Triggering Spawning units

olaf76 · 05-13-2008

I was wondering how you make a trigger so a unit spawns when you build a building every time the timer ends.
Ex. I build a barracks then the timer goes off i get 1 footmen. I build another barracks timer goes off and then i get 2 footmen for a total of 3 footmen from both spawns.

first one some thing like
event:timer ends
action: spawn 1 footmen
if [var]=1
spawn 2 footmen
else

first trigger

Code:

Untitled Trigger 001
    Events
        Time - timer expires
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit - Create 1 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees
        If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
            If - Conditions
                variable_footmen Greater than or equal to 1
            Then - Actions
                Unit - Create 2 Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees
            Else - Actions

2nd trigger

Code:

Untitled Trigger 002
    Events
        Unit - A unit Finishes construction
    Conditions
        (Unit-type of (Constructed structure)) Equal to Barracks
    Actions
        Set variable_footmen = (variable_footmen + 1)

also if u wanted it 2 work so every barrack u made added 2 footmen spawn use this one one the first one

Code:

Untitled Trigger 001 Copy
    Events
        Time - timer expires
    Conditions
    Actions
        Unit - Create ((variable_footmen x 2) + 1) Footman for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing Default building facing degrees

**variable_footmen is a variable that starts at the value 0

Hint: Remember to add another trigger:

Code:

event - Unit dies
condition - Unit Type of dying unit equals Barracks
action - set Set variable_footmen = (variable_footmen - 1)

Sorry don't have WE open right now.
