Whats wrong with selection/Deseletion...

I have been pulling my hairs out for hours and distilled my problem for you here:

• select
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) Selects a unit
  • Conditions
    • b Equal to True
  • Actions
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Town Hall
      • Then - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Selected: City
        • Set b = False
        • Selection - Select Farm 0001 <gen>
        • Set b = True
      • Else - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Selected: Other
• deselet
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) Deselects a unit
  • Conditions
    • b Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Deselect

Basically I don't want Selection - Select Farm 0001 <gen> to be registered , thus b is set to false. But... for some ungodly reason it still goes through. And laughingly informs me that yes, a city was selected and deselected and then another unit was selected....

Hmm, I don't know if this will work but try turning off the trigger , Select Farm, then turn on trigger.

Same thing happens. I've been thinking of saving up to 3 selections in a variable.
curSelection[pId][0] = current selected
curSelection[pId][1] = lastSelected
curSelection[pId][2] = theOneBeforeLast...

That is probably because of delay with selection event.Try adding a wait action before "set b = true" to test it.

Yep that was it:

• select
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) Selects a unit
  • Conditions
    • b Equal to True
  • Actions
    • Set u[1] = u[0]
    • Set u[0] = (Triggering unit)
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • u[1] Not equal to u[0]
      • Then - Actions
        • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
          • If - Conditions
            • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Town Hall
          • Then - Actions
            • Set b = False
            • Selection - Select Farm 0001 <gen>
            • Wait 0.00 seconds
            • Set b = True
            • Game - Display to (All players) the text: Selected: City
          • Else - Actions
            • Game - Display to (All players) the text: selected other
      • Else - Actions
        • Game - Display to (All players) the text: same selection found

You can try just to directly filter the unit or unit type:

Event:
    Player selects a unit

Condition:
    TriggeringUnit != Farm 0001 <gen>

Action:

I did something of the sorts, the problem was more complicated then what i showed, but the issue was the same. Anyway, have finally solved it. (No TriggerSleepAction, if thats what you were worried about.)
