Triggering How to simply trigger a unit

Sildokaj · 05-28-2008

Hello gusy =)
This is my first post here <(^_^)>.
My problem is, that i suck at triggering. I wan't to bind triggers for a specific unit.
I go to Unit - Specific Unit Event -> ''Unit dies'' and want to change ''Unit''. Then it says ''Select a unit'' and i select my unit. The problem here is, that the unit i select, changes ''Unit'' with for example ''Rhasta 0026 <gen>''. And i dont want it to be for this unit only. How do i bind it to a unit, so it's generally that unit classification that will activate the trigger?
(pretty newb question, i know

)

Look for unit type.

What the **** do you mean?

Code:

Untitled Trigger 001
    Events
        Unit - A unit Dies
    Conditions
        (Unit-type of (Triggering unit)) Equal to Footman
    Actions
        Unit - Replace (Dying unit) with a Footman using The new unit's default life and mana

that?
Unit dies, the unit TYPE is a footmen, replace dead unit with UNIT TYPE footmen (its automatically a unit type though) with 100% life/mana

You really need ot be more descriptive of what you want done.

oh.. okay, but it's quite complicated. this trigger editor rly pisses me off

It's because i've created a hero and now i want to give him an ability. The ability: (lvl 1) after killing 8 units he goes rampage and gives +30% damage, which lasts 10 seconds. The effect of killing the 8 units disappers, if he hasn't killed a unit in 15 seconds.

I suck so bad at it. I can't even find a trigger that says ''Unit kills another unit'' ?? :s

but ty for your help

For unit kills another unit..
Event - Unit dies
Then you can work with specifying the Dying and Killing units in events
or change an integer (then you could run a check to add the skill if that integer is equal to 8.. if you do get that far, dont forget to reset the integer to 0 after it hits 8, assuming you want that done)

I can't think of how to do the rampage thing off the top of my head (not % dmg at least, dont know a skill that uses %'s)
But if you wanted to do bonus damage, you could base the rampage skill off of bash, then set stun chance to 0.

Don't give up, its all about trial and error.

Ahh now i have really spent long time trying :/ i think it's a way too complicated trigger to work with, as a complete newbie. Didn't understand the integer thing either :s
- Can't you make it and copy+paste it, just with random values? and use command aura or something for %+ dmg ^^

- i'm stuck at:

Events: Unit - A unit dies

Conditions: ((Killing Unit) is A Hero) Equel to ((Killing unit) has buff Rampage)

Actions: -

@_@

For conditions.. just using (killing unit) has buff (rampage).. assuming that only heros will have this buff..
