[Trigger] Why this won't work

[supertoinkz]

• Human Lumber MIll Destroyed
• Events
• Unit - A unit Dies
• Conditions
• (Unit-type of (Dying unit)) Equal to Lumber Mill
• (Number of units in (Units owned by (Owner of (Dying unit)) of type Lumber Mill)) Equal to 0
• Actions
• Player - Limit training of Blacksmith to 0 for (Owner of (Dying unit))
• Player - Limit training of Stables to 0 for (Owner of (Dying unit))
• Player - Limit training of Church to 0 for (Owner of (Dying unit))
• Player - Limit training of Archer to 0 for (Owner of (Dying unit))

can someone help me D:

A dead unit is not nescescarily not owned. Basically the unit is still owneed by the player until it decays, which can take a while.

Try checking for all units owned by the owner of the dieing unit matching type lumbermill and is not dead (HP greater than 0).

Equally well, if you have it that buildings decay instantly it could be that dying unit is returning null.

 

[supertoinkz]

Well, I really need some visuals (like codes)

Like DSG said,

• (Number of units in (Units owned by (Owner of (Dying unit)) of type Lumber Mill)) Equal to 0

Includes dead units, such as the Lumber Mill that just died. Therefore, it will never be 0.

What I would suggest is:

• Human Lumber Mill Destroyed
  • Events
    • Unit - A unit Dies
  • Conditions
    • (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Lumber Mill
  • Actions
    • Set TempGroup = (Units in (Playable map area) matching (((Owner of (Matching unit)) Equal to (Owner of (Triggering unit))) and ((((Matching unit) is alive) Equal to True) and ((Unit-type of (Matching unit)) Equal to Lumber Mill))))
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • (Number of units in TempGroup) Equal to 0
      • Then - Actions
        • -------- Do Actions --------
      • Else - Actions
    • Custom script: call DestroyGroup(udg_TempGroup)

As long as I experienced even dead units have all default settings such as owner, techs, abilities and such.

The only problem is that they somehow act weird when it comes with adding abilities. But that really doesn't matter mostly for anyone.

Hey man, I don't think you need code for this, the normal WE can do the trick. I believe there is a Techtree section, which will let you have restrictions. Just put the lumber mill as a restriction and it should work fine .

So no need for a trigger...

 

[supertoinkz]

I need it for my map to stop those "synergy"ist

 

[mjllonir]

I don't get it...please explain what you mean by Synergyists

 

[supertoinkz]

the cheat "synergy" which disables techtree

 

[mjllonir]

Never heard of it...

 

[Zack1996]

There's actually a way to deactivate a cheat, if you are able to detect which cheat was used.
A custom script:

• Custom script: call Cheat("whosyourdaddy")

Would activate/deactivate the whosyourdaddy cheat. If the player chat event works with cheats as well, you could use this to deactivate synergy.

If it doesn't, your trigger would work.

it won't work, tried it before, the game do not recognize the string whosyourdaddy and returns the string Cheat Eneabled! if you use the player chat event.

 

[Anachron]

Wehrm, are you sure? I tried it myself and it worked.

 

[Adiktuz]

Wehrm, are you sure? I tried it myself and it worked.

well I tried it player chat event for whosyourdaddy with a different action.. something like making the player lose. and that was some time ago haven't tried it again.

 

[Anachron]

Ehrm, this is how I did it:
Get any playerchatstring
(Event: A player writes '' as a substring.)
(Condition: GetEnteredChatMessage == 'whosyourdaddy')
(Action: Defeat TriggeringPlayer())

 

[Adiktuz]

(Condition: GetEnteredChatMessage == 'whosyourdaddy')
(Action: Defeat TriggeringPlayer())

oh.. I did it in GUI using player types whosyourdaddy as a match...

 

[Anachron]

Oh yeah, I had a lot of problems back then in GUI with match strings and cheats.

Edit:

scope test initializer init

    private function defeat takes nothing returns nothing
        if GetEventPlayerChatString() == "whosyourdaddy" then
            call MeleeDoDefeat(Player(0))
        endif
    endfunction

    private function init takes nothing returns nothing
        local trigger t = CreateTrigger()
        
        call TriggerAddAction(t, function defeat)
        call TriggerRegisterPlayerChatEvent(t, Player(0), "", false)
    endfunction

endscope

Can you try this and type whosyourdaddy?

okay.. maybe it was an error with GUI.. thanks.
