Noobish variable related problem

[Marsunpaisti]

Well, I'm making a tower defense map where i got 15 lives for every player, but when I am trying to create a trigger that player loses when his lives hit zero, I can't find anything to make like "Variable reaches 0" option there, expect one. But it allowed only Real type variables.

Why cant you use a "Real variable"?

Why don't you just do

Event - A Unit Dies (or whatever the event is that causes 1 Life to be taken away)

Conditions - Your conditions for the Unit that when it dies will subtract one Life from the Player.

Actions - If Owner of (Triggering Unit) = Player 1(Red) then Set LivesRed = LivesRed - 1
Else - If Owner of (Trigger Unit) = Player 2(Blue) then Set LivesBlue = LivesBlue - 1 (etc...etc...)
If LivesRed = 0 then defeat Player 1(Red) Else -
If LivesBlue = 0 then defeat Player 2(Blue) Else -
etc.

Here is a trigger

Try this:

• Events
  • Unit - A unit enters (rengion were, when the unit gets there, the player loses a live(for player 1 - one region, for player 2 anader region, or for all players one region))
• Conditions
  • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to (player who controls the creeps)
• Actions
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • Lives Equal to 0
    • Then - Actions
      • Game - Defeat (player who lost a live) whit the massage: Type samethink
    • Else - Actions
      • Set Lives = (Lives - 1)

I can make the trigger take more lives for bosses.
If you have any questions comment.

Dark, your trigger will not work, for it subtracts the life after it checks to see if Lives = 0. Here is the correct version;

• Events
  • Unit - A Unit Dies
• Conditions
  • Your specific conditions go here (Like Owner of Triggering Unit, etc.)
• Actions
  • Set Lives = (Lives) - (1)
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • Lives Equal to 0
    • Then - Actions
      • Game - Defeat (Owner of Triggering Unit) with the message: You Lose!
    • Else - Actions

what if the player will have 0 lives then if one more comes thhen dies XD

Any time he will have 0 lives he will be kicked from the game, because it checks to see if they have 0 lives AFTER they loose the life.
