[Trigger] Lives and Levels

[Zrinik5]

Was wondering if anyone could help me out with setting lives on a TD. I want 30 lives and i would like it displayed in leaderboard with the number of lives the player currently has. Also, another hive workshop member is helping me with levels but he is doing it in Jass scripting. Was wondering if anyone could show me a the first few level triggers GUI style. Thanks i greatly appreciate all help

Here's the basics for you:
You'll need to create a Real variable in this case I called it RedLives

• Unit - A unit enters (RedRegion)
• (Unit-type of (Entering unit)) Not Equal to (HumanBuilder)
• Set RedLives = (Redlives - 1)

Then another one for when the person loses

• Game - RedLives becomes Equal to 0.00
• Game - Defeat Player 1 (Red) with the message: Defeat!

For the generic TD this is how you'd want to set up the levels

• Time - Elapsed game time is X seconds
• Unit - Create X AttackerLevel1 for Player 12 (Brown) at (AttackersSpawn1) facing Default building facing degrees
• Unit Group - Order (Last Created Unit Group) to Attack-Move To (RedRegion)

That's the basis for all TDs, from there you can change the attacking units / regions in between / pathing etc.
Note that this will also cause leaks, if you'd like I can write another trigger for you that stops the leaks.

idk how to get set redlives = redlives -1 i cant find the option to put the -1 there =^(

 

[Zrinik5]

could someone explain how you do the trigger tag? i knew once but forgot sorry, and if someone shows me how to trigger tag then i can show you what i have because another hive workshop member diod the levels and units that spawn with the levels in JASS triggering, the problem is level2+ wont spawn and i guess wont move, any help is appreciated

SetVariable = Value

Then after you select RedLives for the variable, click on value and it should say ((RedLives) + 1), then click on the + and select -.
Hope that helps!

Edit: For the triggers you need to go advanced and then tag the text you copied with TRIGGER] pasted trigger here [/TRIGGER
with brackets [] surrounding both TRIGGER and /TRIGGER

First of all, if you have a Jass code post it in Jass tags using this syntax - [jass][/code].

Now I wonder if you even understand whats written there, don't just post converted triggers for no reason >.<

And since we started with this, why the hell don't you use a loop ?

local integer i = 1
loop
      exitwhen i == 36
      if udg_level == i then
               call level[i]()
               return
      endif
endloop
