[Solved] Units spawing for the second time and how to make ghost units not make corpses using triggers.

Pekisa7 · Jun 17, 2026

Hello it's Pekisa7. The first question is about units spawning twice and how to prevent it. I have already asked this question but when I was working with timers I accidentally ruined the already working trigger for the special units like fazalak , ras fleasheater and drakuru to not spawn twice. I have set it in the trigger to be like ras fleasheater = last created unit in another trigger where he acually spawns too and so forth. It acually spawned one unit but for the others two. The trigger where I put all the special units as last created unit worked but now it doesen't . For the other question. How do I make ghost units that I made transparent not leave corspes by using tirggers. I have set for the units that you can build to be can't raised does not decay. But for the ghost units I can't figure out how for them not to leave a corpse upon dying. Can you guys help me with this? Id be gratefull. Best regards from Pekisa7. Here are the triggers:

        Custom script: call RemoveLocation( udg_RaiseUnitPoint )

I'm using patch 1.31.1 btw.

Regarding your second question, the simplest approach is probably to just modify the death type flags via trigger using the action 'Unit - Set Unit Boolean Field' and modifying both flags "Decayable ('udec')" and "Raisable ('urai')" to False. You can also change death time of such unit, for example to 0.00, so the unit disappears immediately and have another trigger that detects the ghost's death, through which you spawn some nice custom effect.

Unit - Set Unit: your_unit's Boolean Field: Raisable ('urai') to Value: False
Unit - Set Unit: your_unit's Boolean Field: Decayable ('udec') to Value: False
Unit - Set Unit: your_unit's Real Field: Death Time (seconds) ('udtm') to Value: 0.00

As for your first question about how to prevent unit from being spawned twice, that kind of depends on when this happens. But probably the most universal approach would be to use a boolean variable, something like this:

If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
- If - Conditions
  - Fazalak_Spawned Equal to False
- Then - Actions
  - Set VariableSet Fazalak_Spawned = True
  - Unit - Create 1 Fazalak for some_player at some_location facing Default building facing degrees
- Else - Actions

If - Conditions

Unit - Create 1 Fazalak for some_player at some_location facing Default building facing degrees

Else - Actions

Thank you so much friend! It works! Both of the triggers work.
