[General] Respawning Units

[Dimitri]

Im making a RPG map and I need to make every unit, to respawn after 10-15 secs after death, at the initial position it was setted, facing doesnt matter.
I tried this, but for some odd reasons, some units doesnt respawn..

• Respawn
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area) owned by Neutral Hostile) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set Integer = (Integer + 1)
        • Set Creep_Loc[Integer] = (Position of (Picked unit))
        • Set Creep_Face_Ang[Integer] = (Facing of (Picked unit))
        • Unit - Set the custom value of (Picked unit) to Integer

• Respawn Copy
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Neutral Hostile
  • Actions
    • Wait (Random real number between 10.00 and 12.00) seconds
    • Unit - Create 1 (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) for (Owner of (Triggering unit)) at Creep_Loc[(Custom value of (Triggering unit))] facing Creep_Face_Ang[(Custom value of (Triggering unit))] degrees
    • Unit - Set the custom value of (Last created unit) to (Custom value of (Triggering unit))

PS: I also need a way to add hero glow to my hero

dont waste the custom value useage for that.... else u get pain when u want something usefull later on ur map

check this https://www.hiveworkshop.com/threads/gui-respawn-neutral-hostile-variations.212816/post-2111053

 

[DESTROYER123]

Didn't thought to check that too.
Prety usefull!

problem if u waste the custom value for unit respawn then later u can have complication if u want add example a damage detection system or any system/mui spell where unit indexer is used like a standard thing.

u can use unit indexer then u can use custom values for anything included respawn/dds/spells

There's a less complex system for that. Try doing this:

• INIT Store Creeps
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 2.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set Loop = 0
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units owned by Neutral Hostile) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Set Creep_Type[Loop] = (Unit-type of (Picked unit))
        • Set Creep_Position[Loop] = (Position of (Picked unit))
        • Unit - Set the custom value of (Picked unit) to Loop
        • Set Loop = (Loop + 1)

//TESH.scrollpos=0
//TESH.alwaysfold=0
function Trig_Revive_Creeps_Actions takes nothing returns nothing
    local integer CUSTOM
    local real time = 65.00 //To change the revive time, change this
    set CUSTOM = GetUnitUserData(GetDyingUnit())
    call TriggerSleepAction( time )
    call CreateNUnitsAtLoc( 1, udg_Creep_Type[CUSTOM], Player(PLAYER_NEUTRAL_AGGRESSIVE), udg_Creep_Position[CUSTOM], bj_UNIT_FACING )
    call SetUnitUserData( GetLastCreatedUnit(), CUSTOM )
endfunction

//===========================================================================
function InitTrig_Revive_Creeps takes nothing returns nothing
    set gg_trg_Revive_Creeps = CreateTrigger(  )
    call TriggerRegisterPlayerUnitEventSimple( gg_trg_Revive_Creeps, Player(PLAYER_NEUTRAL_AGGRESSIVE), EVENT_PLAYER_UNIT_DEATH )
    call TriggerAddAction( gg_trg_Revive_Creeps, function Trig_Revive_Creeps_Actions )
endfunction

This is from eubz' Hostile Swamps, i thought it might be useful.
Don't use waits, their not Multiple Unit Instanceable.

this got exactly same problem than the previous

• Unit - Set the custom value of (Picked unit) to Loop
