To start off, I'd like to thank everyone who has helped me so far with my triggers you've been a big help and I've learned alot based on what you have said and the tutorials you pointed me towards.

However I have once again become stumped so I'll start with the triggers already done that I'm having issues with.

My map has Control points and when capturing a control point I desired it to show the capturing, I found a good tutorial that I opened up and mimiced, however after setting two of my capture points I have the issue that now one team automatically captures one of the points, the other team capturing the 2nd one, and the third staying neutral at start as intended. I can't figure out why the point is changing ownership at start as if it is being capped os the only thing I can think of is that their is something in the origional Trigger that causes it to change ownership at start.

Link to the Control Point tutorial I used is here Capture Control Point System 1.0 - The Hive Workshop - A Warcraft III Modding Site

My trigger for the Control point is here

  • Init
    • Events
      • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.01 seconds
    • Conditions

My second issue is my map has a creep I wish to level up every X ammount of seconds, My first Idea was to make it a self affecting aura that each creep had and increase the level of the aura every X ammount of seconds. This did not work. I neeed to find some way to increase the stats of the creep every X ammount of seconds.

The Third Trigger I had was an All Random System at which I set the different Heroes to a Variable and then had it pick and give the hero a random hero, however I'm not sure on two things, One my system is not infallible as it will occasionally give the same hero to two people, and Two when the repick trigger is used it does not delete the previous unit.

My question there is what do I need to add to these two triggers to prevent multible randoms and delete the hero already given from the pick (Im not sure how to delete a unit thats not on the field already)

Now for the Triggers I have no clue how to make.

I need to know how to make a trigger look for the unit having an itemtype in inventory for the condition.

Now the Item Triggers themselves

I have a Trigger thats somewhat like life steal, but in a different manner, It gives X% of killed targets total Life to the user life.

I need to know how to give Players +x% extra bounty per kill as an item effect.

I need to know create my own Aura, and make a variable to heroes on the map that are selected (so that a skill may target them randomly).

If you could help me with any of this it would be GREATLY appreciated, Thanks!

The Problem I am having Lies within the Trigger on the Control Point Trigger, I tested the map and it does the exact same thing.
