Need help with a unit spawn system

[Goosebearslug]

Need help with a unit spawn system where the next wave begins after all units in the previous wave are dead.

Event - Unit die
Condition - Triggering unit is in (Temp Group) == true
Action - Remove triggering unit from (Temp Group)
If (Number of units in (Temp Group)) == 0 then
Run Trigger (Your spawn trigger)

And then in your spawn trigger
- Add Last created unit group to (Temp Group)

thanks for the help.

Here's a more friendly version:

• Unit Group Create
  • Events
  • Conditions
    • (Your Conditions)
  • Actions
    • Unit - blah blah
    • Unit Group - Add (Last Created Unit) to Spawned_Units\\ Do this for every unit created. If you create multiple units, use the (Last Created Unit Group) function. After all that, use this function:
    • Set Spawned_Units_Integer = (Number of units in (Spawned_Units))

Now to check if all the units are dead:

• Check Dead
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit dies
  • Conditions
    • ((Dying Unit) is in (Spawned_Units)) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Unit Group - Remove (Dying Unit) from Spawned_Units
    • Set Spawned_Units_Integer = ((Spawned_Units_Integer) - 1)
    • If (All Conditions are True) Then do (Then Actions) Else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Spawned_Units_Integer Equal to 0
      • Then - Actions
        • Trigger - Run Unit Group Create <gen>\\ If you want to spawn the same units
      • Else - Actions

if you creating more than one unit at a time of the same type by using somthing like this below will only add one to the unit group

• Unit - Create 25 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees
• Unit Group - Add (Last created unit) to spawns

you will need to create the units in a loop to add them all to your unit group

• For each (Integer A) from 1 to 25, do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit Group - Add (Last created unit) to spawns

@indomitable1319
why don't you just use the condition

• (Number of units in spawns) Equal to 0

instead of creating another variable

 

[indomitable1319]

Wouldn't it be better if you used another variable to prevent leaks or something like that?

Or simply, you could remove the Integer Variable, and just use the condition:

• (Spawned_Units is empty) Equal to True

you can use also...

• Event
  • Unit - A unit dies
• Conditions
  • Unit - Dying unit equals to (OWNER OF WAVE/PLAYER)
  • Integer - Count non-structures owned by (the wave/player) equal to 0
• Actions
  • Then you can run your NEXT WAVE here
