[Trigger] Multiboard Icons

[Saishy]

How do I set the multiboard icons to show the hero of the player?
(Hero Arena map)

I need to set a array variable with the icon path?

humm.. yeah if i actually had to trigger it i would do it like that:

• icon definition
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set herotype[1] = Mountainking
    • Set herotype[2] = Bloodmage
    • Set herotype[3] = Paladin
    • Set symbolpath[1] = ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNHeroMountainKing.blp
    • Set symbolpath[2] = ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNHeroBloodElfPrince.blp
    • Set symbolpath[3] = ReplaceableTextures\CommandButtons\BTNHeroPaladin.blp

symbolpath is stringtype array var (strings taken from object editor)

• multiboard icon set
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Do Multiple ActionsFor each (Integer B) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Do Multiple ActionsFor each (Integer A) from 1 to 3, do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Set group = (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Matching unit) is a Hero) equal (==) True))
            • Unitgroup - Pick every unit in group and do (Actions)
              • Loop - Actions
                • Multiple FunctionsIf (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                  • 'IF'-Conditions
                    • (Unit-type of (Picked unit)) equal (==) herotype[(Integer A)]
                  • 'THEN'-Actions
                    • Set group2 = (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((((Matching unit) is in group) equal (==) True) and (((Matching unit) is in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by (Player((Integer B))))) Gleich (==) True)) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) equal (==) herotype[(Integer A)]
                    • Multiboard - Set the icon for multiboard item in column 1, row (Player number of (Owner of (Random unit from group2))) to symbolpath[(Integer A)]
                    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_group2)
                  • 'ELSE'-Actions
            • Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_group)

Loop A is 1 to 3 cuz first trigger only has 3 defined heroes
Loop B depends on number of players i just assumed 12 because its the usual number for Aos n stuff
Icon is set at playernumbers row, means player 3 hero icon will be shown in row 3 , you can change that of course
Execute the second trigger when all players selected their hero
First trigger can be included in map init

Yeah, It have to be that way... thanks ^^

 

[apocalypse_dude]

you got many heroes ?

 

[Saishy]

No, why ?

 

[apocalypse_dude]

It would have been a pain to create this trigger for 40 heroes or more

My map is on the begin, so I can do that and when the map have 90 heroes will not be a big deal.
