• Respawn
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to <enemy>
  • Actions
    • Wait <The wait time> Seconds
    • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of (<your region>)), Show revival graphics

Zathrak: i just copy paste, and trigger tah so he could undarstand better(yea this trigger should work)

edit:

• Conditions
  • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to <enemy>(of player blue)

• (Owner of (Dying unit)) Equal to <enemy>(of player (dunno green)

just make a player on oposite site in condition, you neeed two triggers for that its same onl with other condition(player) and with another region.

Respawn is annoying!
Unlike most other triggers, respawn can get increadibly annoying because you need 12-13 triggers for it. You see, if you were to write a trigger like this:

• Respawn
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • And - All (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Not equal to Neutral Hostile
  • Actions
    • Wait 20.00 seconds
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) belongs to an ally of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of T1 Respawn <gen>), Show revival graphics
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) belongs to an ally of Player 7 (Green)) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of T2 Respawn <gen>), Show revival graphics
      • Else - Actions

Then if anyother hero were to die inside that 20 seconds, then the trigger would be void.

So basicly, you need 12 triggers like this:

• Respawn P1
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • And - All (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Not equal to Player 1 (Red)
  • Actions
    • Wait 20.00 seconds
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) belongs to an ally of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of T1 Respawn <gen>), Show revival graphics
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) belongs to an ally of Player 7 (Green)) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of T2 Respawn <gen>), Show revival graphics
      • Else - Actions

• Respawn P2
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • And - All (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
        • (Owner of (Dying unit)) Not equal to Player 2 (Blue)
  • Actions
    • Wait 20.00 seconds
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) belongs to an ally of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of T1 Respawn <gen>), Show revival graphics
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Dying unit) belongs to an ally of Player 7 (Green)) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of T2 Respawn <gen>), Show revival graphics
      • Else - Actions

ect...

Or you could use 12 "if then else" actions.

• Revive Sentinel
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • ((Dying unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • ((Owner of (Dying unit)) is an ally of Player 1 (Red)) Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Set DeadHero[1] = (Dying unit)
    • Wait 5.00 seconds
    • Hero - Instantly revive DeadHero[1] at (Center of Region 007 <gen>), Show revival graphics
    • Camera - Pan camera for (Owner of (Dying unit)) to (Center of Region 007 <gen>) over 0.60 seconds

i know variable is like wtf...
i use this trigger on my aos and it works fine

 

[DrazharLn]

you haven't set the variable to null afterwards, Heresy!

About the if/then/else. See, there is this thing about GUI, where all of the trigger has to run all the way through before it runs again or the first trigger will be lost and wont have an effect. I'm not sure why this is, but it is very annoying. Anyway, if you make 12 if/then/else actions, then if another hero dies within the wait, then the first hero wont be revived, ruining gameplay.

Even if you use Countdown Timers, then you need an additional trigger.
Respawn is a pain.

 

[DrazharLn]

Hmm, thats good to know.
I may eventually have heroes in my map.
+ rep

Draz

EDIT: or not, aparently I've given you rep too often, I'll try again later.

 

[ModFreak]

I can shorten that bunch of codes but it needs declaration of variables first of the regions in another trigger, probably initiated through map initialization or other events. Use arrays.

I can't help now as I'm nowhere near a World Editor now.... I'll get back to it as soon as i can

EDIT: Awww... inverted beat me to it...

This is what i use in my map, hope it helps. And no you don't need 12 triggers. Just make 1 short one like this. RedHero, BlueHero, TealHero, and PurpleHero were all asigned when heroes were bought at the beginning of the map. (This is the version with all of the countdown timers for eye candy)

• Respawn
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • ((Owner of (Dying unit)) slot status) Equal to Is playing
    • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
      • Conditions
        • (Dying unit) Equal to Red_Hero
        • (Dying unit) Equal to Purple_Hero
        • (Dying unit) Equal to Blue_Hero
        • (Dying unit) Equal to Teal_Hero
  • Actions
    • Countdown Timer - Create a timer window for Respawn_Timer[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))] with title Respawn:
    • Set Respawn_Timer_window[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))] = (Last created timer window)
    • Countdown Timer - Start Respawn_Timer[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))] as a One-shot timer that will expire in (10.00 + ((Real(Hero_level[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))])) x 2.50)) seconds
    • Countdown Timer - Hide Respawn_Timer_window[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))]
    • Countdown Timer - Show Respawn_Timer_window[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))] for (Owner of (Dying unit))
    • Countdown Timer - Destroy Shop_Exile_Win[(Player number of (Owner of (Triggering unit)))]
    • Wait (10.00 + ((Real(Hero_level[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))])) x 2.50)) seconds
    • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of Shops <gen>), Hide revival graphics
    • Countdown Timer - Destroy Respawn_Timer_window[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))]

Simple Version:

• Respawn
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
    • ((Owner of (Dying unit)) slot status) Equal to Is playing
  • Actions
    • Wait (10.00 + ((Real(Hero_level[(Player number of (Owner of (Dying unit)))])) x 2.50)) seconds
    • Hero - Instantly revive (Dying unit) at (Center of Shops <gen>), Hide revival graphics

Its not complicated at all... and it has a growing respawn time based off of the heroes level.
