[Trigger] Multiple Pick Every Units?

[madmuffin]

This is my Watch Tower trigger

• Watch Tower Alert Copy
  • Events
    • Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Picked unit)) Equal to Watch Post
            • (Owner of (Picked unit)) Equal to Player 1 (Red)
          • Then - Actions
            • Set TempTowerPoint = (Position of (Picked unit))
            • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
              • Loop - Actions
                • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                  • If - Conditions
                    • ((Picked unit) belongs to an ally of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to False
                    • ((Picked unit) is in WatchedUnitsRed) Equal to False
                  • Then - Actions
                    • Set TempPingPosition = (Position of (Picked unit))
                    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
                      • If - Conditions
                        • (Distance between TempTowerPoint and TempPingPosition) Less than or equal to 1800.00
                      • Then - Actions
                        • Unit Group - Add (Picked unit) to WatchedUnitsRed
                        • Cinematic - Ping minimap for (All allies of Player 1 (Red)) at TempPingPosition for 1.00 seconds
                        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempPingPosition)
                        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempTowerPoint)
                      • Else - Actions
                  • Else - Actions
          • Else - Actions

It sorta works as intended, only it pings each new unit in range one at a time. Ping, ping, ping, ping, one new ping each second for each unit. I wanted it to ping all units entering the range of a tower. 50 pings all at once for all the new units. How do I modify it for this?

Unless the watch towers are not pre-set, you can do this:

• Map Initialization
• Events
  • Time - Every 0.1 seconds of game-time
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Set WatchTowerGroup = (Units in (Playable Map Area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit) Equal to Watch Tower)
  • Unit Group - Pick up every unit in (WatchTowerGroup) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set Point1 = (Position of (Picked unit))
      • Trigger - Add to Trigger2 <gen> the event (Unit - A unit comes within 1800.00 of (Point1))
  • Custom script: call DestroyGroup (udg_WatchTowerGroup)

• Trigger2
• Events
• Conditions
  • ((Triggering unit) belongs to an ally of (Player 1 (Red))) Equal to False
  • ((Triggering unit) is in WatchedUnitsRed) Equal to False
• Actions
  • Set Point2 = (Position of (Triggering unit))
  • Unit - Add (Triggering unit) to WatchedUnitsRed
  • Cinematic - Ping minimap for (All allies of Player 1 (Red)) at Point1 for 1.00 seconds
  • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Point2)

The towers are not preset, players can build them at any time anywhere. I also expanded on my original trigger to a more functioning version if you'd like to take a look at that one.
