Simple trigger is not working

My map has a spirit tree unit with the ability to spawn trees, to be chopped down by workers. As you can see, I want it to be so that the chopped trees don't leave stumps behind, but the trigger isn't working. What's wrong with it? It should be able to work, really.

Use the other destructiable event. It should be "A destructible dies" or so.

You use the event which is specified to a region already, and just sucks. It only works for 64 of amount and only for pre-placed ones.

There's no way to create a variable or that or anything, it just prompts to select a pre-placed destructible. I guess it's impossible to do in that case. Oh well.

 

[IcemanBo]

Pick all destructibales inside your map on map start and use action "Trigger - Add Event" to add the event "Picked Destructable Dies" to your dest-death trigger.

When you create new destructables, you can add them there, too.

Ahh, I see. Thanks!

Wont this cause quite alot of lag?

 

[IcemanBo]

You only "Pick all destribales" once on map start.

Later, like when you create a new tree, you don't need to again register all destructibales, but only the last created one.

By the way, in the trigger at map start, where you register "all" destructiables, you may add a condition to check if picked destrictable is actually a tree or not, because there are maybe also a lot of other destructables inside your map which you don't need to have registered.

Ahh, got it working now. I forgot that I could just use the add event action with the "Last Created Unit" parameter.
