Limits

[scarsin]

k some one just asked in a thread below how to put a limit on how many of a certain unit you can have. he got.

player - limit of training footman to 2 player 1 (red)

this is good but i have another problem
My question being can you set a limit like that to 3 different units where as for example you have footmen, riflemen, and Knights but you can only make 6 in any combination

Note:
not talking about food limits

This might work:

• Train
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Footman
        • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Rifleman
        • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Knight
  • Actions
    • Set TrainTotal[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = (TrainTotal[(Player number of (Triggering player))] + 1)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • TrainTotal[(Player number of (Triggering player))] Equal to 6
      • Then - Actions
        • Player - Limit training of Footman to 0 for (Triggering player)
        • Player - Limit training of Rifleman to 0 for (Triggering player)
        • Player - Limit training of Knight to 0 for (Triggering player)
      • Else - Actions

• Reduce
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Footman
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Rifleman
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Knight
  • Actions
    • Set TrainTotal[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = (TrainTotal[(Player number of (Triggering player))] - 1)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • TrainTotal[(Player number of (Triggering player))] Equal to 5
      • Then - Actions
        • Player - Limit training of Footman to -1 for (Triggering player)
        • Player - Limit training of Rifleman to -1 for (Triggering player)
        • Player - Limit training of Knight to -1 for (Triggering player)
      • Else - Actions

Variable: TrainTotal[] - Integer Array

Basically, when it trains a unit of that type it adds to the total of those 3 units. Once it gets to 6, it limits the training. Once it gets reduced to 5 after the death of one of those units, it will allow the training once more. (-1 allows for unlimited training)

sweet thanks man ill be sure to try that out

With that system you're able to put many units in production queue and end up having more than 6 units.

You need to play around with "Unit begins training a unit" and

• Custom script: call IssueImmediateOrderById( GetTriggerUnit( ), 0xD0008 )

^That issues cancel order.
