[Solved] Unit Cage Spawning

[OriginalNameTutko]

Can someone pls tell me how to do this i know how to spawn it for a specific player using triggers but not for the player that destroyed the cage. If there is a way please tell me.

P.S. It doesnt need to be a cage just a doodad when "killed" drops a unit

Basically it just has to be triggered to create a unit when a certain destructible dies.

• Cage Dies
  • Events
    • Destructible - Cage 42272 <gen> dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Set TempLoc = (Position of (Dying destructible))
    • Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player at TempLoc facing Default building facing (270.0) degrees
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_TempLoc)

If you want to do this for EVERY cage without having to manually add them, you can do this at the start of the map:

• Untitled Trigger 002
  • Events
    • Time - Elapsed game time is 0.00 seconds
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Destructible - Pick every destructible in (Entire map) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Destructible-type of (Picked destructible)) Equal to Cage
          • Then - Actions
            • Trigger - Add to Cage Dies <gen> the event (Destructible - (Picked destructible) dies)
          • Else - Actions

And you can make different cages in the object editor and have them spawn different units, of course.

I assume "killing unit" does not work for destructable death events? If not then it is not really possible to do what you want.

Best compromise would be to weigh up possible killing units and choose which is the most likely. For example if a player has 50 units near it and another player only has 1 then give it to the player with 50 units as he is most likely to have killed it as he most likely has area control. applying weights to units might help so that 1 hero is worth more for the calculation than 5 trash units.

Could also just make it a unit instead of a destructible. Would also make the triggers much simpler.
