Is there a way to get a certain amount of minerals every time you kill a unit, without making a ton of

"When Current Player Kills 1 men"
"When Current Player Kills 2 men"
"When Current Player Kills 3 men"
etc... triggers?

My map will essentially have heroes killing computer units and getting 1 mineral for each kill (individual, so if you don't kill, you don't get money), however my dilemma is that I want this trigger to work infinitely.
I was thinking of using a death counter (computer has suffered X deaths), but I don't see how I can get that to work so that only the player who killed the unit gets minerals.



None.

MAPLANTIS FTW!

Is it possible/probable that multiple units will be killed at once by a single player in your map?



None.

K, Thank you. It's possible, but not going to happen often enough to make a huge difference.



None.

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

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 Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it.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

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?

Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
