limiting heroes trigger not working

[takakenji]

i have a trigger that limits all players to only four heroes, and it also uses the melee trigger that limits 1 hero per type. for some reason it's not working, could anyone show me how this trigger would be done correctly?

 

[Greenwhy]

I would use an integer variable for the "only four heros" part and in the hero selection system add a condition "your_integer < 4"

do you want 1 hero type per player or only 1 hero type on the map. ie should it be possible for different players to have the same hero type? Perhaps you should post your trigger

how about RemoveUnitFromStock?
This method was used in DotA

 

[Greenwhy]

Ah cool. Does that remove the icon in the shop completely? or just reduce stock to 0 permanently?

 

[Almia]

Removes the exact unit from the shop.
So in result,you cannot see the unit inside the shop,buy it or even see the icon

is there any other way to fix this without triggers? like gameplay constants?

also, i just want 1 hero type per player, like in melee games. ex: you can only make 1 paladin, 1 archmage, 1 blood mage, etc

Add the heroes to gameplay constants and it should work.

Could you post your current trigger?

For default heroes:

• Melee Game - Limit Heroes to 1 per Hero-type (for all players)

For custom heroes:

• Player - Limit training of *unitType* to 1 for Player 1 (Red)

Limits the amount of heroes:

• Player - Limit training of Heroes to 4 for Player 1 (Red)

There's no way you can't do that without triggers.But if you change the stock cooldown to 9999 then it will do
