So I'm having trouble with a trigger thats for a zone control based map im working on and what the trigger is suppose to do is if a type of bunker is brought to a region then it is suppose to make a marine at another region to indicate a bunker has been placed there. Similar to how it was in zone control ultra with the flags. This is the trigger.

My Trigger

Code

A2
Events
Unit - Any Unit Enters zone_A2
Local Variables
Conditions
(Unit type of (Triggering unit)) == Hideout
Or
Conditions
(Unit type of (Triggering unit)) == Fort
Or
Conditions
(Unit type of (Triggering unit)) == Shelter
Actions
------- Player 1
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 1
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 1 at (Center of mass_A2) facing 270.0 degrees (No Options)
Else
------- Player 2
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 2
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 2 at (Center of mass_A2) facing 270.0 degrees (No Options)
Else
------- Player 3
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 3
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 3 at (Center of mass_A2) facing 270.0 degrees (No Options)
Else
------- Player 4
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 4
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 4 at (Center of mass_A2) facing 270.0 degrees (No Options)
Else
------- Player 5
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 5
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 5 at (Center of mass_A2) facing 270.0 degrees (No Options)
Else
------- Player 6
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 6
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 6 at (Center of mass_A2) facing 270.0 degrees (No Options)
Else
------- Player 7
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 7
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 7 at (Center of mass_A2) facing 270.0 degrees (No Options)
Else
------- Player 8
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Owner of (Triggering unit)) == 8
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 8 at (Center of mass_A2) facing 270.0 degrees (No Options)
Else

I tried to make it so it would only be 1 trigger for each zone as there are 68 zones and I would hate to have to make 8+ triggers for each zone.

I'm currently making a zone control, and the only way I found to do so far is this:

My Zone Control Triggers

Code

A-2

Conditions
(Number of Living units in (Units in (Units in Bunkers within A-2, with at most Any Amount) owned by player (Triggering player), with at most Any Amount)) > 0
Actions
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Number of Living units in (Units in (Units in Bunkers within A-2, with at most Any Amount) owned by player 1, with at most Any Amount)) > 0
Then
Unit - Create 1 Marine for player 1 at (Center of A-2) using default facing (No Options)
Else
General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
If
(Number of Living units in (Units in (Units in Bunkers within A-2, with at most Any Amount) owned by player 2, with at most Any Amount)) > 0

Else

The problem is that there isn't really a "unit stays in region" condition.

You could also have a trigger set the flag owners number to a variable, and have a different trigger spawn units every x seconds for the owner of the flag. I'll type that up really quick.

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.
