Those are your huts, by the way.

Also, I'm having some difficulty figuring out how to set up the fourth resource.

Event - a unit (requiring gold) begins training
Condition -
Action - If: Real (?): ??? (Something to the effect of, amount of variable x equal to x)
Then: Subtract x amount of variable x
Else: Stop training, display message: "you do not have enough merchant-supplied gold to do that"


If someone could get this in vJass with no leaks, I'd prefer it.

If you have enough discrete rate of gathering and spending this resource (you know 100, 200, 300, ... not 100, 101, ... , 199, 200 or 1, 2, 3, 4, ... would work too) you could make a dummy unit for each amount of resource. The max of these dummy units will be the cost of most expensive unit, then you store the value in a variable, so you do not need too much these dummy units. Their name will correspond to their value (e.g. "200 gold"). Depending how much you spend and gather, you remove/add that many gold units. Now when you will like to train/build/research stuff using this resource, the button will be inactive as long you have too few resources.

Hope you understand.

Should this work?

 

[Mechanical Man]

No.

Unit begins training a unit

trained unit equal to whatever

in the end: order training unit to stop (not sure if stop is correct order)
