Remove units From "user" Players that are not playing game

[Abextadoo]

I want to know how to remove (must be via triggers?) the things (units,buildings, etc.) from the units for players that are supposed to be on game, but are not.

Example: My map has 8 slot for "user" players. But in case there are just 3 or 4 people on game, i want to remove the units from the non playing slots.

This removes units once a player leaves the game

• Your trigger
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) leaves the game
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) leaves the game
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) leaves the game
    • Player - Player 4 (Purple) leaves the game
    • Player - Player 5 (Yellow) leaves the game
    • Player - Player 6 (Orange) leaves the game
    • Player - Player 7 (Green) leaves the game
    • Player - Player 8 (Pink) leaves the game
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Group[(Player number of (Triggering player))] = (Units owned by (Triggering player))
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Group[(Player number of (Triggering player))] and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Group[GetConvertedPlayerId(GetTriggerPlayer())])

And this may check if a player plays or not in the beginning of a game :

• Revoming
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00 seconds

        • (Player 1 (Red) slot status) Not equal to Is playing
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Group[1] = (Units owned by Player 1 (Red))
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Group[1] and do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game
        • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Group[1])
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Player 2 (Blue) slot status) Not equal to Is playing
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Group[2] = (Units owned by Player 2 (Blue))
        • Unit Group - Pick every unit in Group[2] and do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game
        • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_Group[2])
      • Else - Actions
    • -------- ###### Apply this to all plyers ######### --------

Your trigger Events Player - Player 1 (Red) leaves the game ... Conditions Actions Custom script : set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units owned by (Triggering player)) and do (Actions) Loop - Actions Unit - Remove (Picked unit) from the game

No need for an array or a unit group variable.

just didn't understand why take action "Custom script: call DestroyGroup" is there a problem if i don't put it?

You only need it if you use a variable for the unit group. The wanDestroyGroup thing is more efficient, if you want to destroy the group right away.
