[Trigger] -Kill Command/Hero Selector

[xFiReFoXx]

Hello, im new here and working on my first map. I used to do alot of mapping in Starcraft but it seems alot is different in WC3 Editor.

Im having trubble with a -kill command. (which is also getting me confused on alot of other triggers just like that)

*not sure how to do the trigger tag stuff* so here is my -kill trigger

• Kill Player Red (Name)
  • -Events
    • -Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -kill as An exact match
  • -Conditions
    • -(Triggering unit) Equal to (Matching unit)
  • -Actions
    • -Unit - Kill (Triggering unit)
    • -Game - Display to Player Group - Player 1 (Red) the text: You have used the -...
    • -Wait 40.00 seconds
    • -Hero - Instantly revive (Revivable Hero) at (Center of Hero spawn <gen>), Show revival graphics

I know somthing is wrong in the actions and i think Conditions too >< i can't figure it out.

And also, i have a hero selector trigger (That works) but its pretty messy, i was woundering if there was any better way of adding the triggers, cause i have to add 1 trigger for every hero and every player color

e.g. Red Archer
Red White Wizard
Red ect.....
Blue Archer
Blue White wizard
Blue ...you get the point..


And help would be wounderful. Thanks.

• Untitled Trigger 003
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) Selects a unit
  • Conditions

    • Set Temp_Unit_1 = (Triggering unit)

• Untitled Trigger 004
  • Events

This kills the selected unit.

Alright, but just a quick question, IS THERE a better way of doing

e.g. Red Archer
Red White Wizard
Red ect.....
Blue Archer
Blue White wizard
Blue ...you get the point..


>< for triggers.

Could you post the trigger?

Here is what it looks for the spawn swordsmen red

• Spawn red chooser
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
    • (Player 1 (Red) slot status) Equal to Is playing
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Peasant for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of hero chooser <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Make (Entering unit) Invulnerable

Its pretty simple, but it just takes ALOT of triggers for all the players and all the heros

10 players x 4 heros (probably gonna up that to 8 heros soon) = 40 triggers...it seems a bit much. and if i do add 4 more heros that would be 80 triggers!!!

Edit: By the way the make unit invulerable doesn't work and ideas on how to fix that also?

 

[En_Fuego]

Use 'Last Created Unit' instead of 'Entering Unit'.

Can you explain what you're doing that takes so many triggers...?

Its a hero selector, at game start, the game creates 10 hero selectors (if they are here) to pick 1 out of the 4 heros. the one i have above is where Player red picks the Swordsmen hero.
