Selling/Buying units

Also, what building is selling/training the unit? Is it owned by you or a computer? Like is it Neutral Passive.

The building selling own by me
My example is a unit enter the region of town hall then it will instantly move to the first stage i change it to neutral passive with certain color (invulnerable) unit then it will change to my own unit after it send to the enemy

Okay I figured it out. For some reason the PlayerIncome variable wasn't working. I deleted it and made a new one JUST LIKE IT and it works now... So weird.

Oh and another thing, you had this wrong in your Time expires trigger:
  • Player - Add PlayerIncome[(Player number of (Picked player))] to (Picked player).Current gold
You had "Player number of Triggering Player" in there when it was supposed to be Picked player.

I don't know if you can open the map but I edited it for you.

i cant open the map, should i make my own i delet e the player income then remake a new one?i
or show me the trigger that you edit on my map. Are you using your reforge world editor?
 
Yeah, you can fix it yourself.

Here's what I did in this exact order:
Make a new Integer (Array) variable and call it something like "PlayerIncomeNew".

Then go through all of the triggers and replace PlayerIncome with PlayerIncomeNew.

Now you can delete PlayerIncome. Doing it like this is nice because it won't mess up your triggers.

Then do that thing I said for the Time expires trigger.

Change "Add PlayerIncome[Player number of TRIGGERING PLAYER]" to "Add PlayerIncome[Player number PICKED PLAYER]".

Since it's Pick every Player in All Players you have to use Picked Player and not Triggering Player.

Dunno, post your triggers again. I reiterate they should look EXACTLY like mine.

This should be a fairly easy system to implement.

You seem to be making small mistakes when copying it over and there's also weird issues with your map (Integer not working at ALL???). All you SHOULD have to do is look at my 4 triggers and recreate them. Look long and hard to see if they're EXACTLY the same. You don't need the "Trains Units" trigger though since we can confirm you're using "Sold Units".

Maybe that Integer bug is happening again? That could be the issue. It's a weird bug because no matter what I set it to to it always came out as 0. Even if I tried "PlayerIncome[1] = 100" -> "Display PlayerIncome[1]" it would say 0 instead of 100. Try testing that out to see if the variable is bugged again.

Also, what's stopping you from updating Warcraft 3 and opening my map?
