yes sure i will try to explain,example reds top barrack units go to right,and blue top barrack units go to left,red wins blue destroyed,red need go to down to fight with another player.If i made that trigger with player owned condition this will work for red,but not works for another players unit,like red units go down yes works,but orange attacking to top too well in my triggers cant attack,go to down like red and stucks. I hope you understand :)

I think i need save location trigger or another i dont know but i think i need different triggers.

Use a case statement with a movement order for each player? Also you are leaking locations, which for something run as often as a movement trigger is bad and needs immediate fixing.

Case statements in JASS are basically if, elseif (many times), else, endif. In GUI the same result can be achieved by nesting conditional if blocks inside the else part of the previous test.

I understand the issue. When a player base's destroyed, the unit will remain in the base and don't continue to any other bases. Correct me if I mistaken.
I suggest Trigger the units to run following the 360 degree technique, it doesn't seems to be complex except it can't be applied well for troops from middle zone

How I would do it.

Setup the following.
Player Variable (Array) - Containing all players
Region Variable (Array) - All the creep destinations
Boolean Variable (Array)

Make sure the array index of the each player variable corresponds with the associated region variable. (eg. Player 1 would be PlayerVariable(1), player 1's creep destination would be RegionVariable(1))

Spawn units for every player, actual spawn triggers go within loop. (Although Im sure you already knew that :p)
  • For each (Integer Variable) from 1 to Player Count, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
Now all you need to do is check if the Boolean Variable is true, if true you spawn units, if false you don't. When a player is defeated, you set the Boolean Variable of the associated player to false.

  • Set PlayerStillalive[(Player number of (Defeated Player)] = False

And for mid you use the same thing, if the player on the opposite side have been defeated you make the units in mid change destination.

Btw i need help guys :( thanks kino but you didnt solved my problem i think my problem is different. I need a 360 degree region movement system. But i don't know how to create.

Nope, I get your problem.
What I posted is exactly how I would create a 360 degree movement system that scales based on players alive.
If it isn't working, its because you did it wrongly.

Okay, but i don't understand this points,player 1's creep destination would be RegionVariable(1)) hmm this regions will be only his base? Because unit spawns from 3 regions for every player.Pff i dont understand shit.Can you give to me a small example? Please and thank you for your comments and replies.

Which part do you not understand?

If they spawn from three regions then you will need 4 region arrays instead of 2.
eg. for player 1.
Playerbase(1)
Playerspawn1(1)
Playerspawn2(1)
Playerspawn3(1)

The first region is the base location, the other three being the spawn points.
