Hi there! I have a problem...
Well I have a trigger that revives a duying hero after some duration...
But I also have a Resurrector unit that can revive hero instantly.
I also have a trigger that have to remove a timer window, but it doesn't!
Take a look:
  • Remove Timer Windows
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit enters (Playable map area)
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • And - All (Conditions) are true
            • Conditions
              • ((Entering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
              • (Owner of (Entering unit)) Equal to Player 2 (Blue)
        • Then - Actions
          • Countdown Timer - Destroy Timer_window_blue
          • Trigger - Turn on Die Blue resp <gen>
        • Else - Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • And - All (Conditions) are true
            • Conditions

          • Trigger - Turn on Die Orange resp <gen>
        • Else - Actions

          • Countdown Timer - Destroy Timer_window_brown
          • Trigger - Turn on Die Brown resp <gen>
        • Else - Actions
Why doesn't it check an entering unit event? How to check "Revive hero instantly" spell work? :ogre_rage:

Dead heroes never leave the map. They are hidden at the top left corner (correct corner?) until revived. Instead of the entire map, use a region consisting of only the area around the reviver unit.

You can also get rid of all of those and all condition blocks.
Use triggering unit instead of entering unit.
Using a timer array and trigger array would shorten this to one ITE.

Could you please show me how to do it right?

You should really try to learn how to code more efficiently.

Here is how your trigger should be.
Also note that this may be able to be shortened if you combine the other triggers that get turned on because of this one.

First make a timer window array. TimerWindowArray
Second make a trigger array. TriggerArray
Third you need a player group. PlayerGroup
  • Setup Trigger
    • Events
      • Time elapsed = 0.00 seconds
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • Set TimerWindowArray[2] = Timer_window_blue
      • Set TimerWindowArray[6] = Timer_window_orange
      • Set TimerWindowArray[5] = Timer_window_yellow
      • Set TimerWindowArray[4] = Timer_window_purple
      • Set TimerWindowArray[8] = Timer_window_pink
      • Set TimerWindowArray[9] = Timer_window_gray
      • Set TimerWindowArray[11] = Timer_window_DG
      • Set TimerWindowArray[12] = Timer_window_brown
      • Set TriggerArray[2] = Die Blue resp <gen>
      • Set TriggerArray[6] = Die Orange resp <gen>
      • Set TriggerArray[5] = Die Yellow resp <gen>
      • Set TriggerArray[4] = Die Purple resp <gen>
      • Set TriggerArray[8] = Die Pink resp <gen>
      • Set TriggerArray[9] = Die Gray resp <gen>
      • Set TriggerArray[11] = Die DG resp <gen>
      • Set TriggerArray[12] = Die Brown resp <gen>
      • Player group add
        • Player 2 (Blue)
        • Player 6 (Orange)
        • Player 5 (Yellow)
        • Player 4 (Purple)
        • Player 8 (Pink)
        • Player 9 (Gray)
        • Player 11 (Dark Green)
        • Player 12 (Brown)
  • Remove Timer Windows
    • Events
      • Unit - A unit enters (Playable map area)
    • Conditions
    • Actions
      • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
        • If - Conditions
          • ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
          • (Triggering player) is in PlayerGroup equal to true
        • Then - Actions
          • Set tempInteger = Player number of Triggering Player
          • Countdown Timer - Destroy TimerWindowArray[tempInteger]
          • Trigger - Turn on TriggerArray[tempInteger]
        • Else - Actions

Yeah, but all heroes are ressuracted in different places... Would you like to look at all of my duying, respawning and resurrecting triggers???
 
You can create arrays for points (location type) which you can use to feed the system the respawn points. The idea is to create a system such that the same set of code handles all players by changing values. This may or may not be more efficient but it is more maintainable as by simply changing some array or variable values you can make the system behave differently.

That is just the same as I did above.
You put the locations into the array. Then spawn just like how I did with the timer windows.

If you can't get it to work after you have tried. Post it here and I will try to help.
