need help spawning units {spawning a unit every 30 seconds depending on a building}

[ilikeorcs]

I am having trouble making a trigger that:

• spawns a unit every 30 seconds

• spawns a certain unit depending on a certain building (ex. spawning a footman if and only if you have a barracks)

the effect i want is similar to the spawning system in civilization wars

 

[Jerrin]

Something like this:

• Events
  • Unit finishes construction
• Conditions
  • Unit type of constructed unit equal to YourBuilding
• Actions
  • Set SpawnCount = SpawnCount + 1

• Events
  • Every 30 seconds of game time
• Actions
  • Create SpawnCount Unit for player x

SpawnCount is an integer variable. If you want several unit spawns you might want to consider making it an array to keep the number of variables needed down.

Or:
Events
Every 30 seconds of the game

Conditons
If (Barracks) life greater than or equal to 1

Actions
Create X amount of (your soldier(s)) in (your region)

other solution

Something like this might work better
Unit Spawn
Events
Time - Every 30.00 seconds of game time
Conditions
Actions
Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units of type Barracks) and do (Unit - Create 1 Footman for (Owner of (Picked unit)) at (Position of (Picked unit)) facing Default building facing degrees)

doing this will make it spawn one footmen for every barracks each player has for that player, one blanket trigger to cover it all

Yeah use Elandor's trigger.

ya its just a transformation of the trigger i use in my map to do income by building

if i just want it to spawn for red i can do this right?
conditions: (owner of (picked unit)) equal to Player 1

never mind... its working now thanks
