[Trigger] Need help with text message spell!

[I_LOVE_SWE]

Im making a robot game and i made an ability called Install Selfdestruct.
It's supposed to stop the timer when the targeted unit writes ://remove virus
but i can't find the right event!

• Selfdestruct off
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing ://remove virus as An exact match
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Countdown Timer - Pause Selfdestruct

+rep!

I don't get it, this IS the right event. The player writes that code, not the unit. This is the event you need.

TARGETED Unit

It should work like this: Player 1 uses this ability on player 2(targeted player)
and when player 2(targeted player) writes the message the countdown stops

Temp_Group is a Player Group variable.
Timer is an Integer Variable

You unfortunately need hashtables to do that. If you don't want hashtables, use a preset value, like this:

• Trigger1
• Events
  • Map Initialization
• Conditions
• Actions
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set Timer[Player Number of Player(IntegerA)] = 20

and with the same way as above, add the (Owner of (Target unit of ability being cast)) to a Player Group and substract -1 every second.
That "20" value is the timer's maximum value.
