Pick every unit type in region and

[czechctrl]

Does such Action Trigger exist? I have been trying to figure this out for like an hour. There is a region, in that region there are 5 grunts and 5 footmen. Now, I am trying to find an Action to kill all the footmen in that region.

-I don't want to assign unitgroups
-I don't want to assign each footman into individual Actions

Thank you in advance.

You need to assign a unit group to prevent getting a memory leak (which can lead to lag).

It's simple:

• Set group1 = (Units in (Playable map area))
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in group1 and do (Actions)
  • Loop - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Picked unit)) Equal to Footman
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit - Kill (Picked unit)
      • Else - Actions
• Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_group1)

Simple. Use Units In Region Matching Condition. The condition will be Unit-type comparison where you'll do this: Unit-type of (Matching unit) Equal to Footman. You should get this:

• Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Your region) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Footman)) and do (Unit - Kill (Picked unit))

That's all but this will leak so you will need to assign these units to a unit group so that you can destroy it eventually.

• Set UnitGroup = Units in (Your region) matching (Unit-type of ((Matching unit)) Equal to Footman))
• Unit Group - Pick every unit in UnitGroup and do (Unit - Kill (Picked unit))
• Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_UnitGroup)

Oh, okay.

Thank you, guys.

TIL about memory leaks, and had to go through countless of cinematic triggers to remove them. Thanks!
