Warcraft 3 Fusion Triggers.

[iPwnzor]

I need a fusion system that works for 4 players and for 4 different races.
I tried making it but it takes alot of lines to make and for example if I select 3 peons and make it enter the fusion zone then it will give me the desired result of 1 grunt , however when I select 12 peons and make them enter that zone then no fusion is made because the timer checks the number of units in the region and if it is not 3 then the fusion will not be made...I tried with variables and it actually worked but if the system does more then 1 fusion per second then the game might become really laggy ... So now I am looking for an alternative and practical solution to this fusion system.... If someone can help I will be really grateful... No jass solutions plz... I know it's easy to make with jass but Im kinda noobish with it so I probably couldn't make it work 100%.

Try checking every one second if there is more than 3 units of a type, then remove a random 3 and create one.

Aye! T4COBELL is right
Here is a complete trigger without a timer:

For Peons

• Fusion
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters Your Region <gen>
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Peon
  • Actions
    • Set Peons = (Units in Your Region <gen> matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Peon))
    • Wait 0.01 seconds
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Number of units in Peons) Greater than or equal to 3
      • Then - Actions
        • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 3, do (Actions)
          • Loop - Actions
            • Unit - Remove (Random unit from Peons) from the game
        • Unit - Create 1 Grunt for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of Your Region <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
      • Else - Actions
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup ( udg_Peons )

or here is the trigger for 2 units (just copy-paste the if part, and change it at 3 places: at the If, at the set variable and at the create)

>>I used "Peons" as the Unit group variable!<<

For Peons and Peasants

• Fusion
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit enters Your Region <gen>

      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Peon
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Peons = (Units in Your Region <gen> matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Peon))
        • Wait 0.01 seconds
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Number of units in Peons) Greater than or equal to 3
          • Then - Actions

            • Unit - Create 1 Grunt for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of Your Region <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
          • Else - Actions
      • Else - Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Peasant
      • Then - Actions
        • Set Peons = (Units in Your Region <gen> matching ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Peasant))
        • Wait 0.01 seconds
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Number of units in Peons) Greater than or equal to 3
          • Then - Actions
            • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 3, do (Actions)
              • Loop - Actions
                • Unit - Remove (Random unit from Peons) from the game
            • Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of Your Region <gen>) facing Default building facing degrees
          • Else - Actions
      • Else - Actions

Maker: not bad, but it has a 1second loop time, which is not good if I come with 60 untis (lol 20 seconds Oo) and

"(Number of units in Temp_Group_2) Equal to 3"-this line is glithcy, what if I come with 4 units? It wont't work... So... And why don't you just put a trigger for checking once? (trigger runing times not=1) The way you put it in will spam the player with 20 lines of "Units Checked"

And that loop time is, oh so difficult to change.

"(Number of units in Temp_Group_2) Equal to 3"-this line is glithcy, what if I come with 4 units? It wont't work...

It works the way the original poster wanted it to. Read the first post.

So... And why don't you just put a trigger for checking once? (trigger runing times not=1) The way you put it in will spam the player with 20 lines of "Units Checked"

It checks it for all unit types defined in the initialization trigger, and for all players separately. Ever heard of MPI?

I could change it so that it picks all units in the region, checks that they are owned by the same player, are the same unit type, and the unit type is one of the listed unit types. But that may not be that much more efficient.

 

[Kanadaj]

No, I mean with the last one that it will spam "Units Checked" every second if you walk trough it with like 20 units (takes some time to walk trough xD) But without knowing why does he need that trigger, it's a bit hard to tell if that's good or not... Everything depends on usage-without knowing it, it's a bit hard to read his thoughts xD
