[Trigger] Trigger that suposedly should work

[Donran]

Ok guys, so i have these triggers here:

• First Form
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Evolve labelled Strength Tree
    • Set OptionEvolve = (Last created dialog Button)

• First Form Copy
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Wait 1.00 seconds
    • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Evolve labelled Agility Tree
    • Set OptionEvolve_Copy = (Last created dialog Button)

• First Form Copy 2
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Wait 2.00 seconds
    • Dialog - Create a dialog button for Evolve labelled Inteligence Tree
    • Set OptionEvolve_Copy_2 = (Last created dialog Button)

Now the crucial trigger(notice it isn't complete yet, but w/e)

• true first form
  • Events
    • Unit - Soul 0016 <gen> Begins casting an ability
  • Conditions
    • (Ability being cast) Equal to Consume (Archimonde)
  • Actions
    • Dialog - Show Evolve for Player 1 (Red)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Clicked dialog button) Equal to OptionEvolve
      • Then - Actions
        • Wait 0.05 seconds
        • Sound - Play Tension
        • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Casting unit) using war3mapImported\NetherStrike.mdx
        • Unit - Replace (Casting unit) with a Footman using The new unit's default life and mana
      • Else - Actions

It doesn't works! when i choose strength tree... sound, effect nor unit replacement work. I've been bashing my head in the computer for a few hours trying to discover this myself but... is there somthing wrong in there? There must be, otherwise it would work btw, the wait in the last trigger was me trying to make it work /o/

easy fix. For the trigger "true first form" You need another with the event "A dialog button is clicked for (Evolve)"
Then you put the sound and footmen and other actions in that new trigger.
rep me if i helped

 

[Donran]

So basicaly i need another event wich would be "A dialog button is clicked for (evolve)"?

I'll test it out and edit if it works or not

EDIT: well the sound is playing now... but the effet nor replacement are working. Is it suposed to be like this:

• Untitled Trigger 003
  • Events
    • Dialog - A dialog button is clicked for Evolve
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Clicked dialog button) Equal to OptionEvolve
      • Then - Actions
        • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Casting unit) using war3mapImported\NetherStrike.mdx
        • Unit - Replace (Casting unit) with a Footman using The new unit's default life and mana
        • Sound - Play Tension
      • Else - Actions

I don't think that dialogs work like that. You have to create all the buttons in one trigger. Plus, your "true first form"'s condition in the IFs doesn't work because it needs an event. Create a new trigger with a "Dialog button is pressed" event and stuff your trigger there.

 

[Ramsey]

thats pretty much what i told him lol....and u can make dialogs in different triggers.

EDIT: In the trigger when the units starts casting the ability, you have to make a variable stating the triggering unit.
(Example: Set Trig_Unit = Casting Unit) then go to your "Untitled trigger 003" and replace Trig_Unit (not Casting Unit).
(And do the same for special effect)

lol yeah. It happens sometimes, I've got like 10 tabs open on FF and switch between them all the time. When I started writing my reply, nobody had answered

i could create them in one trigger really, the first time i tried was all in one trigger. But then i thought because everything was in one trigger, it wasn't working, so i splitted them up

EDIT: saw yer edit ramsey, i'll try it out.
EDIT²: Hell yeah, it worked! Thanks :3

• Untitled Trigger 003
• Events
  • Dialog - A dialog button is clicked for Evolve
• Conditions
• Actions
  • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
    • If - Conditions
    • (Clicked dialog button) Equal to OptionEvolve
    • Then - Actions
    • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Casting unit) using war3mapImported\NetherStrike.mdx
    • Unit - Replace (Casting unit) with a Footman using The new unit's default life and mana
    • Sound - Play Tension
• Else - Actions

All this is unnecessary. You can replace it with this:

• Untitled Trigger 003
• Events
  • Dialog - A dialog button is clicked for Evolve
• Conditions
  • (Clicked dialog button) Equal to OptionEvolve
• Actions
  • Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the origin of (Casting unit) using war3mapImported\NetherStrike.mdx
  • Unit - Replace (Casting unit) with a Footman using The new unit's default life and mana
  • Sound - Play Tension
• Else - Actions

Plus, your triggers leak. You should fix them.

Do you need help with the anti-block system? I'm not the right person to ask, since I was thinking about that too the other day. I will hazard a guess and say that this may be possible if you pick every unit, check its movement speed and if it's 0, order it to explode in a nearby tower. I'm sure this is highly inefficient and stupid and buggy, but I really don't know how to do that.
