[Trigger] Unit Group Limit

[doombringer]

How would I limit the amount of units of a certain tech level that a player can have?

I have 3 different groups of units Tech1, Tech2 and Tech3 units

I want it so that every player can only have a maximum of
36 Tech 1 units
24 Tech 2 units
12 Tech 3 units

There are about 5 different units per tech level

How would I do this in GUI?

If the units are trained like normal units, it is very simple:

Footman & Rifleman = Tech1
Mortar Team & Flying Machine = Tech2
Knight & Griphon Rider = Tech3

• Train a unit
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Finishes training a unit
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
          • Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Footman
            • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Rifleman
      • Then - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Number of units in Tech1[(Player number of (Owner of (Trained unit)))]) Less than or equal to 35
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit Group - Add (Trained unit) to Tech1[(Player number of (Owner of (Trained unit)))]
          • Else - Actions
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
          • Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Mortar Team
            • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Flying Machine
      • Then - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Number of units in Tech2[(Player number of (Owner of (Trained unit)))]) Less than or equal to 23
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit Group - Add (Trained unit) to Tech2[(Player number of (Owner of (Trained unit)))]
          • Else - Actions
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • Or - Any (Conditions) are true
          • Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Knight
            • (Unit-type of (Trained unit)) Equal to Gryphon Rider
      • Then - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Number of units in Tech3[(Player number of (Owner of (Trained unit)))]) Less than or equal to 11
          • Then - Actions
            • Unit Group - Add (Trained unit) to Tech3[(Player number of (Owner of (Trained unit)))]
          • Else - Actions
      • Else - Actions

Thanks alot

But how would I make it so that players cant train more units if they have reached their limit and that if any of them got killed that they could make more.

 

[Eleandor]

There's an action: Player - disable training of unit.

Simply use that in your trigger so whenever a unit is trained which brings your unitcount to the max, you disable the training of all tier 1 units, and whenever a tier 1 unit dies, you enable it...

Ok I see what I have to do now

Thank you

Sounds like simple Player - Limit Training of Unit-Type action
Here is example:

• Limit
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Player - Limit training of Footman to 36 for (Picked player)
        • Player - Limit training of Rifleman to 36 for (Picked player)
        • Player - Limit training of Mortar Team to 12 for (Picked player)
        • Player - ....and so on

 

[doombringer]

JansiGx thats not what I want as that would mean you could have 36 footman AND 36 rifleman while I wanted it so I could only have 36 Tech 1 units. eg: 18 footman and 18 fileman, or 10 footman and 26 rifleman.

But dont worry Eleandor and Yixx have shown me how to do it.

Doombringer,, I actually dont know if a unit is deleted out of the unit group if it dies,,
I made a little trigger for it,,

• Delete Unit
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Triggering unit) is in Tech1[Player Number of (owner of(triggering unit))]) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit Group - Remove (Triggering unit) from Tech1[Player Number of (owner of(triggering unit))]
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Triggering unit) is in Tech2[Player Number of (owner of(triggering unit))] Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit Group - Remove (Triggering unit) from Tech2[Player Number of (owner of(triggering unit))]
      • Else - Actions If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • ((Triggering unit) is in Tech3[Player Number of (owner of(triggering unit))]) Equal to True
      • Then - Actions
        • Unit Group - Remove (Triggering unit) from Tech3[Player Number of (owner of(triggering unit))]
      • Else - Actions

Hope it helped

Yeh I figured that out myself but I was wondering how do I cancel units in the queue as it works fine exept it continues building the units in the queue so you can get about 5-6 more units than you are supposed to.

 

[StaberFire]

Make a trigger that forces a player to select the training structure, then forces the player to press the ESC key X amount of times. This aught to cancel any training in progress.

ok thank you everyone who helped
