[Trigger] making units pick up spawned items

[PrisonLove]

im trying to make a trigger in which if a unit comes within X range of a power up item, it will pick it up. I do not want to do this with a periodic trigger because then it interferes with another trigger that is in place. so far i have come up with this but it doesnt work (and i know why)

• pick up item
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Right-Click (Picked item)

• pick up item add event
  • Events
    • Time - Every 5.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set PlayableMapRegionVar = (Playable map area)
    • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
    • Item - Pick every item in (Playable map area) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Item-class of (Picked item)) Equal to Powerup
          • Then - Actions
            • Trigger - Add to pick up item <gen> the event (Unit - A unit comes within 400.00 of (Picked unit))
          • Else - Actions
    • Custom script: call RemoveRect(udg_PlayableMapRegionVar)

now i know that a unit comes within 400 of picked unit will not work. i need to know what to set this to so that it will work. I can't find a Unit comes with X of Item function. If this needs to be done in JASS thats fine, but i would like someone to help me out with that, since im not the most experienced JASSer.

You can do this:

• Pick Items
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.10 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Group = (Units in (Playable map area))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Group and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set Unit = (Picked unit)
        • Set Point = (Position of Unit)
        • Set Rect = (Region centered at Point with size (400.00, 400.00))
        • Item - Pick every item in Rect and do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Set Item = (Picked item)
            • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
              • If - Conditions
                • (Item-class of Item) Equal to Powerup
              • Then - Actions
                • Unit - Order Unit to Right-Click Item
              • Else - Actions
            • Custom script: set udg_Item = null
        • Custom script: call RemoveRect(udg_Rect)
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)
        • Custom script: set udg_Unit = null
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Group)

And this won't interfere with anything else.

actually that will interfere with this trigger:

• attack nether ball position
  • Events
    • Time - Every 2.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set TempPoint = (Position of NetherBallCarrier)
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in AIGroup and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Picked unit) Not equal to NetherBallCarrier
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To TempPoint
          • Else - Actions
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPoint)

This is the the most important ai trigger so i need nothing to interfere with this one. i cant have a periodic trigger for this, is there any way to do it without a periodic?



EDIT: actually, after looking at that trigger more carefully it may just work. I'll be trying after class. thank you.


EDIT2: This worked, thanks a lot!
