Lava Terrain Problem

[diabloj]

Hey I have an area with Lava in my map and I want to make a trigger which makes the unit
who goes on the lava to lose health or even better burn(animation) without useing regions.

The way I tried it was

• Lava
  • Events
    • ???
  • Conditions
    • (Terrain type at (Position of (Triggering unit))) Equal to Dungeon - Lava Cracks
  • Actions
    • -------- Some Actions.. --------

The problem is telling the system what the triggering unit is, without useing regions

If you see a way to make this type of trigger please post bellow and Ill ofc give +rep

• Events
  • Periodic Event - Every 0.50 seconds of the game
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do Actions
    • Loop
      • If
        • terrain type at (position of (picked unit)) Equal to (Dungeon - Laval Cracks)
      • Then
        • Unit - Damage (Picked unit) by (lava damage)
        • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to chest of (picked unit) using (immolation target)
        • wait 0.40 seconds
        • Special Effect - Remove (last created special effect)
      • Else
        • Do Nothing

If you ever find yourself in a bind like this, I learned to start with every unit on the map, and narrow your selection to what you want over a periodic event. It's a very effective method. In this instance, we only had one factor - The lava. If there are more factors (ie. player, unit type, etc.) then use Unit Group - Remove unit group. You can remove units that you dont want affected by groups, say to not target player 1, use

• Actions
  • Unit Group - Remove (units owned by (Player 1 - Red))

or to only target red, instead of picking every unit in playable map area,
do:

• Set My_unit_group = units owned by (Player 1 - Red)

and go from there.

hope this helps!
