Simple Spawning and Reviving System 1.2f [GUI]

[Moderator]

Moderator: Pharaoh_ Date: 20:44, 5th Jul 2012 Very useful and does the job just fine. Recommended Old Review • Use Regions, instead of locations in the Map Init to define their spawning spot. Remove TempLoc leaks (two, at the moment). • Though you should pick regions into the code, Set TempLoc = SR_SpawnRegion[LoopingInteger] Hashtable - Save Handle OfTempLoc as (Key RespawnLoc) of SR_Key in SR_Hashtable Simply: Hashtable - Save Handle Of SR_SpawnRegion[LoopingInteger] as (Key RespawnLoc) of SR_Key in SR_Hashtable Well, that's not exactly what I said, but if you want to stick with that, you are currently leaking a location, upon saving it. If you were up to using locations, then you would use the method above; if not, then you can go for the next solution: • When the unit dies, after checking what array index (LoopingInteger variable) it belongs to, save the LoopingInteger to it and when the time-out comes, then set TempLoc = (Center of SpawnRegions[(Load 20 of SR_Key from SR_Hashtable)])[trigger] Where Load 20 is the LoopingInteger.[/hidden] [/box][/td][/tr][/TABLE][/center]

Could you please post the triggers (or anyone else) in hidden tags?

Right click on a trigger window and select Copy as text, then paste it in between [trigger]..[/trigger]

 

[defskull]

Trigger has been added.

Everything seems to be good
except this:

• Unit Group - Add TempUnit to SR_DeadGroup
• Trigger - Turn on SR Respawn Time <gen>

Put them after the looping integer, because what if the dying unit is not used in the system?
You can solve that by this:

• SR Death
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
  • Set TempUnit = (Triggering unit)
  • Set TempInteger = -1
  • For each (Integer LoopingInteger) from 1 to SR_MaxSpawnUnitType, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • ------------------ You check in the loop if it's the same unit, and set a temp integer variable = LoopingInteger
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
      • TempInteger not equal to -1
    • Then - Actions
      • Custom script: set udg_SR_Key = GetHandleId(udg_TempUnit)
      • Unit Group - Add TempUnit to SR_DeadGroup
      • Trigger - Turn on SR Respawn Time <gen>
      • Set TempDelay = SR_RespawnDuration[TempInteger]
      • Set TempLoc = SR_SpawnRegion[TempInteger]
      • Hashtable - Save TempDelay as (Key RespawnTime) of SR_Key in SR_Hashtable
      • Hashtable - Save Handle OfTempLoc as (Key RespawnLoc) of SR_Key in SR_Hashtable

I will add an exceptions later on by using array variables.
Or so I think the map creator will just filter the unit through the IF condition below Events.

That looping is a check whether the unit is in the system or not (set via Setup Trigger).

It will loop through the remaining indexes in the array, if it cannot find at least 1 similarity to that unit, it will do nothing at all (the unit is excluded from the system by itself)

 

[KnnO]

I know but before the loop the unit is added to the dead group, that is just what I want to say, you can fix that by any means.

 

[defskull]

Fixed.

I like the fact that It also revives normal units.

 

[defskull]

I like the fact that It also revives normal units.

It's actually does not "revives" it, but instead, creates the same Unit-type of that dead unit.

Because, only Heroes are unique, Normal Unit is not unique to one another.

 

[defskull]

Okay the last update is made.

 

[defskull]

If I have Item Drops (The one that works by clicking the Unit and setting it to custom item drop or group item drop) do they drop each time I kill the Units?

If not.. Well take this msg as a suggestion for the Hero Reviving, I guess?

I don't understand a thing.

 

[Gregory Tountas]

You don't understand whats Item Drop? It's the thing that when you put Item Drop to a Unit a white circle-thing comes uppon its head. Thats the way you set Item Drops without triggers.

 

[defskull]

Ohhh that's a pre-set dude.
You can do it with triggers with variable Unit-Type.
But that's not part of my system, therefore I'm not gonna implement that.

 

[Gregory Tountas]

Aight', thats what I asked.

I found a bug : When 2 of the same types of heroes die from 2 different players, they respawn at the same respawn point, even if they are set in 2 different points.

Regardless of who owns the unit, the unit-type of the dying unit will always respawn according to the setup trigger (if Red and Blue dies - both of them from Rifleman, both of that unit will be respawned at the Rifleman Region).

- This respawn system favors more towards Unit-Type, not Player-own.

It's not a bug, it's what this system purposes.

Hey, thanks @defskull for this. I'm working on something for fun, who knows if I will ever get far enough to release it. I always start something, and then days later I start on another project. But if I do ever finish it, or get far enough to release a little something. I will make sure you get the credit for assisting in the script.

 

[JFAMAP]

Hello my friend. Can you help me about that? Somehow it won't work for me.

Proper way to respawn neutrals?

Hello everyone. I have created my own neutral creeps respawn system but it seems there are few problems with my system. First of all, i am creating units at specific locations and adding them into the unit groups Then i am removing them from unit groups after they dies And i am respawning...
