All this is done with triggers.

• Stuff
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer LoopIntA) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Race of Player(LoopIntA)) Equal to Human
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Create 1 Custom Town Hall for Player(LoopIntA) at (Player(LoopIntA) start location) facing Default building facing degrees
            • Player - Set Player(LoopIntA) Current gold to 750
            • Player - Set Player(LoopIntA) Current lumber to 750
          • Else - Actions

LoopIntA is an integer variable that you have to create yourself in variable editor.

i cant set the condition part properly

 

[deathismyfriend]

what are u trying to set for conditions ? Also if u have an event for map initialization u shouldnt use conditions.

plz show us ur triggers when u change stuff so we know what ur doing. It will help so we can more easily solve ur problem

 

[RobiWizzard]

i cant get the condition part... can i get step to step pictures?

Use Trigger tags, it makes seeing what you have much easier!

I believe your problem is that you seem to have a variable named "PlayerLoopIntA" that's not what Xonok meant.

What they want is for you to go to the action called
-

• For each (Integer BLANK) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions

BLANK should be a variable named LoopIntA of type Integer

-Next
Xonok is saying use an ITE statement to do a Race comparison
-Click on the blue "Race of Player 1 (Red)"
-Click on the blue "Player 1 (Red)"
-Click Function, scroll and find "Conversion - Convert Player Index To Player"
-Click on the blue "1"
-Select the LoopIntA variable you made prior

And now everything should be the same as Xonok had it!
(Be sure to change the create unit with the proper Player(LoopIntA))

i did it but i get like 12 buildings instead of 1

@ Xonok, you forget to fix the location leaks.

 

[RobiWizzard]

can anyone helpwith a start location leak?

 

[Xonok]

It's only 12 leaks, which is soo minor in the long term, but okay.
If it creates 12 town halls, then you forgot to change who the town hall is created for.
I also added another condition so it wouldn't in any case create town halls for unused slots.

            • ((Player(LoopIntA)) slot status) Not equal to (!=) Is unused
          • Then - Actions
            • Set TempPointA = ((Player(LoopIntA)) start location)
            • Unit - Create 1 Town Hall for (Player(LoopIntA)) at TempPointA facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
            • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPointA)
          • Else - Actions

You can also do it this way, but using a loop is generally easier.
What a loop does is that it simply repeats an action for a few times, so you wouldn't have to do things 12 times in a row.

Agreed, it's more complicated with nightelves and undead. I could show you if you wish.

Btw, you can post triggers much easier by just rightclicking the trigger name inside the trigger (The thing that was highlighted in your last pic)
and then selecting "Copy as text".
Then you just paste it into your post and put trigger tags around it.
Trigger tags are those:
[TRIGGER]Your trigger code here[/TRIGGER]

there is a trigger for haunting gold mines but there isnt any for entangling gold mines. what i suggest is that you create a custom version of the entangled gold mine that is quick to build that you trigger, then disable afterwards. i could create it for you and then post the trigger if you want. the system for custom start i can also create because i use it myself.(at least i did once.) i am very patient when it comes to helping people.
