Making more slots for creating units

[Arieegee]

Hi
so idk if this topic is here i couldn't find it, but how do i make more slots for unit pick
i have too many heroes and i need to put them all in, but buildings have only 12 slots which 1 is rally and 1 is cancel and i don't want ot make a new building
so is there a way to make something like arrow that will move you to more slot space in the building if so then how do i make it.

Check out the map I uploaded, it contains a Page system I created for training units.

To get started:
1) Copy and Paste the Building Page System Folder (Trigger Editor) and the Next Page Button and Previous Page Button Units (Object Editor) into your map. Make sure that "automatically create unknown variables" is enabled in your File/Preferences before doing this.

2) Edit the Variables in the "BPS Initial Setup" trigger between CONFIGURE and STOP HERE.

3) Edit the Variables in the "Add Barracks To System" trigger between CONFIGURE and STOP HERE. If you want to add a new structure to the system then simply copy and paste this trigger and configure it.

    • Set bps_UnitType[12] = Ghoul
    • Set bps_UnitType[13] = Crypt Fiend
    • Set bps_UnitType[14] = Abomination
    • -------- - --------
    • -------- STOP HERE --------
    • -------- - --------
    • -------- Run System --------
    • Trigger - Run BPS Run <gen> (ignoring conditions)

Also, make sure your Structure has the Next Page Button and Previous Page Button UNITS added to it's Units Trained list in the Object Editor. And I THINK you need to place them at the very top of the list so they're the first two units trained.

Note: I use a Barracks as an example in my map but I'm sure it will work fine with Altars/Heroes.

Some minor flaws with the system. They shouldn't cause many problems:
1) You can't switch Pages while training 7 Units at a time. This is because the Next Page/Prev Page buttons are actually Units themselves, and the trigger requires that you "begin training" them, but if your queue is full then you can't do that.

2) Since I can only make the Units Available/Unavailable for training by PLAYER that means that switching pages will affect ALL other buildings owned by that player of the same type.

3) If you press Next Page while on the Last Page it will bring you back to the 1st Page. However, pressing Previous Page while on the 1st Page won't do anything.

I assume that's what you wanted. Does it work or did you want something else?

Edit: I uploaded v.3. This one is a lot better!

Are you using the latest version of Warcraft 3? Also, don't use the Reforged editor.

Edit: I'm sure it has to do with the patch. The Reforged editor shouldn't be the problem.
