Spawn Problems

[.mitsuki]

I made a simple spawing system.

Oooh.

• Spawn
  • Events
    • Time - Every 30.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- Spawn --------
    • Unit - Create 4 Brigand for Neutral Hostile at (Center of 1 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Rogue for Neutral Hostile at (Center of 2 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Brigand for Neutral Hostile at (Center of 3 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Rogue for Neutral Hostile at (Center of 4 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Brigand for Neutral Hostile at (Center of 5 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Rogue for Neutral Hostile at (Center of 6 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Brigand for Neutral Hostile at (Center of 7 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Rogue for Neutral Hostile at (Center of 8 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees

the problem is, it only spawn at a region, and then after 30 seconds, it will spawn into a different region, I mean not all the regions are spawned.

Don't worry about leaks,
I've created Variable called "Loc"
And then after they are spawned
I just putted "RemoveLoc custom script"
Well, I didn't include it here, I removed it cause it didn't work, too.

Tried everything I've got

You are not mutating the rects in any way?

I do not see any reason why the above script should not work. It might work poorly (bad coupling and memory leaks) but it should still spawn the same units in the same locations every 30 seconds.

Yeah, I'm also wondering why it does not work. So what am I suppose to do?

 

[Dr Super Good]

Debug it. Insert lines of script that allow you to tell when the system goes wrong.

maybe your trigger is off after this?...DSG is right, it leaks, do this one...

• set Point = Center of 1 <gen>
• Unit - Create 4 Brigand for Neutral Hostile at Point facing Default building facing degrees
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_Point)

and so on...

well, i tried that before I've done the trigger posted here.

Can someone take my request?
> First, A countdown timer, 30 seconds.
> when the countdown timer finishes,
> Spawn Level 1 creeps at the 8 regions
> then after about 45 seconds,
> Spawn Level 2 creeps at the 8 regions
> then so on and so forth.

Im doing a test and it works fine...

• Test
  • Events
    • Time - Every 5.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Create 4 Brigand for Neutral Hostile at (Center of Region 000 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Rogue for Neutral Hostile at (Center of Region 001 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Brigand for Neutral Hostile at (Center of Region 002 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create 4 Rogue for Neutral Hostile at (Center of Region 003 <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees

BUT, the units have a 'hide' ability during night so do this for testing...

Melee Game - Use melee time of day (for all players)

Thanks for pointing me out, I've created my own, can you please check it if it is leak-less.

that's a long trigger, shorter is...

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Time - Every 45.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 8, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Unit - Create 4 Unit_Type[(Random integer number between 1 and 7)] for Neutral Hostile at Loc[(Integer A)] facing Default building facing degrees

if your using your Loc variable many times to the same CENTER POINT, you
dont need to remove it 'always'...just set it at the initialization part...
