Random raid

[Animalpower]

Some triggers do not work in my map when I made them. I need to have a raid, example a Centaur horde. I want the Centaurs to move to random point in Playable Map Area with time elapsed 30. I do not know how to trigger to move them, on action: with unit group or what?

I mean random as random point in map, they all randomly migrate to one point.

This would make all footmen attack random point.

Trigger

• Untitled Trigger 036
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 30.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Footman))) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set point = (Random point in (Playable map area))
        • Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To point
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point)

        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point)

This trigger appears to me, that each foorman will attack a differeant random location, because a random location is set each time the loop is run.
To fit his needs move this after the loop:
Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point)

And this before it:
Set point = (Random point in (Playable map area))

What do you mean by loop? Do you mean unit group?

What do you mean by loop? Do you mean unit group?

Yes:

Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Footman))) and do (Actions)
Loop - Actions

It processes the code within the loop for each unit individually, not as a group.

Edit: example

Set point = (Random point in (Playable map area))

Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) matching ((((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Footman))) and do (Actions)
 Loop - Actions
 Unit - Order (Picked unit) to Attack-Move To point

Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_point)

My friend, how do you know these custom scripts & triggers

 

[Chaosy]

you need to remember to custom scripts to remove the leaks. about triggers you just need training

Honestly leaks don't make big problems these-days, sometimes we make them on purpose (in GUI mostly).
But it would be really great if you reduce them or remove completely in systems (that are used by few players or few times in game), great loops and timers (like each 0.03 sec do something or unit/player groups).
Also spells should be leak free as well.

RPG or AOS types of maps should be leak free because those games can last long and usually run long scripts in background (especially if you use GUI that is by default converted to jass).
But some mini games can have few leaks.

This above, is related to map section!
Spell section require clean code!
