[General] Race selection system! Help!!

[hypsandar]

I'm working on a map with custom races, i have an idea for the race selection system but i can't seem to find the specific trigger option.

I want the starter unit to die when finished constructing one from 4 custom race halls.


Specific unit event: [starter unit] > Event..?

There doesn't seem to be an option related to construction.

Appeal your wisdom, Hivers!

I can't believe there isn't any race selection spell on Hive... Its rather odd, maybe i'm just using the wrong keywords. *shrugs*

generic unit event, finishes/begins/cancels construction are the events for constructions.

Ah, but i need it to be a specific unit event, how do i make it for specific units?

There cannot be a specific unit event since you cannot build a specific unit (specific unit event is only for preplaced unit which cannot be built since they are already constructed). If you want a specific unit-type of the building, you can easily accomplish it with conditions.

    • Set GROUP = (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Your_unit_type))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in GROUP and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Trigger - Add to CONSTRUCTION <gen> the event (Unit - (Picked unit) Finishes training a unit)
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_GROUP)

• CONSTRUCTION

  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)

The starter unit is already placed within the map, its not trained or summoned by a trigger.

Here's the map file if it helps explain:
