Random regions -with the variable being reduced

[Darkxs]

Okay I'm a little new to the whole variable thing, so I need your guys help. I am to make two triggers:

1. A trigger which moves every hero unit in a region into one of 8 diffrent regions, but without placing more heroes in the same region.

2. A trigger which creates an item in one of 4 random regions when a hero dies, but without createing one in a region which already contains the same item.

You should probably try to make the triggers yourself then post them here if they don't work...

Remember to look out for leaks (Center of Region, for example, leaks).

Also, you could use a Region array variable to store all your regions, and use the function 'Move unit instantly to 'YourRegionVariable[Random integer between 1 and *something*]' to randomize the regions which the unit(s) is(are) moved to. Same deal for creating items.

As for the conditions, you can check if there is already a hero/item in the region, and if there is, halt and rerun the trigger... that'll will give you a new random integer (And thus a new region). Just remember to stop the loop if all regions are occupied or the game will crash.

Those are just some pointers though :<

1. Create a Region Array and add the regions from 1 to 8. When moving the heroes to the regions, just Pick Every Unit matching (Matching unit) is a Hero = true and move them to region [IntegerVariable], then set IntegerVariable = IntegerVariable+1. Something like this

• Melee Initialization
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set RegionVar[0] = A
    • Set RegionVar[1] = B
    • Set RegionVar[2] = C
    • Set RegionVar[3] = D
    • ...

• Melee Initialization
  • Events
    • Your Event...
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set UnitGroupVar = (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Matching unit) is A Hero) Equal to True))
    • Set IntegerVar = 0
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in UnitGroupVar and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set PointVar = (Center of RegionVar[IntegerVar])
        • Unit - Move (Picked unit) instantly to PointVar
        • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_PointVar)
        • Set IntegerVar = (IntegerVar + 1)
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_UnitGroupVar)

2. You can follow a similar logic than applied for #1, but with items instead
