Question with colors.

[The Last Istari]

Yes I would like to know how to change the units colors when they are finished being trained.

Let's say I'm player blue, but I want a red blood mage, but when i train him, he's blue, how do I get it to where he will come out red?

You can change it in the Object Editor
should be named like this -> "Graphic - Teamcolour - "
Set it to "Player 1(Red)" and he´ll always be red

that only works if you place these units in the editor, but not when the units are created ingame.

So you have to use a trigger like this:

• Unit Change Color
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Change color of (Trained unit) to Red

@-JonHny: Tried it, didn't work.

@DragoonZombie:It works! +rep!

For that kind of a trigger I would personally like to have things spelled out more clearly using events, conditions and actions that specify EXACTLY which units might be changed:

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit owned by Player 1 (Red) Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Barracks
  • Actions
    • Unit - Change ownership of (Trained unit) to Player 2 (Blue) and Change color
