Sleeping wolves wake hungry.
Seeing as that last attempt failed, let's try that again...
THIS IS ANNOYING.
Half the time, when you build a zealot, the triggers don't work.
What it's meant to do is make the hydralisk invincible, spawn two waves of lurkers that attack a burrowed ling under the hydra and then remove the lurkers.
Yes, I realise the entire thing is extremely messy, I don't care right at this moment.
Could someone tell me why the fudge this doesn't work?

Instead of 'exactly 12 deaths', try 'at least 12 deaths', and make another switch of course.
None.

Perfick. I guess hyper trigger cycles go too fast for the game to detect the death count, am I right?
Sorry for wasting your time.
If you weren't being sarcastic, you clear switch 1 at 24 deaths, but you reset the deaths at 36 deaths, so you actually never hit the reset (which is what you need for the triggers to run again). So, don't clear switch 1 at 24 deaths or change where you reset the deaths back to 0.
Clear switch 1 on your very last trigger (where deaths is at least 36). You could also do this whole system with no switch--by death counts only.

No, I wasn't being sarcastic.
I thought FTS' suggestion sorted it, but I guess I was wrong - it seems that there's only one wave of lurkers on each cast after the first.
Thanks, Fwop_.

No. Death count changes are detected instantaneous. Even within the same trigger loop.
Bring (if not updated with, move unit/location or remove/kill unit) and Commands are the actions that lag 1-2 trigger loops behind.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically
NudeRaider -- to clarify: couldn't recall the behavior for every single Protoss building but I was aware the disparity exists.
