Need help reducing mass unit lags

[Kikinsin]

I know that to reduce unit lag (when too many units move at the same time and get stuck), one common solution is to split units between multiple players, where a human player controls several computer players.


I’m having trouble implementing this with triggers. Specifically, I need to distribute 240 units across 6 players (40 units per player).


Player 1 (human) controls the other players, but only Player 1 is allowed to build the structure that spawns units (zombies with tiers from 1 to 4).


The idea is:

• When the total unit count reaches 40 or more, newly spawned units should belong to Player 2 (computer).
• When it reaches 80 or more, newly spawned units should belong to Player 3, and so on.
• If the unit count goes back down (because units are killed), newly spawned units should be assigned back to the previous players accordingly.

I managed to make this work when the unit count only increases, but once units start dying, the trigger stops working correctly.


Does anyone know how to handle this properly?

I don't know about trigger, but maybe this post can help you : Too many units in the map generates lag
