Unit to building with conditions

[Allione]

Hello,

I am short for ideas and I would highly appreciate your professional intake of solutions.

I am trying to create a trigger that will build a tower on a spot of dying unit. So far I have it alright, but the tricky part is how do I make it so that if there is no way of that Tower to be built on the exact spot of the dying unit if there is no space for it. (Right now the Trigger just builds it at nearest point available)

(And also, is there any way how do I add here my trigger easily? I do not have English version of Map editor and I do not know how it is exactly word by word in English version.)

Thanks in advance.

I doubt there's a way to easily post GUI in English here without outright changing your editor's localization.

Anyhow, I'm not sure I really understand your question:

Do you mean that a tower shouldn't be built if there's no space for it? If so, you can create the unit at the specified point, then check to confirm that the unit actually exists at the place you told it to be created at, and if it doesn't then delete it.

Yes that's pretty much an idea I needed to hear. Thanks for the fresh wind, I am most grateful.
The only problem after 15 minutes is that I am not quite sure how do I do such a thing
Looks like I have something to wrap my head around

Thank you PurplePoot

Pseudocode (needs de-leaking etc in practice, of course):

Create 1 <unit> at <some place>
If
    Distance Between <some place> and (Position of (Last Created Unit)) Greater Than <some number>
Then
    Remove (Last Created Unit)

You could fake-structure it.

Keep it classified as a structure, but its really a unit. Only way I can see otherwise wc3 auto-places it.

Never thought of it this way Dat-C3, I have it already figured out but I might use your approach elsewhere. Thanks for your contribution I value it greatly.

Also thank you PurplePoot, I got the best out of your idea and I adjusted it for my purposes. Keep this attitude up, you're fine men you two.
