[Trigger] Respawn creeps at their starting position

Rektis · May 30, 2007

I just downloaded "EZ Spawnsystem", which respawns one creep of the same type of its starting position, if it was killed. I need the trigger to make a Troll-Tribe-map...

I modified the trigger just a bit, but if a creep was killed there spawned some random units. The basic trigger was working well, I think I made a mistake...

But what did I do wrong?

add trigger tags, its hard to understand what this is all about without them (i think they help alot)

Rektis · May 30, 2007

sorry, I wanted to add them, but couldn't find the tag xD

the tutorials just say "add a trigger tag", but not how to add them...
bad help for a noob / newcomer like me...

-JonNny · May 30, 2007

First of all - Welcome to The Hive Workshop

To create Trigger tag just click on the lil "trigger" icon or use [.TRIGGER][./TRIGGER] ( without the dots )
And please add trigger tags or even do not copy and paste the text because many parts are still german of your editor and i guess not everyone knows e.g what an "Einheit" is

I think the creation of the unit is the wrong thing because you create the unit at the center offset the X and Y values instead of creating if directly at the Position
"at ((Center of (Entire map)) offset by (SystemSpawn_SpawnPointX[SystemSpawn_RespawnUnitIndex], SystemSpawn_SpawnPointY[SystemSpawn_RespawnUnitIndex]))"
=> Should be :

Unit - Create 1 (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) for Neutral agressive at (Point(SystemSpawn_SpawnPointX[SystemSpawn_RespawnUnitIndex], SystemSpawn_SpawnPointY[SystemSpawn_RespawnUnitIndex]) facing 0 degree

And please add trigger tags or even do not copy and paste thee text because many parts are still german of your editor

I made a FAR better creep-respawn system:

d_man3981 · May 30, 2007

Why are yours so complicated? The easiest thing to do is:
Event: A unit dies
Condition: (Colour of (Owner of triggering unit)) = Black
Action: Create 1 (unit-type of (triggering unit) for Neutral Hostile at (postion of (triggering unit)) facing default bulding facing degrees.
tht easy thts wat i use in my maps and it works perfectly. You may want to add a wait trigger though.

Two-line trigger:

Wait x seconds

Create unit at (Position of Triggering unit) ..

-> this will create the newest breed where the other died, and not where they should camp..

Mine:
-Requires 1 trigger only
-Does not use global variables
-Does not uses the units' custom value
-Uses coordinates instead of locations --> leak free
-Revives creeps at their initial locations
-Also stores the initial facing of the creeps

Rektis · May 31, 2007

First at all: thanks for the help.

I now tried it like that... simple and easy, like the first try:

Creep Respawn
- Ereignisse
  - Einheit - A unit Stirbt
- Bedingungen
  - (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Gleich Neutral feindlich
- Aktionen
  - Wait 2.00 seconds
  - Einheit - Create 1 (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) for Neutral feindlich at (Position of (Triggering unit)) facing (Random point in (Playable map area))

It works... oh. Now I remember why I didn't use this one. If I use this trigger, the unit respawns at the position, where it dies, but
they have to respawn at their STARTING position. The unit mustn't respawn at another point, than it's started. I'm making a Troll Tribe Map, so I want the units to walk around, but everytime they die, they have to respawn at their starting position. That's why it's so complicated.

Hope you can help me...

Mine consist out of 2 triggers, if you want it being MUI you have to translate the second Trigger into JASS and use a local integer.

The Init Trigger

RInit
- Events
  - Map initialization
- Conditions
- Actions
  - Set tmp_group = (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Neutral Hostile)
  - Unit Group - Pick every unit in tmp_group and do (Actions)
    - Loop - Actions
      - Set RPoint[integer] = (Position of (Picked unit))
      - Set RType[integer] = (Unit-type of (Picked unit))
      - Unit - Set the custom value of (Picked unit) to integer
      - Set integer = (integer + 1)
  - Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_tmp_group)

And the revive Trigger

RAction
- Events
  - Unit - A unit Dies
- Conditions
  - (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Neutral Hostile
- Actions
  - -------- To make this trigger MUI change it into JASS and remove the '//' from the follwing lines --------
  - -------- Also change all custom data things to the local integer. --------
  - -------- local integer WhichType = GetUnitUserData(GetTriggerUnit()) --------
  - Wait 5.00 seconds
  - Unit - Create 1 RType[(Custom value of (Triggering unit))] for Neutral Hostile at RPoint[(Custom value of (Triggering unit))] facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
  - Unit - Set the custom value of (Last created unit) to (Custom value of (Triggering unit))

@Fireeye

Hm, looks good, but I'm not skilled enough to make the trigger by myself into GUI. Please post a testmap with the trigger, so I can test it.

If it works well, I'll give you credits and use the trigger in my map.

-JonNny · Jun 1, 2007

paskovichs system works aswell and is also easy to use :/
.. .. if u think ur not skilled enought to create this on your own please learn

.... anyway

i got bored and made it for u , so credit fireeye if u want to

I'd say it's the easiest way. Childs play to implement, uses one trigger only, and no variables.
USE THAT if you cannot make a trigger yourself...

Rektis · Jun 5, 2007

@-Johnny:Thanks for the trigger. Yes, I'm going to learn it, but without examples it's hard to see how WE works the best way. Oh, I also will give you credits.

I first tried to do this trigger by myself.
I tried it, so do not complain!

Zombie-C · Jul 5, 2007

Johnny, not complaining, but I tried it too... and when I kill a unit it respawns but then when I kill it again, I waitied about 15 seconds (I set for 10 seconds) and it does not respawn, do you know what might be the problem?

N8-11_GER · Dec 22, 2007

so waht is the best STARTING POSITION revival system?

and it would be perfect if it possbile when no units in map coz i can only place some more creeps
