I kind of have a problem, i have made the following trigger, but it simply wont fire...I have tried different actions to see if that was whats wrong with it, it still wouldnt fire, then i tried different, and even no, conditions (!), without the trigger firing, what can be wrong ??

Events:
A Unit Dies
Conditions:
Unit has Buff "<the buff that i KNOW it has>" equal to True
Actions:
Create 1 <unit i KNOW is createable(:P)>
Add a 120 second generic expiration timer to <last created unit>

Thx in advance ! :thumbs_up:

PS: Then you would think that it was the event (well i did at some point:P) but what could be "wrong" with "a unit dies" ??
 
Okay, but then how come it isnt working when the trigger doenst have any conditions ??

Btw thx for your post, i didnt think of that (anyways thought that it executed fast enough to catch which unit was dying, yeah well :P)

But why the heck isnt it firing ?!!!
 
Does it not go when you remove the conditions? That is strange. I am going to make a map and upload it in one second. Just wait for it.

Here, have an avatar too.

Works for me btw. Take a look at the triggers.

Omg ! The problem was that (well that was the problem with the trigger i mentioned, but i guess it wouldnt be with different actions..?) i had made the trigger create a unit for a player which where first set when a specific hero was bought (a player variable), because that the unit i was trying to create, only was possible to get inside the game when that freaking variable was set ! When i tried the whole thing ingame for the first time with the above trigger it didnt work, because, as you said, that buff wasnt there, and then i started testing why the unit wouldnt be created, and so, for my convience i thought, i would remove the condition (a unit has buff), so i didnt have to actually give that buff to anyone while testing, but THEN the problem was that i didnt have that variable set to a player, and therefore it didnt fire...but i still think its a mystery why, when i replaced the player variable with player 1 red (me), it didnt create the unit.....?
Anyways, question answered, and thx for the avatar, but do i have to like state that you (if you) created it ?? :P

Thx so much for your quick answers, and your efforts :P
