I dont seem to be getting the proper responses from my triggers when I use forces instead of individual players sometime.

Con:
Force 1 command 0 unit
Force 2 command 0 unit

Action:
Something


It'll fire even if a player from force 2 has the unit.



None.

Well, this may consider this problem.

What other triggers do you have? Yes, this might matter.

Dont you have the pattern?
1. Check whether some player commands a unit at location.
2. Create a unit at location.
3. Check whether a player commands a unit at the same location.

Anyways more detailed triggers (including actions and owners) would be appreciated.



Some.

I'm embarrassed hehe. Was the simple create unit problem. Odd thing was it was working when Force 1 commanded 0 unit but not Force 2. Anyways I set a small counter to give some space between creation and detection. Thanks.

Bring updates as soon as you kill or remove the unit (within the same trigger loop).
Use bring instead of commands and you don't need a counter to delay detection.

Actually, creating a unit doesn't update it, removing them does, removing, moving a location, and killing units are the best ways to easily update it.

I invite you to try out the map I modified. I don't have the creativity to create maps from scratch, but I do have the know-how to modify existing ones; my project is to tweak community campaigns (specifically those with errors—to make them playable.

Ultraviolet shouted: Mr.BurnLiquid actually yeah though I wasn't really saying it to narc on you. It just caught me off guard because I don't usually see it (because it's against the rules) "The avatar may not be bigger than 150x150 pixels". Kinda silly that it relies on users to be well behaved rather than just limiting the dimensions on uploads :lol:
Now that I wanted to change my avatar, the error image is showing up, haha.

I invite you to try out a mission I'm modifying from *StarCraft Reversed*; I'm trying to make it more playable and challenging.
