Player unit count?

[Karkul]

Hello I'm making a map with the HRE in it.

When the Emperor of the HRE die, a new is elected and I want to make it so the player having the most German Cities will be the one having the next emperor.

Any ideas?

Something like this. What should happen if there is a tie?

Set i1 = 0 Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions) Loop - Actions Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true Set i = (Number of units in (Units owned by (Picked player) of type Footman)) If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions) If - Conditions i Greater than i1 Then - Actions Set i1 = i Set PLAYER = (Picked player) Else - Actions

I don't udnerstand your trigger honestly.

However, about your question, if there is a tie, either a dice will be cast between them or no emperor will be elected.

That trigger picks every player to loop through them. It then sets i equal to how many units that player owns. Then it checks i against the next player if the next player is greater than previous it sets that player to PLAYER. Then at the end the player in PLAYER will be the one w the most units.

Oh now I understand, thank you for the help.

Ok I tried his trigger and it didn't not worked.

Edit: I finally made it work. Well I hope.

Edit 2: It didn't worked as the example above but I happened to make my own who is far more larger but with more infos for the process wc3 can make it work well. If you wish I can show an example of how it work.

Can you show the trigger as i believe you are doing something wrong.
Makers way does work as i have used something similar before.

• Event: A unit die
• Condition: Unit type of Dying unit = Roman Emperor
• Action:
• Unit - Remvoe Triggering Unit
• Set HRE = 1
• Set HRE1 = Numbers of livings units of type City(Germany) owned by player 1 (red) + Numbers of lovings units of type City(Austria) owned by player 1(red).
• If/then/else:
• If: HRE1 is higher than HRE
• Then:
• Set HRE = HRE
• Set HREemperor = Player 1(Red)
• Else: If/then/else
• If: HRE1 = HRE
• Then: Set Dice a random number between 1 and 2
• If/then/else:.... Well etc

You surely didn't change the unit type in Maker's trigger? Also try reducing the unit types of cities to one so it could be easily picked.

Or, add integers; when a player captures/builds/destroys a city, add/subtract one from the player's city counter. When emperor dies, check every player's counter using Maker's trigger.
