• sell
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Sell
  • Actions
    • Unit - Remove (Trained unit) from the game
    • Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game
    • Player - Add (Point-value of (Triggering unit)) to (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold

I made this trigger for selling structures, but it doesn't works, do you know why?

Yes, actually I made it similar with another map's trigger, and at the end I copied it, cause I was frustrated of my own which wasn't working.. now I see that this one's not working neither.. Might the problem be in the object editor?

What exactly doesnt work? You need to add the "Sell" on the list of trainable units for that building. Not sure what exactly isn't working for you.

 

[RobertMKD]

Okay, I guess I can fix that..
Do you have any idea about how to add something in text, like the name of a player, or player's current gold?
I know only this one --> (Name of (TriggeringPlayer)) +

Genius, it must be like this:

• Events
  • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Sell
  • Actions
    • Player - Add (Point-value of (Triggering unit)) to (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Current gold
    • Unit - Remove (Trained unit) from the game
    • Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game

If you remove the trained unit and triggering unit first from the game, (Point-value of (Triggering unit)) and (Owner of (Triggering unit)) will return null xD
Also, note that point-value must be greater than 0 if you want it to give you gold.

I am not 100% sure what you mean.
Here is the sell system that I use:

• Sell
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Sell
  • Actions
    • Unit - Remove (Trained unit) from the game
    • Unit - Remove (Triggering unit) from the game
    • Player - Add (Point-value of (Triggering unit)) to (Owner of (Trained unit)) Current gold
    • Game - Display to (Player group((Owner of (Trained unit)))) the text: (You received + ((String((Point-value of (Triggering unit)))) + Gold for selling a Tower))

This pretty much adds the "Point-Value" of that building to the player and tells them they got that much gold.
Then just add to the building this:

And to set how much the player gets just change this:

Ofcouse first you must make a custom unit which will be named "sell"

Better exlain HOW exactly it is not working. At what state does it fail ?
First looks is telling me that you are either receiving no gold or it fails totaly.

-does it fail totaly, does absolutely nothing ?
-the dummy is not removed ?
-the building is not removed ?
-does not give gold ?

1st if you have just copied teh trigger over without changing the unit in teh conditions it may be passing garbage data.

4th It is passing some garbage data so you should not get gold, try rearanging the gold before you destroy units

===================
About you other question:
===================
Use "convert integer to sting" or "convert real to string", the gold is integer (I think) so it needs to be converted to string to be displayed.

To combine multiple things use concatenate string, this will allow you to output 2 different things, like PlayerName + SomeNumber.

Here it may become a bit confusing. If you want to do it for more than 2 values use nested concatenate strings, meaning set one of teh values of the concatenate string to concatenate string.


Edit// @Wrda "Triggering unit" is a special case. It can survive waits and I believe it should survive removing teh unit from the game... maybe... probably... although is very counter logical to do so, if you do some weird stuff like this you may get a very nasty bugs, like trying to retrive data from it like its possition and doing something with it...

Please, don't believe in things, test them first, if you try to remove unit and then give gold, the giving gold part doesn't work because you removed the unit and it returns null.

You're not getting it, first you need to give gold to the player, and THEN remove the triggering unit and trained unit or ofc you won't receive gold.

Please use abilites instead of a unit that you train, I always hated the rally points on towers that only exists beccause there is a sell unit type on it.

Change it to a spell, check which unit-type it is and then give a value of gold to the owner of the unit instead.

Actually, it was an ability, and it worked, but it was giving me only 100 gold, for every building I sell.

You solved my problem, thank you, this can be made with ability too, and that option is better, the problem was that the point value of all my buildings was 100, now I fixed that.. thank you all!!
