Need help with basic Builder triggers

[DaedraEater]

I'm trying to set up a SciFi builder map, but I can't get into any other builder game (protection) to see how gold income, race selection, opening/closing gates, etc... works out in relation to triggers.

I pretty much just need to know about what basic triggers builder maps (i.e. Medieval Builder, LotR Builder, Village Builder, etc... or even a map like Founders of the North) use.

You could meaby find something in my "Useful Survival Systems" in the spell selection. But if you tell me exacly what to do this night (Because i'm gone for 1-2 weeks tomorrow) i can create it to you.

I hope this will cover your basic needs:

Income

Variable: Unit Group - incomeBuildings

• Events:
  • Time - every X seconds of game time
• Conditions:
  • number of units in incomeBuildings is greater than 0
• Actions:
  • Unit Group - pick every unit in incomeBuildings and do multiple actions
    • Loop - Actions:
      • Player - add Y to (owner of (picked unit)) current gold

• Events:
  • Unit - a unit finishes construction
• Conditions:
  • unit-type of (constructed structure) equal to Your Income Building
• Actions:
  • Unit Group - add (constructed structure) to incomeBuildings

• Events:
  • Unit - a unit dies
• Conditions:
  • unit-type of (dying unit) equal to Your Income Building
  • (dying unit) belongs to incomeBuildings
• Actions:
  • Unit Group - remove (dying unit) from incomeBuildings

Easy Gates

Just give walls an ability that morphs them into a building of the same size, but with the "Zone Indicator" pathing map. (or give that ability to a "Gate Wall" unit)

Just do what this says, but with builders rather than heroes.
