Unit Spawning Problem

[Xzife_TD01]

Heres my trigger for spawning waves in a TD.

• Next Level Timer
  • Events
    • Time - Timer expires
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Countdown Timer - Destroy (Last created timer window)
    • Set TempPoint = (Center of Spawn <gen>)
    • Unit - Create Levels_Units_Count[Levels_Current] Levels_Units[Levels_Current] for Player 12 (Brown) at TempPoint facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Create Levels_Units_Count_Type2[Levels_Current] Levels_Units_Type2[Levels_Current] for Player 12 (Brown) at TempPoint facing Default building facing degrees
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_TempPoint )

This action

• Unit - Create Levels_Units_Count[Levels_Current] Levels_Units[Levels_Current] for Player 12 (Brown) at TempPoint facing Default building facing degrees

creates a certain number of units for the wave.
This action

• Unit - Create Levels_Units_Count_Type2[Levels_Current] Levels_Units_Type2[Levels_Current] for Player 12 (Brown) at TempPoint facing Default building facing degrees

Should create a separate type of unit for the same wave, but even when it has a value set to both

• Levels_Units_Count_Type2

and

• Levels_Units_Type2

The units wont spawn! Anybody know whats wrong?

well it must be with the 2 create units trigger. the way i would go about this is 2 ways.

1 make in the corner of the map an isolated area. then make a trigger with if,then,else functions. and every level (or make a trigger with every 60 secs of game) spawn a type of dummy. and your if,then,else function would say somin like if "level 1" (dummy) is in region isolated then spawn 5 whatevers. else and then keep on going for every level. could be a bit time consuming though.

2=make a trigger for level 1 saying (timer expires e.c.t) create new timer. spawn 5 whatevers. enable level 2 trigger. disable this trigger. and level 2 trigger would say exactly like level 1 but with the new units. and keep going on

hoped that helped

p.s sorry. both are slightly time consuming. can't think of anything else unless you resort to jass (uhh i hate it)

I can see how both of those would work, its just that im pretty sure theres a small error somewhere in my triggers cuz the first type of units spawn correctly, but the type 2 units dont spawn for some reasoin.

ok. i'm going out now. try it and re-post the results and i shall reply your next move =D

Ended up doing the second solution. It takes a while, and I'm not finished with it yet, but it's working better than what I had before and I have the first seven waves finished. Thanks for the help
